Featured Craftsman Jim Gaster from Beaver Buckets is a cooper – or someone who makes buckets and barrels out of wood. The largest wine barrel in the world is the Heidelberg Tun, located in the cellars of Heidelberg Castle in Germany. Its current capacity is 219,000 liters (57,853.6795 U.S. gallons). One hundred and thirty oak trees were reputedly used in its construction. It has only rarely been used as a wine barrel, and in fact presently enjoys more use as a tourist attraction, and also as a dance floor since one was constructed on top of the tun.
