[0] => Step 1: Brew Espresso
Brew 2 shots of espresso (60ml) using 30g of coffee. Let cool completely.
Step 2: Prepare Base
In a saucepan, heat cream, milk, and half the sugar over medium heat until steaming. Don't boil.
Step 3: Make Custard
Whisk egg yolks with remaining sugar until pale. Slowly add hot cream mixture while whisking constantly to temper eggs.
Step 4: Cook Custard
Return mixture to saucepan and cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until it coats the back of a spoon (170°F).
Step 5: Add Flavors
Remove from heat. Stir in chopped chocolate until melted, then add cooled espresso, orange zest, vanilla, and salt.
Step 6: Chill
Strain mixture through fine-mesh sieve. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
Step 7: Churn
Churn in ice cream maker according to manufacturer's instructions, usually 20-25 minutes.
Step 8: Freeze
Transfer to airtight container and freeze for at least 2 hours before serving.

[0] => Pro Tips:
Use fresh orange zest for the brightest flavor Don't skip straining - it removes any lumps and orange pulp Let ice cream soften for 5-10 minutes before scooping Store with plastic wrap pressed directly on surface to prevent ice crystals The espresso should be completely cool before adding to prevent melting the custard
