When to Use

Extract grade vanilla beans are made for extracting its flavor by brewing into beer, ale, and making vanilla extract using simple Vodka, Rum, Bourbon, food grade ethyl alcohol, or food grade glycerin.

Grade B vanilla beans, also referred to as extract grade vanilla beans, are dryer than the soft and supple TK grade and grade A vanilla beans. Extract grade beans are not as pretty as regular vanilla beans. They are various sizes and have superficial color blemishes.

The aroma is locked deep in the flesh of the extract-grade vanilla bean. The dryness concentrates the flavor and gives you more vanilla beans per pound.

Packaged in Ambient-Air — Never Vacuum Packed

We package our vanilla in ambient air packaging.

In a technical article by Daphna Havkin-Frenkel, Ph.D.; MBA she explains the negative effects of vacuum packaging vanilla and why we should not utilize that method.

Vacuum packaging vanilla beans can create an environment for anaerobic bacteria to grow. The benefit of keeping vanilla beans in ambient air packaging is that vanilla will continue to cure and develop flavor. We know of a vanilla bean seller in California with 10-year-old vanilla beans that they continue to cure like a fine aged wine.
