Notes

(Notes from my Original Recipe, man has my knowledge grown since this first batch!)

I like to add the Lactose in the last 15 minutes of the boil. I've switched from adding the Vanilla to the boil to adding it into the primary Fermenter, in English, I retain a lot of the taste of Vanilla that from when I was adding to the boil. This should have a decent balance.
