Description

Convection toasted Oak Cubes made in the US from French Oak.

These Oak Cubes impart similar flavors as the equivalent oak type and toast level chip, but extract more slowly giving you more control over the final impact in your beer.

These cubes are produced from staves of French oak that have been air-seasoned for 18-24 months, then toasted to a Medium Toast. They will add a sweet, butterscotch note with hints of Vanilla and Spice to your beer.

Suggested dosage is 2-4 oz per 5 gallons of beer.

This is my go to oak, I love it. When I am trying to polish up a mead this is what I use.

I like medium toast french oak and this was a less expensive alternative to the other cubes. I like cubes because I tend to leave my red wine on oak for at least 6 months

Should these cubes be soaked in potassium metabisulfite before being put into a 5-gallon carboy?
Peter M. C on Oct 3, 2020
BEST ANSWER: Some people do recommend treating the oak cubes with potassium metabisulfite solution. Pambianchi "Techniques in Home Winemaking" (2012) recommends just rinsing in cool water. At pp. 334-335. I have done it both ways. My recommendation is to use metabisulfite if you are treating wine (i.e. late stage addition) and that either method can be used during primary fermentation.
Does Stavin produce these cubes?
