Tea & Coffee 08/02 - Brewing Justice: Fair Trade Certified Tea in the U.S. (#)
„The market for Fair Trade Certified tea is still new, but growing quickly, and may yet become, as it is in coffee, the fastest growing segment of the specialty industry. In the past year, four more companies have joined Granum in offering Fair Trade Certified tea, and TransFair continues to receive growing interest from tea companies all over the U.S. Most recently, the Sierra Club, one of the nation’s largest environmental organizations, announced they would be launching a Fair Trade Certified tea (to join its recently launched Fair Trade Certified coffee) later this year.“

Tea & Coffee 06/03 - U.S. Specialty Tea: Another False Start or Is It Real This Time?
„“Many of the equipment companies that we’ve been working with have simple coffee brewing machines that are very inexpensive,” he says. “Some of them are under $200, where you can use the stainless steel carafe; you pull the basket out of the unit and the carafe fits right in there with our infuser and it brews right into the carafe. So for around $200, you’ve got an automatic tea brewing system. That’s the best, it’s really cool.“

Tea & Coffee 06/01 - What’s Brewing In Specialty Retail?
„And, as it did in the 1960s, those interested in growing and processing methods and their relation to health and taste have recently found their way back to the coffee world. Today, sustainable farming, awareness of origin, roasting, brewing, and - most importantly - taste, are all major concerns of one specialty coffee roaster and distributor: Allegro Coffee Company, based in Boulder, Colorado.“

„As it turns out, we end up getting a free replacement brewing boiler out of the deal. There's corrosion where the brew groups attach to the boiler and ESI is offering free replacements to the new boiler style for any machines less than five years old. As of March or April 2003 they went to a stainless steel brew group that's welded on rather than the old nickel plated brass style that is bolted on. Bad news is there doesn't appear to be any way at present to do a Schomer mod on the new boiler style (not that I've heard of anyway) but I don't' think I could talk the owners into the mod anyway.“
