Considering the set up I have is for 5 gallon batches and for an imperial stout may go down to 3 gallons this may take a while LOL

Buy a small barrel, make a batch of whiskey and age it, then use the barrel for stout from then on. lol

Cool, ten years from now, when the whiskey is aged properly, I'll have a barrel for stout.

is it even legal to distill whiskey as an individual, dont want the revenuers comming after you for making moonshine LOL

damn the small 5 gallons are $95 and not even ready to use. Might as well get the cool JD version and not fill it up very high.

What has to be done to get them ready to use? My wife loves a good stout (heh) and would be curious to see if there was a cool way to ferment them.

They have to be charred on the inside, and then filled with water until they expand enough so that they don't leak.

Although there's not much point if they don't already have the bourbony goodness going on.

Yeah during the jd tour they talk about beer companies and foreign distilleries buying them just for the taste. They only use new.
