AI am thinking of doing home made vanilla. The recipe looks simple 10 vanilla beans split lengthwise and 1 liter of vodka. Now I is it is it really better than vanilla paste? Thanks in advance.

Totally worth it, but you'll need more like 30 beans for 1L of vodka

AThanks for the advice this recipe is the one whit more positive reviews and wow 30 vanilla beans is alot I better half the recipe, thanks again

AAnd a cuestion do you hapen to now how long it last? I am a home baker and do not used in a daily basis thanks

I don't think it's better than a good paste by any stretch, but it is certainly better than store bought extracts.
I would look into making your own paste instead, I do that, doesn't cost much more if you buy your beans in bulk, and tastes amazing.

AIt's that possible? Wow I love the madagascar vanilla paste but I read somewhere that is just vanilla bean ground do now if is true ?

ANow I am going to the vanilla paste thank you!

AHow do you make vbp and how long do you need to let it sit before you can use it?

AI tink you used right away because the vanilla beans are really the leftovers of the vanilla extract, I am going to keep reading and see what I found.

AWww.vanillaproductsusa.com for beans and the best paste EVER.

AThe VBP sounds amazing, I have been using the NM, but these prices are much better. Thanks!

Ana-I've never made my own vanilla extract, I tend to use the paste for everything. I do make my own vanilla sugar, it's not necessary but I like using it for certain things.

AThank you AZ and smckkinney07 !! ;-D
