280-402: Is the most common size for an ale cask. As part of the barrel-making process , the cask needs to be steamed to soften and loosen lignin in the wood, and it is then toasted. Toasting develops the flavours of the sugars in the wood, that is the cellulose and hemicellulose . Then the barrel is charred, which involves exposing it to 1,300 °F (704 °C) for 45 seconds. A wine barrel

Whaling ships usually carried
756-418: The wine. Barrels were sometimes used for military purposes. Julius Caesar used catapults to hurl barrels of burning tar into towns under siege to start fires.

They were made of Pyrenean silver fir and the staves were one and
