I make various wood āessencesāā¦.& spices too. I just pack a small jar with whichever thing I want n add 55% spirit in to it. Fill up the jar. Use drops of the āessenceā in a 40% spirit, till it tastes good.
Another option isā¦.I speed up the āagingā by popping it into the fridge n out again. 24/stepā¦.it speeds things up HUGELY.

Hey Jesse. I had a 1.2M long (just a bit shorter now) 4"x2" of white oak from City Timber down here in Welly. Missus not too happy about the smell coming out of the oven but I explained why.."Jessie said I had to" Thanks for the awesome vids, ran my first ever run (like first ever) and on a T500 kit. Got lots of tips and confidence from your vids and having a lot of fun beginning the distillers journey.

Quick question: at what point is the oak not worth keeping anymore? Sure, second use is valuable, but at what point should you just pitch it? Third, fourth, fifth use? Presuming, of course, that youāve gone a decent length of time with it in spirit for each use and used a decent amount of wood to the amount of spirit it was in. Whatās a good way to tell when the woodās been āused upā?

Love it Jesse! I was curious if you've ever tried or considered soaking the toasted/charred oak in Sherry to impart those flavors into a spirit? I absolutely adore sherried Scotches like Aberlour A'bunadh but the risk of oxidation in a 6Gal barrel leaved me concerned I'll ruin a large batch of Golden Promise. Keep the videos coming my friend I always appreciate learning more about this hobby!

Hell of a video, Jesse! I work at a cooperage in the US that deals with a lot of wood flavoring products and makes a lot of toasted wood for flavoring spirits. You nailed everything on your prep! Well done. With that being said you forgot one small but crucial step š boiling it!
