    Slight vocabulary confusion:
    In South Africa, is vanilla essence the standard vanilla flavouring suspended in alcohol, or is it an extra-reduced double or triple strength flavour? It looks like the term is used differently in different areas.

    Sorry I forgot America was about a century behind the rest of the world. Teaspoon is 5 ml and 250 gran a half a pound. I know your gallon is smaller than an Imperial one do not know if a US pound is the same as an Imperial pound
