I suspect that the split beans are a little cheaper just because they are split. Apparently, the splitting sometimes happens as the beans mature; it's not a quality issue. I would also suspect that, if you're using the beans to make vanilla extract, that you might want to buy the unsplit beans for this. The reason I say this is that you'll be able to use the caviar of the beans for other things (baking, making ice cream, etc.) if the beans are unsplit and the contents don't end up in the bottom of your jar where you are making vanilla. Periodically, you need to change some of the beans out to keep up the strength of the extract brew. I would like to pass along how happy I am with Vanilla Products USA. I decided to start making my own extract and tried several other sellers and their products. To compare, I had one jar of starter extract that had been sitting for 2 months from one store that wasn't even as strong as the bottle with the Vanilla Products beans that had only been sitting for 3 weeks. By far, Vanilla Products USA offers the best beans at a good price. They are the only store I plan on buying from in the future. And, as just a point of information, Grade B beans are the best for making extract. Grade A (which I haven't bought yet) are for baking, etc. Hope this helps. PS: You want the beans you use to make extract to be dry rather than moist. You get a better extract that way.

I got this answer directly from the Nielsen Massey website: Q: Is there Bourbon Whiskey in your Madagascar Bourbon Pure Vanilla Extract? A: No, the term Bourbon is a geographic reference to the Bourbon Islands-Madagascar, Comoro, Runion, Seychelles and Mauritius-which are off the east coast of Africa. While there is alcohol in our extracts, the majority of this will either be cooked off during preparation or spread throughout the entirety of your dish. For instance, you may add one teaspoon of vanilla extract, which is only one-third alcohol, to an entire batch of cookies.

What I read was A is for cooking but B is great for making vanilla extract...you can use A beans but won't make it any better...A is plumper but B are good too

The one that's pictured appears to be the vintage DHI. The vintage should have a silver collar (and my impression was a silver stem as well), however, it appears that some of the vintage formulations have the black stem too. A vintage bottle is likely going to be very expensive and certain, highly desirable batch numbers can exceed an ask price of over $200 on the current market. Having said that, I've never had the pleasure of smelling the vintage version. I own the reformulation myself, which is a black collar and black stem. It's a very nice, powdery vanilla once you get past the heavy iris (lipstick smelling) opening. The one that's pictured appears to be the vintage DHI.

Hello Lauren B. Thanks for your interest. I am Blue Ridge Mountain Spirits. Do not get me confused please with the others. My barrels are top quality as I hope you read. There is a additional cost for engraving. You would have to contact me directly because I can't offer it on the Amazon ad. Plus, I want to be sure that I can get your engraving on and make it look great. If it will not look good, I will not take the order. Engraving is anywhere from $19.99 to $24.99. I can be contacted here in Georgia at 404.8227512. Thanks, Papa Rudy

I ordered Grade B, however they also have Grade A. I find grade B to be darker and richer in taste.

No difference other than size. Price depends on the seller. Get the largest bottle because this fragrence is AMAZING!!!! Got it for my daughter but had to have some for myself after smelling it.

I've done tests with Holle level 1 weighing what comes out of the brezza at the 2 ounce setting with a hand made bottle with two scoops filled to an identical water level in both bottles. I've determined that 8 is a bout 1 gram light on two ounces of formula, which is not insignificant. I switched it to setting 7 and have run the tests several more times and they have come out almost identical every time with a small margin of error. I would strongly recommend using level 7 for Holle level 1.

I believe they are the exact same just different sellers. That seems to happen often with many products on amazon. Go with the best price! :) P.S. If you are looking for candida removal with this I would recommend to click on the 2 bottle deal and just have them. Candida takes a while to remove so be patient.... and also go to a health store/vitamin shop and get a really good probiotic. 10+ different strains with around 20 billion parts. ;)

According to the bottle it uses Vanilla planifolia, which is the species known as Madagascar or Bourbon vanilla and is the species most commonly used in cooking. Strictly speaking, Madagascar/Bourbon vanilla would be Vanilla planifolia that was actually grown in that region of the world. Mexican vanilla, for example, is Vanilla planifolia grown in Mexico. Tahitian vanilla, in contrast, is from a different orchid.

They are the same thing, just different packaging, and this one is the newer (the one in the link is the old version). Sometimes people see the word "super", it is actually just the translate from the japanese katakana on the bottle label, I got confused a little bit at first, but I tried to read the label (I know a bit Japanese) and figured it out. Have a look at this website http://www.hadalabo.com.my/product_content.html?catid=1&id=0 &lt;- Hada Labo offial website in Malaysia and they updated the new packaging (not like the website for US which still uses the old ones). Hope this help :)

For most products, you would naturally prefer Grade A over Grade B - like meat or eggs, for instance. That's not the case with vanilla beans. You should buy the proper grade for your use. If you are going to cook with the beans, then opt for Grade A. They have a moisture content around 30% and have plenty of caviar to scrape out. If you are going to make vanilla extract, use Grade B vanilla beans. They are cured differently and have a moisture content of around 20%. One misconception is when people use Grade A vanilla beans and then switch to Grade B they feel that the beans are dried out. There is nothing wrong with them - they are drier by design. Think grapes vs raisins. You can make vanilla extract with Grade A beans, but that does not mean that you will be making a better extract. Finally, there are beans known as splits. Usually they split on the vine (sometimes during the curing process). They are sought after by many commercial producers of vanilla extract because they have a higher vanillin content than whole extract grade vanilla beans. They are not used beans.

Grade A is thinner and, to me, has less maple taste. Grade B is more of an amber, read darker, color and has a more robust maple flavor. Grade B is also somewhat more viscous. Either one can be used in a recipe. The jug actually says 'Grade B'.

There is no difference other than quantity. Those are like item numbers...1865 is a 90 tablets, 1885 is a 330 tablets and 1900 is 800 tablets. I've been using Standard Process products for almost 5 years. They are outstanding quality.

This is considered a "column" or "fractioning" still. Other than that, I really don't know enough about these things to tell you what the difference is. I had to email clawhammer just to be able to tell you this much.
