I'm attempting to launch a press pot program which has not worked so well in the past in my coffeehouse. Folks are not too familiar with the press pot around this area. I'm wondering how many on the board have seen or have had served press pot coffee in a coffeehouse? Was it worth what you were charged? How was the presentation? Would you order it again?...

Only 15,000 remain, trickling on to the local market at periodic auctions. ... The government-owned coffee stayed in storage after...

I went into a local Starbucks today ( July 7) and saw something new. They're giving information about the current roast they are serving including where and when it was roasted. I appreciate it that they have started, apparently, roast dating. Great move. They seem to be continuing the adaptation of some of the third wave techniques. But the listed...

After reading someone's post that they stop brewing when the brew turns blonde, I'm wondering if blonde brew might also mean that more bubbles are present in the brew 'froth.' If beans are light to begin with, and the brew is light to begin with, it will be blonde to begin with -- not so? Yes, I know - the brew will get 'lighter' blonde if you start...

Hey all... I've tried a search but never seem to find a direct answer to my questions... Shot timing... Upon timing my pulls I've noticed that in order to get the 25 (roughly) seconds for 2oz it sometimes "dribbles" out of the PF. This doesn't seem normal!? Acidity... My research tells me that the acidity of the espresso is controlled mainly by the...

One of solutions I kept coming across in response to methods on how to clean a stainless-steel carafe was to use a denture cleaning tablet. I was skeptical, but I came across it over and over again. Well, I just happened to have one, so I decided to give it a try this a.m. I used very hot water, popped a table in, and came back about six hours later. When...

Howdy Folks! Well the knee's feeling better and a lot of family & friends will be gathering to celebrate the 4th of July.

I have several beans to choose from; * Honduras Pacamara *...
