need some suggestions, want to do some experiments before bottling

[ZipoX]

Hi to all of you!
I want to do some experiments with the beer before bottling, I think I want to try to mix it with cinnamon, honey, lemon and vanilla (not all of them together, every single thing in a bottle). I want to see what tast will I have in my beer.
My question is how to do it?

For the spices I would make a tea with them by soaking them in boiling water and letting it cool before adding it to the beer. I have done this with pumpkin spices for a pumpkin ale. For the lemon I would zest it (yellow only not down to the white) and mix it with a little vodka and add that. Vanilla if you are using an actual bean I would split it with a knife and scrape the inside off, and put the paste from the inside in a little vodka and then add that. You could also probably split a small section of the bean and soak the whole bean. Honey you would probably add to the bottle instead of priming sugar...Very little bit? Not sure on that one.

And rather just add them willy-nilly, I'd get a medicine dropper or pipette and add drops to 1-2oz of beer at a time to dial in the flavor that you're looking for. Then, scale up to 12oz for the final, full-bottle additions.

first of all yes, I am working on my first batch, but i want to try some experiments because I have 20L of beer, it's a lot.
seconde of all, what is the meaning of K.I.S.S?

OK thanks, but you didnt understand me, I dont want to make it special, I just want to see what happens to the beer, to tast and to use it in the future in my own recipe. just to experiment!!

buy several 1 gallon jugs. separate the beer into the jugs (fill each about half way) then add your test ingredients. stick an airlock on them and let them go for a week or two. then taste and bottle.
