I made an 5g extract kit of a basic robust porter and wanted to try and add some vanilla flavor. Well I lazied out and went with two onces of madagascar bourbon vanilla extract. The problem is now I have a medicine like smell and taste to the beer and no vanilla taste whatsoever! I added the vanilla straight to my corny keg and has been setting in keezer for two weeks with little to no change in flavor. Will this go away? will the vanilla flavor devolpe after time? If not I was going to attempt to add some cold steeped coffee and bourban to the beer to mask the off flavor? Or is that a bad idea as well. lol
