Coffee Pod Questions and Answers
(#)
„What is the quantity of coffee for each cup from the SENSEO® coffee maker? Is there a chocolate flavor coffee pod that can be used with the SENSEO® Coffee Maker? Which varieties of coffee pods are available? What are the differences between the four coffee varieties? Are the SENSEO® coffees made from pure Arabica beans? What is the origin of the SENSEO® coffee blends? Why should I register in for Club SENSEO®? What material is used to manufacture the coffee pod filters and are they bleached with chloride? The coffee pods are manufactured with filter paper made of all natural fibers. All of the filter paper used to make coffee pods are oxygen bleached, and no chloride is used in the process. Back to top Is SENSEO® coffee only ground or freeze dried as well? SENSEO® coffee, after roasting, is only ground. To keep the coffee as fresh as possible after roasting, it is packaged quickly after grinding in a protective atmosphere, locking out oxygen as much as possible, as oxygen ages the coffee.“http://www.senseo.com/en/senseous/serviceandsupport/faqs/coffeepodqa/ - Cached

„Prior to the November implementation, Green Mountain will install new bulk bin displays in stores that feature information to help consumers understand the importance of Fair Trade coffee and what it means to the coffee farmers. "With a global coffee crisis upon us and coffee prices at 100-year lows, we believe that, as a food company, it is our responsibility to do our part to make a difference in coffee producing communities," said Perry Odak, President and CEO of Wild Oats Markets, Inc. "By helping to educate consumers about the extremely serious issues facing coffee growers, and by making a commitment to selling only organic Fair Trade coffee in our bulk and foodservice departments, we are not only bolstering the socioeconomic stature of these farmers, but we are helping to preserve the environment by supporting sustainable organic agricultural practices. We hope other companies will take our lead to create more demand for coffees that not only taste great, but are procured at a fair price."When consumers see the Fair Trade Certified label, it provides assurance that the farmers received a fair minimum floor price for their harvest that covers the cost of sustainable production.“http://www.transfairusa.org/content/about/ pr_021011.php - Cached
„5. For all coffees, inquire about the processing. Make sure they process the coffee immediately upon harvesting. Otherwise you are guaranteed a fermented cup since coffee begins fermenting immediately upon picking. Ask how they use the fermentation tanks and why? Do they separate out coffees that float to the top of the tanks during fermentation? After pulping do they separate coffees by density before they add them to the tanks? Only estates that have dedicated a significant amount of time to improving quality will know why these steps are important and necessary. If coffee pulp is present in the tanks during processing it can result in brownish tinges on the green beans. This is also indicative of harvesting over-ripe cherries.“http://www.coffeeresearch.org/coffee/buying.htm - Cached

Selecting a Coffee Brewing Method
(#)
„I had a mild, delicate cup of coffee with a lot less acidity than hot brewed coffees. I would recommend this method of coffee making if you prefer a very mild, almost weak cup of coffee, if you tend to find coffee making a daily chore, particularly if you make it just for yourself or if you found regular coffee making methods would produce a cup of coffee that was just too harsh on your stomach. This may be the direction for you to take. Conversely, if you prefer your coffee strong like me or are an impatient coffee maker, then I would definitely not recommend this method.“http://www.sallys-place.com/beverages/coffee/ right_for_you.htm - Cached

„That way, the essential battle between water pressure and compacted coffee is ensured and correct extraction takes place." We understand you, Ewan. But to make things even simpler, here are a few bullet points: - dose the ground coffee into the portafilter and tap its side with your hand to even out the surface - tamp once with about 20 psi of pressure (in other words, firm but not too hard!) - tap the portafilter again - tamp again with 40 psi pressure this time (about as firm as you can manage with the hand you don't use for writing) - "polish" the coffee surface by twisting the portafilter slightly under the tamp - dust off the edges of the portafilter before locking it into the group head and making a heavenly espresso - When done with style and bravura, the entire tamping process will take a barista about 5 seconds. Practice...practice.“http://www.matthewalgie.com/find_out/ lab-tamper.html - Cached

„Using the ABTS•+ method (the gold standard), it was confirmed that light roast or medium roast coffee has a significantly higher antioxidant activity in vitro than green coffee (8). This difference was observed despite a 19% and 45% decrease in the chlorogenic acid content of light and medium roast coffee respectively implying that other compounds make significant contributions to the total antioxidant activity of roasted coffee. Melanoidins are brown polymers formed by the Maillard reaction during the roasting of coffee beans and account for up to 25% of the dry matter. It has recently been shown by the ABTS•+ method that coffee melanoidins have significant antioxidant activity in vitro (9). “http://www.cosic.org/coffee-and-health/ antioxidants - Cached
„Giorgio Milos, an instructor at illycaffè's University of Coffee in Trieste, Italy teaches baristas from all over the world how to prepare the perfect espresso and cappuccino as well as a host of iced specialty drinks and cocktails. Giorgio recommends, "Make your espresso fresh for iced drinks, as coffee oxidizes after several hours. You won't have the same bright flavor using old coffee." Milos also recommends chilling the glasses in advance and using prepared sugar syrup rather than granulated sugar as it dissolves quicker in cold liquids. If you can't purchase sugar syrup (also called simple syrup) in your local supermarket or gourmet shop, you can make your own easily by boiling equal parts sugar and water.“http://www.illyusa.com/pr/ cold_coffee_drinks.htm - Cached

:: Confusion About Infusion ::

„It's essential to strike a balance between these two forms of extraction or, as Ewan Reid put it, "The ratio of diffusive extraction to flush-through kinetics can greatly alter the character of the cup." Well put. For those of us who didn't attain Ewan's degree in Food Science, it can be simplified thus: Adding some of the brewing water to the wad of coffee grounds makes them swell up, and this change in particle size and extraction results in your brew having a different taste and mouth feel. From a sensory point of view, then, a careful use of pre-infusion can optimise your cup of espresso if necessary. It ought to raise the perceived body of the drink whilst also reducing acidity.“http://www.matthewalgie.com/find_out/ lab-confusion.html - Cached

„When my parents come to visit, we drink together and talk or argue as the case may be, over a cup of the strong black stuff. Although, I must say, I resent having to wake up at the crack of dawn to make coffee for them, as the machine itself seems to mystify them both. They're used to the old-fashioned percolators. I have found something new that connects me to my family.“http://www.koffeekorner.com/new_page_5.htm - Cached

„The coyotes offer farmers much needed cash—today—for beans later. It is only later that the farmers realize that they really did sell their coffee "for beans." Now they will not have enough money to make it to the next harvest, leaving them at the mercy of the coyote once again. The cycle, once in place, is very difficult to break. “http://www.lwr.org/coffee/faith.asp - Cached

Like Sumatran, its acidity vibrates inside the richness of the body, but Yirgacheffe adds a soft, fragrant, flowery note so distinctive that it may make this the most unique among the world's coffees.“http://www.lucidcafe.com/bycountry2.html - Cached

„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. Such thin, over-extracted coffee will taste so bad that it's better to start over than to insult your palate or guests by serving it.“http://www.coffeereview.com/ reference.cfm?id=218 - Cached
