White Labs WLP005 British Ale
White Labs WLP005 British Ale
This yeast is a little more attenuative than WLP002. Like most English strains, this yeast produces malty beers. Excellent for all English style ales including bitter, pale ale, porter, and brown ale.
Notes
Originally only primed the bottles with 3.3 oz of corn sugar. Took almost 6 weeks to carbonate, but it was worth the wait! Roasty, bodied, slightly sweet with balanced bitterness and only a hint of vanilla.

Vanilla Extract

I am thinking of brewing a Vanilla Porter and was curious as to how did the extract work out? Was it enough? Also, I have read that some of the vanilla extracts have vodka in them. Does the pure vanilla have any other ingredients?
