Notes

Once primary fermentation is complete, prepare the vanilla beans for secondary fermentation in the following manner...

Slice two beans lengthwise and open them up.

Scrape the tar-like interior out of the husks and put it (along w/ the husks) into the bottom of a clean and sanitized vessel.

Rack the beer on top of the vanilla beans.

Wait 2-4 weeks for the vanilla to extract into the beer.
