Good product but mistake in packaging
The chips were good. I use them in my fermenter to help drive off some of the "green" flavors in the must when fermenting. I was disappointed with the package however. Most of the time Morewine is excellent but this time I was disappointed to find that my package of chips that was supposed to contain 454-grams of chips only contained 442-grams. If I hadn't had to split the package between two fermenters I probably wouldn't have noticed. Batch #56999

Great stuff. I use French Heavy Toast.
Good product, give great complexity to my homemade grape wine. I ferment grapes on skins and use the oak in fermentation stage.
Then after 40 day racking I add oak at a rate of 6 oz for every 10 gals. This year I made 40 gals of Zinfandel,Syrah,Barbera blend back in Sept. Wine will now sit on oak which I put into straining bags for easy removal for approx 60 days until next racking.
I taste every 2 weeks and May remove earlier if desired oak flavor is achieved.
