Excellent! I've been wondering how well these worked! Thanks for the video.

I use "nuclear" aging with Jack Daniels BBQ chips, which are JD barrel stave chips .I learned this technique from an internet distilling forum, and it works incredibly well Put an inch or so of chips in a quart jar and the fill the jar with white dog. Then put the jar in a microwave on high (without a lid of course) for 2 minutes. Remove the jar (use pot holders!) and put a lid and band on it and let it cool. When cool, remove the band and lid, which will seal by the vacuum that forms on cooling. The vacuum seems to extract both color and aroma from the JD chips. Nuke and cool twice more . After the third time, pour the whiskey off. You could do the same thing with the spirals , and get the color, but the aroma and flavor from JD chips is pretty special!

Cool man thanks for posting. Im gonna use this in a beer. Bourbon barrel ales are popular here this time of year.

What are those bottles called? Great video!

You age store-bought vodka which is at 40% ABV ideally to age alcohol you want to be between 50 and 60% ABV then you proof it down to between 48 to 40% ABV

You have to let it go for weeeeeks when you put the prescribed amount

Spirals do not age spirit it oaks it.
