It's a really good idea to do this as picking stray oak chips out of your tubing or bottling wand will be a pain in the ass. So a handy tip is to place the chips into a clean and sterile hop bag and then weigh the bag down with something heavy and inert such as a glass marble or three. Wood chips are probably going to float and that means a lot of oak will be making contact with the air in the fermenter and not imparting oaky goodness into the beer. Chips offer a greater surface area that's exposed to the beer than cubes. Wood chips are essentially shards of wood that you add to your fermenter or secondary in order to achieve the level of barrel flavor you desire. Your local homebrew store may have all three readily available on hand but Amazon will see you right too. We prefer chips over cubes as you get more surface area exposure. Instead of using an actual oak barrel or the staves of one, these three options are handy methods for a homebrewer to add wood flavor and aroma to ‘barrel age’ their beer. With a Lifton style case with COA, it's perfect for collectors and player alike, this Gibson Custom Les Paul is testament to the timeless design crafted by Les Paul all those years ago.Should I use wood chips or cubes or spirals?
