The consensus on using vanilla beans seems to be to soak them in some spirits for at least a few hours to sanitize.
...is this really necessary? Who out there drops them straight in? I figure since fermentation will have been done (i'm making a stout) the alcohol from the beer would be enough to take care of nasties.
