Tea & Coffee 02/02 - Working to Help Coffee’s Children (Cont) (#)

„Coordinated efforts on the part of major corporations, significant buyersand/or industry associations can send a strong signal to producing country governments and industry, and international agencies to encourage them to take action on critical issues. One historic moment that highlights such a successful industry collaboration came as the result of the Folgers Boycott in 1991. The boycott, led by the solidarity group, Neighbor to Neighbor, was established with the initial demand that Folgers stop buying El Salvador coffee to encourage quicker resolution to the decade old civil war and related human rights abuses. The demands of the consumer activists were finally met in the form of full page advertisements taken out in all of the major newspapers in El Salvador by the big three national roasters - Folgers, Maxwell House and Nestle - with a strong statement in support of the ongoing peace process in New York.“

The socially responsible shareholders will call on Folgers to immediately begin offering its consumers the choice to buy "Fair Trade certified" coffee.“

Tips on Coffee - Cafe Nation: Coffee Folklore, Magick, and Divination (#)

„As you read the history section of this book you'll see how coffee has been a companion to monks and mystics for centuries.

When seeking to understand your life, use as your map the very things that follow you from day to day. Caf Nation is a trip across continents and oceans to that steaming cup of Java you hold in your hands.“

Home Espresso FAQ (#)

„Just because you take your coffee as espresso doesn't mean you're a speed freak. You won't be moving into the Folgers Wing of the Betty Ford Center. A properly made shot of espresso contains significantly less of the bitter alkaloid caffeine than an 8 ounce mug of your basic office or supermarket swill. See the FAQ on Coffee and Caffeine for the exact milligram measurements of caffeine in a curious collection of consumables including coffee, colas, and candies.“

CoffeeGeek - Bunn Pour-o-Matic - Richard Makelky's Review (#)

„Basically, before the coffee bug bit me, and folgers was "the good stuff" to me, this machine worked fine. Once I discovered non grocery store beans through Mayorga, I began the quick upward spiral to coffee fascination. I have been using my presspot since, but have wanted to get a swissgold filter for the Bunn, but once I checked the temp, I realized this would not be feasible.“

A Coffee Lover's Guide to Tea (INeedCoffee.com) (#)

„Thus the flavor doesn't have the opportunity to fully develop. Furthermore, in general, pre-packaged tea bags are a sign that the tea is of inferior quality (think Lipton's and make an analogy with Folgers). However, there is a time and a place for tea bags, so don't go overboard on this point. Occasionally, I'll have a cup of tea made from a tea bag for the sake of convenience.“

Making Eggspresso (INeedCoffee.com) (#)

„Wondering what kind of sick concoction involved espresso and eggs, I inquired about this item. Would this be some sort of caffeinated cousin to egg drop soup or would I find Folgers Crystals in my omelette? The real menu item wasn't so daring. What I found out was that "Eggspresso" was a method of cooking eggs that involved no espresso at all.“

„Complains about the prices. Complains that you've been using Folgers to deceive customers and save money, etc. The Undead Those whose introduction to coffee was Starbucks. Obviously undemanding, fairly easy to please, but cannot comprehend that the REAL world doesn't use nondairy creamer and *doesn't* call a small coffee "tall".“

Folgers Decaf is a smooth hearty blend that doesn't make you think you're denying yourself because you're skipping on the caffeine.--This text refers toan alternate option.“

„Even more impressive is that whole "better" thing can happen in your own home. If you're in these groups or similar ones, consider this your starter's guide to never going back to Folgers. But be warned. Quality coffee and espresso is a serious, and I mean seriously serious sinkhole of funds, at least for start up costs.“
