When did you add the coffee and did you use an espresso machine to make the 2 cups?

I used an expresso machine to brew the coffee, however I did it at a slightly lower temperature than is typical for expresso. I added the Coffee at the end of the boil. The coffee flavor was nice, not too powerful and not bittering at all.
Astoundingly well done

I tried this a few months ago, dumped in 3lbs of blackberries for the secondary fermentation, racked it again two weeks later then added 1-1/2 cups coffee beans for a week. Best beer I've ever made. Thanks
