Attjack My experience with a 3L is in progress. I have 3L of Buffalo Trace aging right now, since Dec 7th. tasted it the other day (at about 2 weeks) and it was different but only slightly. My game plan was to go 3 months and try it. I'm sure I'd try it at 2 months like ecowper, but based on my experience with my small 1L I think I want to go a little longer. With my 1L I went 1 month for half & 2 months for the other half and that was enough to make a big difference (sooo good!). But, the smaller the barrel the quicker it all goes, hence my plan to go about 3 with the bigger 3L.

Huskee each time you reuse that barrel it’s going to take longer to pick up the same amount of Oak flavors. When we use 53 gallon barrels for aging beer, the first batch will go about 3, the second about 6, and a year after that.Comment
