Description

Medium Plus toast cubes manufactured by StaVin. Cubes have a longer contact time than traditional chips do, which make them better for long-term aging of wines and beers. Also, longer contact time means longer extraction of flavors (3-6 months), which leads to a more complex combination of flavors. Chips are usually done giving flavor after a week, there by contributing a harsh, flat oak flavor.

Our cubes are fires toasted and cut by Stavin, a leading supplier of high-quality oak alternatives to top commercial wineries.

Is this white oak or red oak ?
Ryan Pappas on Jan 29, 2023
BEST ANSWER: The packaging doesn't indicate what species it is. But I would assume it's white since that is far a more common material in barrels due to it's tighter grain.

I like the Smaller Cube Size
These American Oak cubes are smaller that what I received in the past, which were quite a bit larger that the French Oak cubes. I like the smaller size because it exposes more surface area than the large cubes. I use 2/3 French and 1/3 American for 3-6 months in stainless tanks.

Great product
Love the product, hate the packaging. Why bother with a "re-sealable" zip lock type closure on the bag if it's so poorly designed it never fully closes? This problem exists across the entire Cellar Science product line. The cheap silver zip bags that don't zip need to be replaced with something that works as well as the cubes.

Great product for small Home wineries.
I can’t afford barrels, so these really help give my wine some nice oak structure and tannins... leaving the impression that it had spent time in an actual barrel! Very easy to sanitize and use in my 6gal. carboys.
