Ed's Head Vanilla Porter
Brown Porter • All Grain • 11 gal
This has the makings of a very good beer...I am going to make 10 gallons and then split it at secondary and add vanilla beans to both batches. For the last 5 days before kegging, I am going to add to one of them some oak chips and then add some Jim Beam at kegging to make a Vanilla Bourbon Porter. Going to brew this next week. Have used this base recipe before to make a smoked porter which was fantastic
