Each has its own unique flavour profile:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Vanilla Planifolia\u2014often labelled as \"Bourbon\" or \"Java\" because of the island of origin<\/li><li>Vanilla Tahitensis\u2014commonly sold under the name Tahitian vanilla beans<\/li><li>Vanilla Pompona\u2014Peruvian vanilla beans are this variety<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Most orchid plants that produce vanilla beans came from Mexico. These were transplanted into different parts of the world. Like with grapes for wine and the influence of terroir on the flavour profile, the same goes for vanilla beans. The place where the beans are grown will influence the flavour of the vanilla produced. The orchid plants grow on trees and so the flavour profile can be correlated to the types of trees. A vanilla planfolia bean grown in Madagascar and one from Indonesia will produce different tasting vanilla extracts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"single-fold-versus-double-fold\"   class=\"wp-block-heading\">Single fold versus double fold<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Governing bodies that regulate food have rules for what is vanilla extract and what can be labelled as such:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>The alcohol used has to be at least 35 % alcohol. You need to use 80 proof alcohol to make vanilla extract.<\/li><li>The amount of vanilla bean per gallon or litre of alcohol is divided into two categories:<ol><li>vanilla beans containing more than 25 percent moisture<\/li><li>vanilla beans containing less than 25 percent moisture<\/li><\/ol><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the Federal Drug Administration (FDA), to be considered single fold vanilla extract, it has to be made with:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>13.35 ounces of vanilla beans per gallon of alcohol if you use beans containing more than 25 percent moisture<\/li><li>15 ounces of vanilla beans per gallon if you use beans containing 33.25 percent moisture<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Canadian regulations state that to be labelled as vanilla extract or essence, it must contain:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"has-pale-pink-background-color has-background wp-block-list\"><li>not less than 10 g of vanilla beans, where the beans contain 25 per cent or less moisture<\/li><li>not less than 7.5 g of vanilla beans on the moisture-free basis, where the beans contain more than 25 per cent moisture<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-luminous-vivid-amber-background-color has-background\">Rule of thumb:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"has-luminous-vivid-amber-background-color has-background wp-block-list\"><li>For single fold vanilla, use 25 grams (1 ounce) of beans per 250 mL of 35\u201340 % alcohol (80 proof).<\/li><li>For double fold vanilla, use 50 grams (2 ounces) of vanilla beans per 250 mL of alcohol.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Many websites will tell you how many beans to use per cup of alcohol. This is inaccurate and can lead to a very weak vanilla extract. It may taste just like booze with no depth of flavour. Vanilla beans vary in size greatly. Some are longer and some are shorter. Some are more plump and some are less plump. It depends on the country of origin, the variety, the weather during the growing season, etc. Using a number of beans to create a vanilla extract recipe is pointless. Weigh your beans!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can use a clear alcohol that imparts little flavour, like vodka. Or you can use something with more character. Try bourbon, rum, or whiskey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"ways-to-check-if-your-vanilla-extract-is-ready-to-use\"   class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ways to check if your vanilla extract is ready to use<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The minute you put vanilla beans in alcohol, the extract will start to smell like vanilla, even if it's still not fully extracted. So your nose can't be your guide here. Here are three ways to test your homemade extract:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Make sweetened whip cream\u2014<mark>add it to whipping cream with a little sugar and then to judge how it tastes.<\/mark> If all you taste is alcohol and sweet cream, it's likely you need to let the extract sit for longer.<\/li><li>Add it to milk\u2014combine 2-3 drops of your extract with 30 mL (2 tablespoons) of milk in a glass. Stir and let sit for a couple of minutes, then take a sip<\/li><li>Use a sugar cube\u2014place 2 or 3 drops of your homemade extract on a sugar cube, then suck on the sugar cube. If it just tastes like boozy sugar, you probably need to extract the beans for longer.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"substitutions\"   class=\"wp-block-heading\">Substitutions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>With only two ingredients, you are limited in terms of substitutions. Obviously, there's no way to replace the vanilla beans. We need bean pods to make extract! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Still, you can explore making 40 % (80 proof) alcohol from everclear and water. Some vanilla bean makers prefer to use dilute everclear. The flavour is cleaner and won't interfere with the flavour of the vanilla in any way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Do not use pure everclear to make vanilla extract without diluting it. It's too strong a solvent. You will end up breaking down the beans and the extract won't be as clear or as nice. It's just too strong. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to dilute everclear to make extract<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Everclear is 95 % alcohol. You need to dilute it with water to make 40 % alcohol (80 proof) to make vanilla extract. Assuming you want to make a total of 500 mL of 40 % alcohol from 95 % alcohol, you need to do a cross-multiplication:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table class=\"has-subtle-pale-pink-background-color has-fixed-layout has-background\"><thead><tr><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">% alcohol<\/th><th>volume (in millilitres)<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">95<\/td><td>?<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">40<\/td><td>500<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><figcaption>Calculating dilution of everclear to make 80 proof (40 % alcohol)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Cross multiplication: 500 mL of 40 % alcohol x 95 % alcohol \/ 40 % alcohol  = 211 mL of 95 % alcohol diluted to 500 mL total using water<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So perform this dilution to turn 95 % everclear into 40 % alcohol: place 211 mL of 95 % everclear into a 500 mL liquid measuring cup and fill up to the 500 mL (2 cup) marker with water. Stir well. The resulting liquid will be 40 % alcohol (80 proof).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"variations\"   class=\"wp-block-heading\">Variations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Don't feel limited by this two-ingredient recipe. There are actually many ways to change up this recipe:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Try different varieties of vanilla bean from different countries. Remember that Tahitensis beans have a different flavour profile than Planifolia and Pompona beans. Make separate extracts from the different types of beans to compare and see which you prefer!<\/li><li>Test out different alcohols to find your favourite. Some vanilla extract makers choose to extract with Smirnoff vodka, others will even use different types of gin as their booze of choice to make vanilla. You can make vanilla extract using any alcohol, as long as it has 80 % alcohol content. I like to use Woodford Reserve, a bourbon with a flavour profile that complements the type of beans I use.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"make-a-mother-jar\"   class=\"wp-block-heading\">Make a mother jar<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The idea of a mother jar is that you constantly have a big jar of alcohol that you keep topping up with more beans and more booze. Then you decant a portion into a smaller bottle that you use in your baking, while you continue to extract more beans in the mother jar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can think of the mother jar of vanilla extract as a jar of starter that you store in the fridge. You refresh it every so often to keep it going, and you take a portion whenever you need it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course, sourdough starter needs to be used and refreshed a little more often. The idea is the same. Just like starter, when you top your mother jar with more alcohol, you have to restart the extraction clock.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some vanilla makers will make a mother jar with the leftover vanilla beans that were removed after making a first batch of extract. Instead of throwing out those soaked, used beans, they place them in the mother jar to extract a second time. In this case, it's less about making extract with a certain concentration of beans, but rather more about not wasting precious beans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"how-to-reuse-extracted-beans\"   class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to reuse extracted beans<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>After making a first batch of extract from your vanilla beans, you can remove them from the jar and transfer them to a new jar to make another batch. For your second batch, you may split the beans lengthwise to expore more of the flesh of the bean to the alcohol to ensure you draw out as much flavour from the spent beans. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can use spent beans to make a mother jar, adding any and all used vanilla beans to the jar whenever you have some. Or you can use the used vanilla bean to make <a href=\"https:\/\/bakeschool.com\/vanilla-sugar\/\">vanilla sugar<\/a> or even vanilla bean paste! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"storage\"   class=\"wp-block-heading\">Storage<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Store homemade vanilla extract in a cool, dry place, away from the light. I store it in a closed pantry. While your beans are extracting, I find it is easier to do this in a Mason jar because vanilla beans are long, even when cut in half. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I prefer to make extract in a glass jar because plastic tends to absorb odours and flavour.<\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"recipe\"><\/div><h2 id=\"%f0%9f%93%96-recipe\"   class=\"feast-recipe-heading\">\ud83d\udcd6 Recipe<\/h2><div id=\"wprm-recipe-container-14773\" class=\"wprm-recipe-container\" data-recipe-id=\"14773\" data-servings=\"50\"><div class=\"wprm-recipe wprm-recipe-template-tbs-chic-template\"><div class=\"wprm-container-float-right\">\n    <div class=\"wprm-recipe-image wprm-block-image-rounded\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"border-width: 0px;border-style: solid;border-color: #666666;border-radius: 3px;\" width=\"250\" height=\"250\" src=\"https:\/\/bakeschool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/The-different-types-of-vanilla-you-can-bake-with-360x360.jpg\" class=\"attachment-250x250 size-250x250\" alt=\"The different types of vanilla you can bake with featuring vanilla beans, extract, sugar, and paste\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bakeschool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/The-different-types-of-vanilla-you-can-bake-with-360x360.jpg 360w, https:\/\/bakeschool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/The-different-types-of-vanilla-you-can-bake-with-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/bakeschool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/The-different-types-of-vanilla-you-can-bake-with-500x500.jpg 500w, https:\/\/bakeschool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/The-different-types-of-vanilla-you-can-bake-with-720x720.jpg 720w, https:\/\/bakeschool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/The-different-types-of-vanilla-you-can-bake-with-180x180.jpg 180w, https:\/\/bakeschool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/The-different-types-of-vanilla-you-can-bake-with-640x640.jpg 640w, https:\/\/bakeschool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/The-different-types-of-vanilla-you-can-bake-with-96x96.jpg 96w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 250px) 100vw, 250px\" \/><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2 id=\"homemade-vanilla-extract-from-vanilla-beans\"   class=\"wprm-recipe-name wprm-block-text-bold\">Homemade Vanilla Extract from Vanilla Beans<\/h2>\n<div class=\"wprm-spacer\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"wprm-recipe-block-container wprm-recipe-block-container-separate wprm-block-text-light wprm-recipe-author-container\" style=\"\"><span class=\"sr-only screen-reader-text wprm-screen-reader-text\">Author<\/span><span class=\"wprm-recipe-details-label wprm-block-text-bold wprm-recipe-author-label\" aria-hidden=\"true\">Author : <\/span><span class=\"wprm-recipe-details wprm-recipe-author wprm-block-text-light\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bakeschool.com\/meet-janice\/\" target=\"_self\">Janice Lawandi<\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"wprm-spacer\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"wprm-recipe-summary wprm-block-text-normal\"><span style=\"display: block;\">Make homemade vanilla extract from vanilla beans.
