Customer Reviews
I had been searching for a small scale solution to barrel aging for a long time. 5 gallon barrels typically have too much surface area and oxygen exposure to get the same effects as a standard size barrel. I reached out to Chris and he answered all of my questions!! He was very helpful when I told him about my process and what I wanted to get out of the product. I would highly recommend this for anyone homebrewing that’s looking to barrel age their beers.
Received a few weeks ago, followed instructions included in the box (very helpful). Wine grapes arrive in a few weeks. Going to try my hand at a Bordeaux style blend with this barrel.
Excellent quality and craftsmanship. Christopher answered all my questions and provided suggestions before I purchased my BMB. All my homebrew friends are jealous. I’m sure my barrel will last many years.
I've previously ordered a 1.8 gallon French oak barrel to age a sauvignon blanc brandy and the results are amazing, even just after 6 months. This 5 gallon barrel has been just put down to age a chenin blanc / colombard blend and I'm really excited to see how this goes.
Exactly as described. Easy to use
