I have 15 gallon demijohns I will be putting oak chips into. I have four of them, so I figure that I'll try some different toasts and steeping durations. I have some thoughts on what I'll do, but I figured that I'd check in with the board to see if there is anyone out there that has anything interesting to try, or reccomendations for my Cab. marco

I use StaVin oak cubes. Someone in this group turned me onto them and I've liked the flavour and ease of use (as opposed to chips which clog my pump motor). They have a few different toasts (Medium, Medium +, and heavy (I think)) and are reasonably priced at 10$/lb in bulk (American Oak). French is 2.4x that cost.
