Has anyone here tried to ferment cider in barrels? In the fall, I'm going to make a couple batches and was thinking of making one in a barrel. I've read I need to do it in the carboy for a couple months first, then finish off in a barrel and let it sit for 6 months to 6 years.
Sounds interesting, but would like first hand accounts.
