Vanilla beans unlike the fully processed extract are super pricey, given the fact that they are rare, it wouldn’t be a very good idea to toss them in alcohol mixture to get the extracts on an experimental basis. Dr Vanilla buy the best quality pods at reasonable costs directly from the farmers, hence avoiding the middlemen cost, so finding the resources to provide the pods at low costs can also be challenging for normal households.
Lack of proper technology is another factor that affects the preparation. Dr Vanilla has a fully dedicated team from handpicking of premium pods to handle the complex process of vanilla extraction, at each step our team provides their full attention to each and every detail.
You may think it is for commercial use so we definitely need the technology and expertise, but the method that produces extract from a hundred pod will be the same for even if it's one pod so you will surely need the expertise to produce extract in small scale too.
Moreover, vanilla contains around 400 flavour compounds out of which some are water soluble and others are ethanol soluble, while the extraction of other flavour will not be possible at room temperature and normal pressure.
Dr Vanilla uses cold infusion technology that preserves the flavour and aroma of extracts.
