CoffeeKid - A Home Roasting Primer (#)

  „The 1950s and 1960s were the epitome of seeking convenience over quality. America was ready to chuck out all those tedious, time consuming home devices, like vacuum coffee brewers, waffle irons, bread pans, cookie cutters and other baking and kitchen devices for the convenience of percolated and drip coffee, prepackaged waffles, loaves of bread from the store, bags of old, dry cookies and more "convenience items". For a time, the majority of N. Americans simply forgot (or shut out) how good these items could be when made at home.“

CoffeeKid - If Someone Says I Hate Italians, it Must Be True!

  „First up, I'm pretty jazzed to be getting a, of all brands, a Krups product soon. Yes, I said Krups! I'm not a fan of their coffee brewers (they brew too cold), but they have brought a Euro-product to the N. American market that is pretty damned cool - the Moka Brew coffee maker.“

CoffeeKid - CoffeeGeek Launches! and new stuff!

  „Patrick Van Den Noortgaete, a fellow from Belgium, recently sent me four of his very amazing balance brewers for Detailed Review status on the CoffeeGeek site. I published a First Look today on them, so go check it out. These are absolutely smashing, 'nuff said. Oh one more thing - if you order via email and mention CoffeeGeek, you get an amazing price on them - about $300 off the list price for the Royal, and $100 off the list for the Cafetino brewer.“

CoffeeKid - The Vacuum Brewer FAQ

  „By the 1920s, Silex was making a good range of glass vacuum brewers, using cloth and metal filters, for the American market. By the 1930s, almost every other small appliance manufacturer was getting in on the game, including Farberware, Westinghouse, Sunbeam, General Electric, Cory, and many others. By the availability of these devices on eBay today, and the amount of advertisements that ran in ladies' magazines during the time between the 30s and the 50s, its a good guess that vacuum brewers enjoyed a huge market in the US, at least during one point in history.“
