I racked this into the secondary today. Break four vanilla bean pods into pieces then rack the beer on top. I plan to let it sit for 3 weeks. The S.G. was 1.015
Kegged

I kegged the beer tonight. The F.G. was 1.012. The still version is very good. It tastes very much like I hoped. The dark malt and the vanilla compliment each other very well. Nest time I will add chocolate and or molasses.

This beer tastes like what I was hoping for. It is very malty and the hops character is very low. The dark malt and the vanill acompliment each other very well. I can no longer find vanilla beans, so out of neccessity I will be forced to use vanilla extract. This would be a very good Robust Porter if I keep the vanilla out, add Black Patent Malt, and throw in some more flavor and aroma hops. WILL BREW AGAIN
next time

The vanilla flavor is beginning to disappear. Next time I will use REAL vanilla extract. I will definitely use plenty of it too.

If you're looking for Vanilla Beans for this recipe. Visit www.beanilla.com . They have some excellent vanilla beans at amazing prices. Vanilla Extract is not a good substitute to brew with for it actually already contains vodka in it!!! It will taint the true vanilla flavor your are looking for.
