Notes

On the brew date, I sanitized an 8 oz mason jar and filled with freshly brewed (strong) coffee and refrigerated it. Added coffee to keg prior to adding beer.

I used the recipe from the Heretic Shallow Grave Porter, via Morebeer. I then made the coffee addition mentioned above to increase the coffee flavor. I have brewed this once before and it came out awesome. Heretic did a great job with the recipe. The coffee addition made it even better. This is a regular recipe for me! Strongly recommended.
