Curing Your oak Barrel First rinse the inside of the oak barrel by filling and emptying 2 times to remove any wood debris. Prior to use, your oak barrel must be filled with water or submerged for approximately 1 to 2 days. This will allow the oak to expand and retain liquid. (the barrel may leak until cured) After this initial curing period, place the barrel on the holder in a dry area. Liquid will continue to slowly drain through the wood for the following 1 to 2 days. Keep the barrel filled during this time. When the oak barrel stops draining, empty the contents and rinse again. You are now ready to fill with your spirits.
