The Barrel Mill

Think of taking a straight barrel and putting downward force on it. Slightest side motion will cause it to collapse. That's why eggs aren't straight sided, and PETA would probably have a problem with how bad it would hurt a chicken to lay one.

The sides being curved also add to the strength when on it's side. Just as the keystone you mentioned. Barrells laying flat will collapse if not filled with product, once you reach a certain height.

True!

Love the egg analogy

If you are doing small to medium volume...this little guy rocks

I was set up next to them at a trade show and was amazed

Gentlemen-

Over the past few years the demand for our charred barrels for ADI craft distilleries has exploded.

Thanks for all the support, and we hope to continue being your cooperage supplier for many years!

The past several months we have been sold out of 10/15 and now 5 gallon barrels. 30's are in stock now.

Specs- 12 month air dried Northern American Oak, full 1" staves, #3 char, charred heads, very tight cooperage, oak bungs included in price

We are doing a large production run for these sizes, and we expect to have inventory in 4-6 weeks.

Place your order today to insure your position in the run, as these barrels will not last long.

A verbal P.O. will suffice.

Terms are Net 30 days after delivery...with approved credit.

Do not hesitate to contact me with any questions, or to place an order.

Cheers-

Richard Hobbs
