I liked the first one so much I had to brew another. I am using oak spirals this time.
Instead of the 3 week soak with the oak chips, I've gone 6 1/2 weeks. BIG DIFFERENCE. This batch tastes like wood. Pure wood. No porter flavor is coming through, it's just wood. I mentioned it to one of the ZEALOTS, they had the opinion that the wood flavor will lessen over time and suggested that I wait a year. I may try to see if I can blend this with another beer and find someway of making it taste worthwhile.
