I brewed an oatmeal stout this weekend. Bubbling away! I am considering adding bourbon soaked oak chips to the secondary, but I have heard a little goes a long way with oak chips. I have done oak soaked in rum for a porter but only added the rum. Anyone have any experience with oak chips?
I've used them a few times. Put them in a mason jar with the bourbon for 10-14 days. Dump the whole jar into your beer after primary fermentation is completed. Leave for about a week. Taste periodically to see if it needs more or less time.
Sounds like a good beer to me!

Thanks for the info! So you put it in the primary? I usually do a secondary but I have been told it doesn't make that big a difference with a stout.
