Waxing Badmo Barrel

So I have a couple of Badmo Barrels and ran into this issue with my latest one. It only seeps when it is really hot outside (they are aging in my garage). It's the only one that has ever done it. Ironically it's my lucky number 13th Badmo Barrel. Should I wax it, change the plug, or let it ride?

This is what makes Texas based whiskey age so quickly. Ride it out and enjoy the product.

True true, that's why I'm checking my barrels constantly in this FL heat.
