I am planning on doing this kit in the near future. This will be my first attempt with coffee. The instructions call for the coffee addition (4 oz for a 5 gallon batch) at flameout and then steep for 20 minutes before cooling. I've read a lot about coffee addition that says this can lead to unwanted coffee/bitter flavors. Many seem to add either cold brewed or grounds to secondary. So, being a relative beginner here, would you follow the instructions or go with what others are doing for coffee addition? Also, anyone ever brew this kit? If so, I'd appreciate any info you pass on about it. Thanks.
