Notes
I use espresso or illy coffee, because it’s already finely ground. If the coffee you want to use is coarsely ground, you’ll need to mill it in a coffee grinder or blender to make it fine, otherwise it will make the ice cream gritty. Also, I found that soaking the grounds in some hot water for about five minutes cuts down on any grittiness.
Once the ice cream is frozen, cover it with wax paper so it doesn't develop ice crystals.
