I just threw some coffee beans into my carboy which is currently housing my Old Raspy clone.
I had initially intended to put them in a hop sock, but after fumbling around for a few minutes trying to fit it through the hole in my glass carboy, I decided to just funnel the beans in.
I was a little concerned about the beans splashing, as I didn't want to splash my beer and make a bunch of oxygen bubbles. But I think it went pretty well.
Used 1/2 lb. of Dark French Roast beans. Soaked them in a bit of vodka for good measure, although I've heard contamination is pretty unlikely once beer is fully fermented.
Any thoughts/critiques/suggestions regarding my process that I should try in the future? This is my second batch, and I'm pretty stoked to see how it turns out.
