Notes

Add grains to muslin bag, tie open end. Steep grains in 45 minutes in 5.5 gallons hot water (150-155 degF); then remove muslin/grain bag.
Add liquid malt extracts and stir until uniform--may have to heat malt extract jars/bags in hot water to make less viscous and easier to pour.
Heat to boil, add hops/flavoring agents as organized (start at 60 minute mark, then stop/kick boil at 0 minute mark).
Cool as capable to equipment (if using ice, use 18# ice and remove 2.25 gallons water from start boil).
Pour wort in sanitized fermenter, pitch yeast as desired (at 68-85 deg F). Ferment (primary) for 2-3 weeks; add vanilla beans & cocoa nibs soaked in bourbon (you can add extra bourbon if you wish). Ferment (secondary) for 1-2 weeks. Rack and bottle, let bottle-prime for 10-14 days.

Did this get as much bourbon flavor as you wanted? I am putting together a recipe for a cherry chocolate vanilla bourbon stout and am looking at your adjucts as a base.
