I have searched around and I have not found anything on this yet (if this has been discussed a million times, my apologies and please point me to those pages.)
Today there was a featured instructible about how to make bacon whiskey by putting whiskey and bacon in a whip cream dispenser then charging the canister with nitrogen. I was curious if this could be done with hops or if any one has done this with chocolate, coffee, vanilla, or anything else? If so what have you had success with and what has been a disappointment? I'd also like to hear about your method (did you use water, alcohol or something else in the dispenser?)
I was thinking at the very least if the cost/yield ratio is too large for a 5/10 gallon batch and if the product of this process tastes >=90% of what a infusion in the secondary would be, you could feasibly infuse a few bottles as a test to see what a batch would taste like with whatever your trying to infuse.
