After 5 years at this, I again find myself in new territory. We bought a bunch of NEW cooperage due to a stunning lack of sixtels on the used market, and now I'm wondering if there's a special "first cleaning" regimen that's recommended for new cooperage?
Acid cycle? Passivation? Something to get the residuals of fabrication (oils, welding debris, whatever) out of them?
Any suggestions of experiences would be most helpful.
Cheers,
Scott
