I made a Muntons stoup kit and added vanilla and coffee.
What I did was make a pot of very strong coffee, strained it and added the coffee as part of the water allowance, I steeped the vanilla in with the coffee. I'm convinced that it at be as well to dangle the coffee grounds in a muslin bag in the first ferment, a few posts say that the cold brew method gives a smoother result.
Initially, I couldn't taste much of the coffee but after finding a few bottles that got away in the back of the cupboard the coffee flavour is more pronounced. The vanilla flavour wasn't anything to write your aunt about, it stared off week and disappeared. I didn't use anywhere close to enough vanilla pods.
Hope this helps.
