Saturday: Rack RIS to 2ndary on top of oak chips, vanilla, and bourbon. Taste a sample! Make starter for Sunday's Hefe.
Questions for those who can help: For my RIS, I wanted to 2ndary for about 3 months, but I am racking on oak chips, vanilla beans soaking in bourbon. I have the vanilla beans soaking in bourbon now; I cut and scraped them. IF, I do this, I would only be able to 2ndary for 2 weeks, since the oak chips will give off flavors faster than cubes. Is there any problem to racknig to my 2ndary and then 1 month- 2 months later, add in my chips, vanilla, and bourbon? There isn't concern with my vanilla soaking that long in the bourbon I presume. Thanks
