Jonathan,

Your code was almost right, but you made two Scheme errors.  Here's
working code, with the errors identified.

\relative c'' {
   \new Staff {
%    #(add-grace-property 'Voice 'Stem 'direction #'down)
%    Once the first # introduces a Scheme function, you don't
%     want the scheme constants in that function to be 
%     introduced with a #.
%     Also, the constants for direction are UP and DOWN,
%      not 'up and 'down.
    #(add-grace-property 'Voice 'Stem 'direction DOWN)
     \new Voice {
        \acciaccatura {
        f16
        }
      g4
     }
   }
}


HTH,

Carl
