The Seattle Sustainable Coffee Campaign will focus public attention on the social and environmental issues brewing in our coffee and highlight sustainable coffee choices, including organic, shade-grown and Fair Trade Certified coffees. Upcoming campaign events will feature noted environmentalists, visiting coffee farmers, and musicians Bonnie Raitt, Jackson Browne, and Keb Mo -- plus the many concerned Seattle consumers, roasters, and retailers who have built a groundswell of support for sustainable coffees. "The leadership on Fair Trade from concerned consumers and coffee industry leaders in Seattle is most encouraging - and it couldn't come at a better time," says Paul Rice, TransFair's Executive Director.“

Amazon.com: Books: Coffee : A Guide to Buying, Brewing, and Enjoying, Fifth Edition (#)

„Davids' book is truly comprehensive. Besides giving us a fairly detailed history of coffee, from its origins in Arabia (or Ethiopia) through to its latest manifestation in the flavored espressos of the modern mall, the book includes chapters on Buying It, Tasting It, Roasting It, Grinding It, Brewing It, and Serving It. Detailed information is given on the special qualities and characteristics of all coffees of the many regions of the world which produce it (Guatemala; Honduras; Costa Rica; Jamaica; Puerto Rico; Haiti; Colombia; Peru; Brazil; Yemen; Ethiopia; Kenya; Uganda; India; Sumatra; Java; New Guinea; Hawaii, etc.), and on the merits and demerits of the many different methods of brewing and the best utensils for each of them (Open-Pot; French Press or Plunger; Drip Brewing (both with and without filters); Flip-Drip or Neapolitan Macchinetta; Pumping Percolator (now passe and the best way to ruin coffee); Filter-Drip, automatic and otherwise; Concentrate; Middle Eastern or Turkish; Soluble or Instant, etc.). There is also a very full discussion of espresso and just why it produces the ultimate cup.“

Coffee Brewing (#)

„Coffee brewing is as much of an art as it is a science. The history of coffee brewing devices is rich, and methods of brewing are culturally dependent. Of the thousands of coffee machines and brewing devices invented since the advent of coffee consumption only a few have gained worldwide popularity. The methods discussed below are recommended since they have been found to maximize the extraction of the beneficial flavors of coffee, while minimizing the extraction of bitter and undesirable components.“

Selecting a Coffee Brewing Method (#)

„This can be done via an electronic drip machine where the water is sprayed over the grounds, or manually poured over grounds in a cone-shaped filter. Some electronic models allow you to preset the coffee brewing mechanism so you can have you first wake-up cup as soon as you stumble out of bed. Although convenience and ease is certainly desirable, remember those coffee beans will have been ground for 7-8 hours exposed to air and so expect some flavor loss with this pre-set drip method. An additional note is the use of paper filters will absorb some of the flavor- producing oils from your coffee.“

JAMA -- Abstract: A Prospective Study of Coffee Consumption and the Risk of Symptomatic Gallstone Disease in Men, June 9, 1999, Leitzmann et al. 281 (22): 2106 (#)

„After adjusting for other known or suspected risk factors, compared with men who did not consume regular coffee in 1986 and 1990, the adjusted relative risk (RR) for those who consistently drank 2 to 3 cups of regular coffee per day was 0.60 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.42-0.86) and for those who drank 4 or more cups per day the RR was 0.55 (95% CI, 0.33-0.92). All coffee brewing methods showed a decreased risk. The risk of symptomatic gallstone disease also declined with increasing caffeine intake (P for trend=.005). After controlling for known or suspected risk factors, the RR for men in the highest category of caffeine intake (>800 mg/d) compared with men in the lowest category (“

„A good example of body would be that of the feeling of whole milk in your mouth, as compared to water. Your perception of the body of a coffee is related to the oils and solids extracted during brewing. Typically, Indonesian coffees will possess greater body than South and Central American coffees. If you are unsure of the level of body when comparing several coffees, try adding an equal amount of milk to each.“

„This is primarily for inexpensive, soluble coffees, though tastes are evolving toward improved quality and novel characteristics, such as premixed cappuccino. Soluble is an important key to developing these traditionally tea-drinking markets because most consumers are unfamiliar with coffee-brewing methods and paraphernalia and less able to afford these. North America and Japan are growing slowly. Northern European consumption, particularly in Germany is stagnant, but in southern Europe, there are some increases.“

The Coffee Review - the world's leading coffee buying guide (#)

„Consequently, collect only as much coffee as you will actually serve. If you are brewing one serving, cut off the flow of coffee after one serving has dribbled out, even if you have two servings' worth of ground coffee in the filter basket. If you are brewing two servings, cut off the flow after two. And no matter how many servings you are trying to make, never allow the coffee to bubble and gush into your serving carafe or cup.“

„Instead, they suggest plunging immediately. The choice is yours.While the coffee is brewing, it is worth jiggling the plunger slightly after a minute or so. This will stop all the grounds sitting in a big wad at the top and will improve the brew.Coffee made in plunger pots is better than that made in a filter maker because the metal filter used lets more of the flavour through.Unfortunately, there is a downside to the cafétière experience. What to do with the grounds?“

Cafe´ de Colombia - ROASTS (#)

„Contrary to popular belief, a dark roast does not equal a richer, stronger cup. Roasting plays no part in determining the strength of a cup of coffee: you do when determining the amount of water and coffee to be used when brewing. Lightly roasted coffee beans have a sharper, more acidic taste than darker roasts. The coffee suffers less heat exposure, which maintains the bean's qualities.“

Mr. Coffee® - Tips (#)

„Pack the filter correctly. The water must flow down evenly over the entire surface area of the coffee for correct brewing. If the coffee is packed too loosely, the water will flow through the center and produce a bitter taste. If it's too dense, it will not pass through the coffee at all.“
