I just bottled my "Espresso Stout" and I find the amount of coffee flavour is perfect.
I finely ground 30g of espresso roast beans and made 2 double shots of espresso with a hand pull espresso press. I added the espresso directly to the primary just before pitching the yeast. The head retention may have been affected. I may try adding the espresso to the secondary next time as the vigor of the primary fermentation may have stripped some of the coffee flavour.
