Working on an idea for this Maple Bourbon Vanilla recipe....
Thinking of replacing a portion of the honey in primary with a quality local maple syrup and for the bourbon vanilla flavors making a madagascar vanilla extract with the bourbon instead of vodka or other clear liquor.
maybe racking it onto some toasted or charred oak later for aging
it's still all in the concept phase of planning
My question is, and these are just random hypothetical quantities right now. If I add 1 cup per gallon of the bourbon/vanilla extract how would I factor that into figuring out what my final abv would be?
any assistance with the numbers, as well as any suggestions or tips from anyone that has tried something similar will be greatly appreciated
