Caffeine and The Bean (INeedCoffee.com) (#)

  „Due to chemical solubility laws, the caffeine will move from an area of higher concentration (the bean itself) to an area of lower concentration (the extract). Since the extract contains essential oils and the other valuable components of the bean, mostly caffeine seeks its way into the extract and leaves behind the desirable components of the coffee. Done properly, this organic method successfully removes 94 - 96% of the caffeine while it retains more of the flavor compounds present in the essential oils than the chemical methods. Keep in mind that Swiss Water Process coffee beans are generally more expensive than beans treated with a chemical solvent.“

The Steaming Bean (INeedCoffee.com)

  „On the first page they do a great job of telling us who they are, what they sell and how to get their product. The Steaming Bean specializes in 'smoked' coffee and we find this out on the very first page. This signature style of roasting makes them a bit different than your average roaster and this piqued my curiosity.“

Coffee and Fitness: Friends or Foes? (INeedCoffee.com)

  „Aside from tasting good (and smelling even better), coffee is believed to have a number of health benefits. You may not need a man in a white coat to tell you that your daily dose of caffeine counteracts fatigue and improves alertness and concentration, but did you know that research suggests coffee can lessen the risk of heart disease, Parkinson's disease and gallstones as well as act as a powerful antioxidant? So, is caffeine a health booster that actually tastes good? Well, not necessarily.“

So, You Love Coffee, Right?? (INeedCoffee.com)

  „I cut back after my cardiologist said that my poor body has taken all of the caffeine it can take for a grown man – at 38 years of age. I resisted his plea for me to stop drinking coffee altogether, though. I still drink my fair share – and probably yours too – in a given day.“
