CoffeeGeek - Notes from the Road - a Coffee Trip (#)
„I often forget that there are people out there who love coffee, and love serving really good coffee to their customers. Sure, Dutch Brothers, Café Vivace and JJ Bean aren’t the vast multinational conglomerate that Starbucks is but that really is the point of the whole thing. The boss has to know who’s pulling the shots and the person pulling the shots has to know that the boss is watching. Second, as far as making quality coffee at home, I’d rather have a plain old pour-over cone type coffee maker and some excellent beans than second rate equipment for espresso making.“

CoffeeGeek - Mediocre Coffee, It's Your Fault
„During the time I worked as a service tech at JJ Bean, the taste of the coffee coming out of the brewers was part of my domain, along with all the espresso stuff. Consider the following more online training for you, so that you can follow up the next bad cup of coffee you have with some real teeth to what you say, some mustard on your sword (ed.note - what the heck does that mean? ;p)“

CoffeeGeek - Coffee: General Discussion, Freshness of Green Beans
„ I've heard that you're supposed to use decaf within 3 months of it being decaffeinated, but I didn't think it would make such a huge difference. Another thing I've noticed is that JJ Bean selects only Grade 1 beans and on the website of the roaster I have previously used it says "Premium" beans. Grade 1 = Specialty, Grade 2 = Premium. So it's probably both the grade and the green bean freshness that effects the taste, right?“

CoffeeGeek - Bean There, Roasted That, Part One
„ This is one of the most demanding tasks but can also lead to great excitement when an exceptional and unusual offering is discovered. Very few small coffee roasters purchase beans directly from producers and when they do it is usually the result of personal relationships developed over a period of time. Often the road from producer to roaster is a long one involving many middlemen and thousands of miles of transport. Most coffee beans are bought from brokers or merchants who specialise in coffee.“
