To refurbish an old wine barrel for new winemaking, first, clean the barrel thoroughly by rinsing it with hot water to remove residue and sanitize it. Next, inspect for leaks and repair them using barrel wax or new hoops if necessary. Then, soak the barrel in water for several days to swell the wood and seal any small leaks. Finally, if desired, rechar the interior to enhance flavor profiles, and it will be ready for use.

A new 59 gallon oak barrel weighs about 120 lbs when empty. 600 lbs when full of wine. Used barrels weigh more due to the wine/spirit that has soaked into the grain. The weight can vary due to shape, construction and forest source. Barrels should always be filled on specially made racks. Don't attempt to lift a full barrel(s) without a forklift, a loaded 2-barrel rack can weigh 1250 lbs.
There is no fool proof way. Get a new battery if putting it on a slow charger does not work.
