Amazon.com: Books: The American Design Adventure (#)
„Nostalgia buffs can riffle through this heavily illustrated history of modern design to savor a Waring drink mixer, a Bendix washer-dryer with chrome propeller handle, a Studebaker Land Cruiser and a Chemex "hourglass" coffeemaker. On a more serious level, this sequel to The American Design Ethic examines whether the industrial designer is an artist creating new standards, a mirror of society's tastes or a wizard of change whose mission is to sustain public demand. Written by the chairman emeritus of Syracuse University's design department, this busy narrative is full of accounts of exhibits, design firms, training programs, trademarks, packaging.“

„We currently stock the largest Cona Size D, that brews 1 quart maximum/1.13 liters, in polished chromed cast steel, gold or silver chrome. We strongly recommend the D model: 2 pints is not that much coffee by American standards.

„You can also program the machine to start brewing at the end of a dinner party to avoid having to get up from the table, or to have hot coffee waiting after a brisk winter walk. When making fewer than five cups of coffee, use the 1-to-4-cups setting to improve extraction and heat; coffeemakers without this setting often lack the time to heat up properly, and coffee comes out cooler. A disposable charcoal filter removes chlorine and odors from tap water, improving coffee flavor, and should be changed every few months. Other features include a gold-tone commercial-style filter (or use No.“

„So the next best thing is to get the samples and roast them in my own lab (er, more like the cupping closet since its a bit overcrowded and small these days). But we also gathered at Royal Coffee's elegant and spacious cupping room to evaluate the coffees prepared on a JB sample roaster, as opposed to my own air roast samples.“
