I recently brewed a porter with fresh mint leaves and used 2.25 oz. Been in bottles for almost 8 weeks and its got a nice mint flavor to it. Not overpowering and not too subtle. Yours may come out mintier (if that's a word) because I also had 2 oz of vanilla extract in it.
I just steeped it whole (no grind, tear, or any other alterations) at flame out for 15 minutes. Just opened the packages, rinsed them, and put them in.
