Question 1

Is the moisture content listed on the package, for example 30% - 33%?

Accepted Answer

Grade B is fine for making vanilla, but I had some kind of memory lapse when ordering the Grade A.   That said, they were the fattest, moistest of any I've ever used.  I no longer have the packaging to tell you the actual content, but am rarely concerned about moisture, as all it takes to soften dry beans is to soak them in rum, or whatever alcohol you are using, for  a half hour, or so.  Also, I never cut them in half and "strip" them, instead, using scissors, cut each bean into tiny, tiny pieces, toss the pieces into the alcohol and vigorously shake the bottle daily.  Makes for much less mess and waste of the beans.  With each new batch, use a new bottle of alcohol and fresh beans, but keep the old bean pods in the bottom of the bottle.   A year or 3 down the road, several batches later, dump all those used pods and beans into a 5# bag of sugar and enjoy the most delicious vanilla sugar to add to your baked goods.  Hope this helps.

Question 2

What is the difference between the grade a and grade b beans? i slice them open to scrape the inside into sugar. will i notice a difference? ty

Accepted Answer

Grade B beans are drier than grade A. The amount of flavor compounds in grade A vs grade B beans is roughly the same.

The result is that grade A is better for using directly in baked goods since the flavor can be distributed more evenly and quickly throughout the dish before the extra moisture is cooked off. Grade B beans, on the other hand, are better for making extracts or vanilla sugar since they don't transfer as much water to the alcohol / sugar, and the time that the beans are in contact with the surrounding medium is much longer.

For vanilla sugar, grade B is better than grade A. There's less clumping, and you can use two grade B beans for what you would pay for one grade A bean.

Question 3

Which vanilla beans take ebt

Accepted Answer

It’s not the vanilla beans who collect the money, the company does.

Question 4

Have these vanilla beans been soaked or by any way had the flavor extracted from them?

Accepted Answer

These beans have not been altered in any way. They are very moist and plumb. They are literally oozing vanilla goodness! I time all of my shipments to come in on a regular schedule to ensure the freshest beans possible.
