Can you use these to flavor homemade craft beer, or are chemicals added to be used for bbq only?

A lot of the really good home brewers are using these so yes you definitely can. Instead of copying their posts I will refer you to the forum... http://www.homebrewtalk.com/f12/jack-daniels-oak-barrell-chips-207780/

No chemicals added that I know of, but I wouldn't add these to beer- the blocks are very dirty and have some soot on them. I would stick to bbq only for this.

I wouldn't use this to craft beer. These are the wood chips from the barrels, which aren't totally clean, but are good for smoking in a bbq.

never used them for that but we did use them on the grill for everything we wanted to cook. I would try it for sure.

I have never used them for beer, only soda. It makes warm drinks cold but it does takes a few minutes. If the drinks are already cold they get slushy in about the same amount of time.

A common 2 or 3 gallon stainless steel cook pot will do just fine for making beer with the Coopers kits as long as you make them per their instructions and don't add your own embellishments. Good luck and cheers!

No. None what so ever from the briquettes as they are ceramic. If you have dripped bbq sauce or the 'drippings' from previous cookings onto the briquettes, then you might get some 'flavor' from the drippings until they are burned off.

That's a good question. Unfortunately, I know nothing about brewing beer so I am unable to give you an answer. Sorry

No, they do not have the wax rim inside and can't be used for brewing. These bottle caps are for crafts only.

I use it for my BBQ rub...I guess you would have to create a thick simple syrup and then add the maple powder to taste. I have no clue excep to say that a tablespoon or two should make a Qt of flavored syrup?

Absolutely! Use like a regular BBQ. Smoke depends on fuel you use. I use mesquite chips for extra flavor! Enjoy!

You can use it in anything you want to flavor. I have used it to make sodas, rootbeer flavored chex mix and muddy buddies, and I flavor vapor liquid for e-cigarettes.

Never tried them for a bbq grill. May check into that this evening. I used them for a gas Amana stove

They have no flavor. I spice the water that I reconstitute them in; soy sauce, cumin, basil, oregano, cayenne, etc. depending on what I am going to use them in.

I didn't use them in a smoker, just in a regular grill, the flavor comes through nicely on anything!

These are meant for shots...but if you want people to only taste a little of the beer then they would work. I use them for Mini Beer shots and that is not beer it's Licor 43 and whipping cream

Hi Curt , I would think you would have to burn them on there own? If you have done that not sure : ( But we used ours for our BBQ smoker as they put out great heat .

HI! There are all kinds of options you can use for your preference. You can marinade before you bbq or sprinkle a few drops and rub it over the meat before cooking. Some like to add the flavoring after cooking. A couple drops do go a long ways and it can get a little bitter flavor if you use too many drops but it's how to your taste. I like to apply mine before bbq but it can be anytime. :)

There is no special flavor ingredient in the bars. The idea is that the bars get hot from the flames by resting over the tubes. This heat causes the juices from the cooking food to vaporize and impart flavor.
