I am interested in oaking my next batch if wine. Problem is I have never done so before and have no clue how, what kind, and for how long. For example the wine I want to try is a 1gal batch of welches. Any ideas, suggestions?
DoctorCAD said:Oaking Welches is waste of oak, but if you want to try, get some oak cubes in different styles from your favorite home brew shop and let the wine sit on them for 2 weeks. There will be oak flavor, its up to you to find the oak you like.
My favorite is light toasted Hungarian oak. Just not in welches...
Would this be because its a cheap wine or the already present tannins in the juice?
