Hey,
I'm looking into investing in a small 10 gallon barrel from a nearby cooperage. Does anybody have any personal experience with small barrels that they'd like to share? There doesn't seem to be any articles about long term results from small barrels anywhere.
There is a BYO article that surveys commercial barrel users, and they all seem to caution against small barrels because of increaced oxegen diffusion, but, is this actually an issue? If you own & use a small barrel, speak up!
