Tahitian Grade A vanilla bean pod typically has vanillin content of ~2.5%; moisture of ~30 -35%. As they age, they may develop the remarkable crystal-like features, the expression of high vanillin content. Great for all vanilla uses - cooking, baking, brewing, extract.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Grade A\/B is often gourmet grade with some imperfections - splits or scratches, flatter and\/or thinner (low seed density); and lower moisture content (~27-30%) than a typical grade A. It can be used for cooking, baking, brewing as well as extraction.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGrade B is considered as the extract grade. The Tahitian Grade B pods are moist and fresh. They have a relatively lower moisture content (25-28%) and are shorter than the gourmet grade A. Typical length is ~4\"-6\" and may or maynot have blemishes such as splits or scratches. They may also have lower seed density. Nevertheless, they still maintain the Tahitian floral aromatic characteristics.

Tightly close the jar and allow content to macerate for about 6-8 weeks or longer while shaking periodically (every 3-5 days).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe recommendation for pure vanilla-alcohol extract solution is ≥ 100 g of vanilla bean pod per liter using a 35% or greater alcohol.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDifferent types of alcoholic spirits are used but Vodka and Rum are the most commonly used.
