Hey all, first post so go easy on me!
I'm about to begin my second home brew - a vanilla milk stout. I'm planning on going with real vanilla bean, but can I supplement it with vanilla extract?
Also, when should I add it, my guess is either in the last 10-15 minutes or when I put it the beer in the fermenting bucket.
Lastly, I'm shooting for a mid-level vanilla taste - enough to definitely taste it, but not enough to overpower, any recommendations on how much to use in a 5 gallon brew?
