Any of you use fresh vanilla beans to flavor your sprits. I have had great results. And I also have a stupidly cheap supply. I almost fell over when I say them for $3 each at Safeway. Faark that!!!

Wish i had a stupidly cheap supply. I want to do a choc vannilla porter soon and definately don't want to pay bean prices.

We may do a deal :ugeek:

I will try to figure some thing out and advertiZe them. Not sure if i should put this in a diffrent thread. Not doing it fpr profit. Postage is about the same cost as the beans. I can get them for you no worries it's getting down to the post office that's the problem.
How many people are interested???

I'd also love a few, but I'd be struggling to use 1/2 a pack?

for those in the west you can get decent cheap beans from http://spicewest.com.au/

(i don't work for them - and i've only bought a couple times from them - i think it used to be a bit cheaper from their ebay store but maybe not anymore)
but so far so good - 10 beans for about $10 delivered
