news:KwgEf.527239$084.463928@attbi_s22... I purchased 4 55 gal white oak barrels from a winery they have been used twice, What should use to clean them ?? That depends on how well they've been maintained. If they're clean (free of spoilage organisms) gassed with SO2 and bunged tight, all you need to do is rinse them with cold water, drain them and fill them with wine. Tom S www.chateauburbank.com |

Tom S www.chateauburbank.com Tom gives good advice. I will go a bit further. If the barrels are not free of spoilage organisms, gassed with SO2 and bunged tight, you really don't want to use the barrels for winemaking. Good luck, -- Lum Del Mar, California, USA |

Good luck, We have good luck using our single use Bourbon barrels. They are freshly dumped and require no washing. If your barrels are fresh and have been emptied correctly they should be OK. However it is my experience that wineries don't get rid of barrels that can be used for another batch. Kentucky Barrels http://www.kentuckybarrels.com |
