Notes

Add fresh ground coffee and vanilla beans sliced lengthwise to secondary for 24-72 hours, depending on preference.

I've found adding coffee grounds to secondary makes for a less bitter brew than boiling. the difference between vanilla bean tincture vs added to secondary seems to be unnoticable.

Let this beer condition for at least 2-3 months in bottle

For the peanut butter victory at sea, add 2 6.5oz jars PB2 peanut butter powder to secondary and bump ibu to 65
