Why not jazz up your morning ritual with cup of rich gourmet coffee.The dictionary defines gourmet food like this, “Gourmet food is that which is of the highest quality, perfectly prepared and artfully presented.” If you want the highest quality food you go to a top notch restaurant but if you want the highest quality coffee, you can do that at home yourself.

| Article Title :: A Good Excuse To Drink More Coffee |
| |
| When I was in high school our principal, Mr. Watkins was an avid coffee drinker. And when I say "avid", I mean nobody stood in between Mr. Watkins and his pot of coffee. Mr. Watkins day wouldn’t start unless he had at least a pot and a half of coffee in his belly. He was a bit high-strung, which the teachers that worked directly ender him blamed his constant "one cup right after the other" coffee drinking mentality. One day the teachers decided to secretly change his regular coffee to decaf in an effort to calm him down. It didn’t work. They didn’t take into consideration that he had just quit smoking weeks earlier. It wasn’t the coffee that made him that way, it was his nervous w (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Dark Roast Vs. Light Roast |
| |
| Consider the last time you bought a bag of coffee. Perhaps it’s wrong of me to assume, but would I be correct in guessing the coffee you purchased was a dark roast?Most of the coffee available to the home consumer today is a dark roast. And by watching coffee commercials and reading the ads, without hesitation, one would easily believe the dark roast is, by far, a superior coffee. But when it comes to the roast of your coffee, while a great deal of it simply has to do with personal taste, don’t believe mass marketing that says the dark roast is the ultimate expression of quality coffee. It’s not. In fact, it’s often quite the opposite.There are reasons the dark (read full article) |

| Article Title :: How To Master Your French Press - Plunger Pot Coffee Maker |
| |
| The French press produces a very rich, robust coffee. It is the next best brew to an Espresso. Using medium to coarse coffee grounds which when directly infused using slightly cooled boiling water, will create a great blend of aroma and flavor. The French press method is pre-warming the glass beaker with hot water, adding your preferred amount of coffee in the beaker, then adding some slightly cooled boiling water. The plunger cover is then replaced on the beaker. You should then allow the coffee to steep for about four to six minutes. Then you gently press the plunger lid down allowing it to pass through the suspended coffee. This will separate your finished coffee away from the grounds (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Coffee: From Harvest to Cup |
| |
| Coffee is a plant. However, before it can be drunk it must pass through a number of stages and travel thousands of miles.Coffee beans come from the red cherries of the coffea bush. Each cherry usually contains two seeds, or coffee beans. The exception to this is the Peaberry, where only one bean is produced. The flavour a bean produces is affected by where the coffea bush is grown. Soil, climate and altitude all alter the way coffee tastes; this is why, for example, coffee from Columbia will differ in taste from region to region and from year to year.Most coffee comes from two species of the coffea bush: Coffea arabica, simply known as ‘arabica’; and Coffea caneph (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Certified Organic vs Fair Trade Certified |
| |
| The title of this article is disturbing. The concepts of Organic and Fair Trade are very important to building (rebuilding) a sustainable society. The good news is that the certifications are not mutually exclusive and actually complement each other nicely.First, a word about certification. In our current market, third party certification is essential to both organic and fair trade. As the market for both fair trade and organic grows many businesses would rather change the definition than to change their practices. We are seeing this now in the fair trade coffee market place. As time goes on a search for fair trade coffee is more and more likely to turn up non-certified “fair tra (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Why Pay Top Dollar for a Single Cup Coffee Brewer? |
| |
| It’s the big thing in coffee right now - single cup coffee brewers.Instead of pouring your ground coffee in a filter, like you do with a regular drip brewer, these new machines are built to accept special pods or K-cups, which are pre-filled. (It’s the same principle as those filter bags of coffee you find in hotel rooms, but fancier.)So you select from the available blends of coffee, buy a box of pods or K-cups and then simply insert one into the machine whenever you want some coffee.What’s the big deal with a single cup coffee brewer?The manufacturers are selling them with the promise that you can now brew a great cup of coffee without the hassle (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Your Kingdom for a Coffee Machine? |
| |
| When asked to list essential equipment in an office people tend to think of computers, desks, chairs, photocopiers, printers, stationary and the such. While this is all very important, neglecting to include a coffee machine somewhere in that list would be close to incompetent. Why? Simply because a coffee machine is absolutely invaluable to both employer and employee. A coffee machine means more than just the obvious benefit of coffee 'on tap'. In the workplace it can subtly act to substantially improve the employer-employee relationship.Unfortunately, many businesses suffer from an unproductive, upstairs downstairs environment. In such circumstances it is common for company employ (read full article) |
