The dominos I got are all cut so across the grain.
This is not good :(
Guess I now need to chop it up finer to get more long grain.
Seriously, get on the group buy dominoes... They are goooood.

Yes they probably would taste the end product but as Brendan said they wouldn't have started with oak tasting like that to end up with that end product.
If you truly want to replicate the taste you probably wouldn't use it.
It's a good sell for the HBS to say "soak these chips in 40% booze for a week and it will taste like the real deal" which it probably does to a degree.
But ask yourself this, why don't these guys re use their barrels? ;-)

What would be the procedure for getting the JD staves ready to use :think:
Would you scraper the old charr off and plain 3/5 mm off all sides to take it back to virgin oak ???
Then retoast or charr in oven or with torch......
Would think if you did nothing apart from cut into dominos all the goodness would be already sucked out of the oak.
