LOVE HOME MADE COFFEE, BUT (on Saving money in a ti...)
intrepid510 | Tue, 12/06/2011Love home made coffee, but will continue to go out a support the good local cafe's I think we as consumers just need to be sure to reward the ones that get it right and avoid the char!
GLAD TO KNOW THAT YOUR (on Our journey in Guate...)
intrepid510 | Tue, 12/06/2011Glad to know that your roasting company is giving back a little bit as well as making great coffee!
THANKS FOR THE STUNNING (on The Coffee of Kenya)
intrepid510 | Tue, 12/06/2011Thanks for the stunning picture and a little background on Kenyan coffee, it so simple to just think of these places as a name on a bag.
THANK YOU FOR THE POST, I (on Storing Coffee for F...)
intrepid510 | Tue, 12/06/2011Thank you for the post, I have to get better at this!
WILL HAVE TO TRY THIS, THE (on Irish Coffee for Dre...)
intrepid510 | Tue, 12/06/2011Will have to try this, the brown sugar sounds like the missing ingredient to the ones I made before!
SINCE WATER IS THE MAJORITY (on All water is not the...)
intrepid510 | Tue, 12/06/2011Since water is the majority of coffee we drink it only makes sense.
I THINK THE SCIENCE ALLOWS (on The Art and Science ...)
intrepid510 | Tue, 12/06/2011I think the science allows one to be able to get a consistent result all the time, but the art allows you to get the most from the bean. i.e. if you know a little more or less roast will likely do this to a coffee you can make a superior roast to someone that just knows the science.
ART AND SCIENCE (on The Art and Science ...)
Wakeknot | Sun, 11/06/2011I think this aspect you touch on is my favorite part of pulling espresso, too.
NOT TOO PURE EITHER (on All water is not the...)
Wakeknot | Sun, 11/06/2011distilled is not recommended either.
YUM (on Irish Coffee for Dre...)
Wakeknot | Sat, 11/05/2011with the weather turning cold this sounds like it would hit the spot today!
GOOD TIPS (on Storing Coffee for F...)
Wakeknot | Fri, 11/04/2011I also think the "nearly a month" is an underestimate for the freezer is frozen well.
DISTINCTIVE (on The Coffee of Kenya)
Wakeknot | Fri, 11/04/2011Kenyans are easy to pick out from other coffees even for beginners!
GREAT STORY (on Our journey in Guate...)
Wakeknot | Wed, 11/02/2011It is especially heart warming to hear about the children and hope that coffee can help make their world better.
HERE, HERE (on Saving money in a ti...)
Wakeknot | Wed, 11/02/2011#1 is my choice and thanks to Roaste it has never been better.
GOOD TIPS (on Saving money in a ti...)
EricBNC | Thu, 09/08/2011Good tips and still very pertinent since the price is still high.
SO BEAUTIFUL! (on Our journey in Guate...)
EricBNC | Thu, 09/08/2011This country has been showcased before but I never tire of it's natural beauty - love the waterfall shot!
THE COLD FACTS (on Storing Coffee for F...)
EricBNC | Thu, 09/08/2011I freeze beans when I know I will not get to them in a week depending on my schedule - better than letting them stale.
DANGEROUS (on Irish Coffee for Dre...)
EricBNC | Thu, 09/08/2011With the price of coffee going up it might be cheaper to brew a little less and add a little more whiskey to top off the cup. Just kidding - but it does look tasty in the pic.
ARTISAN HOBBY (on The Art and Science ...)
EricBNC | Thu, 09/08/2011I like playing around with a popper or my Behmor but for espresso blends I prefer what I can buy from the pro's.
IT MATTERS (on All water is not the...)
EricBNC | Thu, 09/08/2011I went on my city/county web page and reviewed the water quality audit for the past couple years and we are not considered to have hard water - I filter water coming out of my coffee water spigot through an under sink ice maker filter too - bought the biggest one I could find ($14) that has the Teflon pipe press fit couplings. Cheaper than the proprietary systems and good enough for ice - and coffee too in my opinion.
