„ A natural refrigeration system developed locally uses the appropriate technology in the right environment Summary: An inventor from northern Nigeria (Jigawa State) has developed an efficient electricity-free, "pot-in-pot" cooling system, that is affordable for local communities, and now widely used by them. The system consists of two different-sized earthenware pots, one inside the other. The space between them is filled with water-retentive sand. Perishable food such as eggplants, okra and tomatoes, is placed in the smaller pot and covered with a cloth.“

„With varying degrees of programmability, automation, complexity, and ingredient storage capacity or refrigeration, they start at about $500 and top out around $2,000. Reviews of espressobots that hae been posted on the newsgroups are encouraging. These units are definitely gaining in popularity which means there will be more choices in the near future, perhaps leading to lower prices. Brief Interlude For Shameless and Gratuitous Promotional Message: Once again, I cordially invite manufacturers or distributors of super-automatic home espresso equipment to ship me sample machines for objective evaluation.“

„Consisting of a plastic container and a stainless-steel, fine-mesh strainer, this simple unit converts 3 cups of yogurt into 1 cup of thick, creamy yogurt cheese in about 24 hours of refrigeration. (Thickening continues for 24 hours, though a thinner yogurt cheese results in as little as 2 hours.) The yogurt cheese then becomes a healthful, calcium-rich, low-fat alternative to cream cheese, mayonnaise, sour cream, and even whipping cream. It can be used as a spread, in salad dressings, to top baked potatoes, mixed with fruit, and to make cheesecake. The unit works by allowing the whey (liquid) in yogurt to drain away, leaving the curds behind.“

„But I always caution customers that you can't get $75 worth of quality in any coffee, there's no such thing. You're paying for the experience of quaffing the world's rarest and most expensive coffee. The palate would recognize it as Sumatran or Indonesian right away. It has earthy tones of natural processed Sumatra Mandheling.“

Tea & Coffee 10/02 - Coffee With A Cause
„"It's good to get a reaction because it gets people thinking," she says. "Since we can't import Cuban coffee directly, we're using it as an awareness tool to educate customers about the embargo on Cuba, and get them questioning why can't we have Cuban coffee in the U.S."“
