Beer Forum

I am very interested in wood aging, cooperage and the science behind it.

My problem is, I can´t really find a good source of information on it. Meaning books. I read articles here and there but there´s nothing definitive on the subject. Does anyone any other source of information?

Maybe I´ll have to jump into the wine world for that, right?

Any suggestions? Any book recommendations?

I recently listened to an ACS Webinar on wood aging and it´s very good. Here´s the link:

It's pretty easy, just don't leave the books on oak too long. Sorry, that's all I've got this morning.

This doesn't cover all the topics you mentioned but there should be some info of use here
