No, no, no!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Don't do it! The beans no matter how finely you grind them will leave a gritty mouth! If you want to go with the ground up part I would suggest you use the candy espresso beans. They will melt in your mouth eventually. Or you could consider some instant espresso mixed in with some cocoa.
