NB Brunch Stout modification

I recently brewed my first batch, a Brunch Stout from NB. http://www.northernbrewer.com/shop/brunch-stout-extract-kit-w-specialty-grains.html


It came out great and I learned quite a bit. I'm very pleased with the results and it's a very drinkable beer.

It is quite bitter (coffee) however. Next time I brew this, I'd like to cut the bitterness or add a little sweetness to offset the bitter end a little.

I'm looking for ideas for modification to this recipe that would have this result. How would you go about modifying this recipe to achieve this result?

Hi - Was also thinking about making this stout and was worried about the bitterness being overwhelming. Did you ever get any suggestions? Thanks!

Lactose? Make a milk stout out of the kit?
