Rapid Infusion Vanilla Extract

5 years ago
Cole Whitney
Print Friendly, PDF & Email
Who has the time to wait patiently for months for vanilla beans to soak into an extract? A whipping siphon can yield a half pint of vanilla extract in just 2 weeks! Use code WHIPITGOOD to save 20% off any Modernist Pantry whipping siphon. Offer good while supplies last.

Ingredients

  • 4 Vanilla Beans
  • 240ml (8 oz) Vodka or Bourbon

Equipment

  • 500ml Whipping Siphon
  • N2O Cream Chargers

Timing

Active Time: 5 Minutes

Total Time: 2 Weeks

Yield

8oz

  • Prepare Beans

    Split the vanilla beans but do not scrape the seeds. Pressurizing will release them.

    You can cut the beans in half to ensure they are fully submerged. But if you want the beans to remain at their full length for presentation purposes simply rest the whipping siphon on its side for the two weeks.

  • Fill Whipping Siphon and Charge

    In a 16 oz whipping siphon place the vanilla beans and vodka (or bourbon).

    Seal the whipping siphon and charge with one N2O cartridge. Release about 2 seconds worth of pressure to make sure any oxygen has been released.

    Charge with a second N2O charge. Allow the mixture to rest for 2 weeks.

  • Remove Vanilla Extract

    Cover the spout and release the pressure from the whipping siphon.

    Pour the mixture into a bottle for storage. Do not cap the bottle for 2 hours to let the N2O dissipate.

    Use immediately or stored indefinitely.
