Storage Jars?

[Jolly John]

What jars/vessels are you guys using for storing and ageing?

I'm partial to the good ol quart mason jars myself.

I have a couple small barrels but also have a 4 gallon mason jar, a 2 gallon mason jar, 2 quart mason jars, and several 1 gallon old pickle jars

I store in glass, quart mason/ball jars and 1 gal. jugs. I age in wood barrels. there's lots of good info on here about aging in glass with wood cubes or sticks.

Thanks for the quick response! In the UK, it seems that 1 gallon demijohns are more or less the only choice, they are fine for long term ageing, but the narrow neck makes them a PITA for getting oak sticks in and out.

Barrels and Quart Mason jars. The mason jars are nice because a big chunk of wood drops in the top, I use 1x1x5" sticks of toasted and charred white oak, 1 per quart.

Wide mouth gallon or 1/2 gallon Mason jars for aging
stuffed with charred oak sticks - I tend to used
8 or 10 3/4" x 3/4" per gallon and age for between 3 and 4 months.

Storage is in whatever commercial bottles I have on hand,
we prefer 1/2 gallon sizes at home and fifths for travel.
