Amburana Infusion Spirals - Light Toast

Bring warm, layered character to your beer, wine, or mead with Amburana Infusion Spirals in a light toast. Crafted from Brazilian Oak (Amburana cearensis), these spirals provide fast, consistent flavor extraction and deliver distinctive aromatics including vanilla, gingerbread, and soft herbal notes. Designed to achieve barrel-like depth without the equipment, they integrate smoothly into fermentation or aging and develop full flavor expression in roughly six weeks.

Amburana is prized for its naturally high vanillin content, which produces sweet aromatics and a rounded mouthfeel when used at light toast levels. The wood’s signature spice profile contributes complexity without overpowering the base beverage, making it well suited for specialty beers, robust wines, and meads that benefit from gentle warmth and spice. Its character also complements dark malts, fruit additions, and honey-based fermentations.

Each spiral is milled to a one-inch diameter and engineered with a helical shape that maximizes surface area for efficient, even extraction. The spirals are intended for single use, as wood loses its flavoring capacity after a full extraction cycle. Brewers and winemakers can adjust contact time to modulate intensity, using shorter exposure for subtle enhancement or the full aging period for a more pronounced Amburana signature.

Available for both 1-gallon and 5–6-gallon batch sizes, these spirals offer a controlled, repeatable way to incorporate Amburana wood character into your process. They install easily in carboys, fermenters, or aging vessels and provide a reliable alternative to traditional barrels while maintaining the nuance and complexity associated with wood aging.
