I am thinking about doing a Vanilla Porter next. I have searched and read several posts on the process of using Vanilla beans. I think I am going to split two beans and soak them in Vodka for a few weeks.
My question is, would I still get a good vanilla flavor if I just dumped my vodka soaked beans (and the vodka) in the bottling bucket at bottling time, instead of racking my Porter on them in a Secondary?
Wouldnt the flavor of the two mix well, while in bottles, since I wont drink them for atleast a month anyway?
