Notes

4 oz (1 cup) of trainwreck coffee roughly ground (don't grind as long as your normal coffee) to 2 cups of water overnight in the refrigerator. Strain the grounds through a coffee filter and add the liquid to your secondary fermenter.

Variations include increasing the amount of coffee grounds and adding vanilla bean or cocoa nibs.
