Abstract
The present invention relates to a portable system for reconditioning used barrels, in particular used wine barrels. The present inventor has realised a need in the wine industry for a portable system of reconditioning barrels which would provide a vineyard owner, for example, with the ability to have used barrels reconditioned within a day or two on site, as opposed to weeks or longer in the case of barrels transported to and from a cooperage facility. What is disclosed is a mobile barrel reconditioning system including at least a portable shaving apparatus to uniformly shave a predetermined depth of material from an internal surface of said barrel to thereby form a new internal surface, and a portable toasting apparatus to recondition said new internal surface ready for re-use. In a preferred form of the invention, the system includes a portable crozing apparatus.
