What I have fermenting
2lbs Rahr 2-row

6lbs Wheat Malt Syrup
1oz Summit
1oz Cascade
1oz Centennial

I've made this Porter for my long-time girlfriends 30th birthday coming up in August. She loves Breckenridge's Vanilla Porter, and obviously I'm not trying to mimic that but I'm wondering if anyone has experience adding Vanilla to a Chocolate-based beer. I'd really like to add that vanilla dimension; if it's feasible?
If it is, I have 5 sealed vanilla pods. Any suggestions as to when to add, how much and do I need to sanitize them?
Thanks for any imput
