Mash at 150 °F (66 °C) for 45 minutes. Collect 6.5 gallons (24.6 L) of wort in your kettle. Boil 60 minutes, adding corn sugar at beginning of boil. Add hops according to the schedule, waiting on the hop stand additions. After the boil is finished, remove from heat and cool the wort down to 180 °F (82 °C). Add the hop stand additions along with the ground coffee. Stir the wort into a whirlpool and let settle for 15 minutes. Chill the wort down 68 °F (21 °C), aerate, and pitch the yeast. Ferment at

70 °F (21 °C) for two weeks. Add the dry hops and let sit 3–4 days. If you want more coffee flavor, add some cold-brewed coffee to taste at this time. Bottle or keg as normal.
