Keurig B30 Mini Personal Brewer – Black

admin — Tue, 23 Feb 2010 22:21:52 +0000

The Keurig Mini brewer is a great solution for gourmet coffee lovers in locations where a compact size, and minimal features is ideal. It is an excellent companion for vacation homes, cabins, college dorms, boats, RVs, or home office desktops. The Mini is compact, easy to use and brews an 8-ounce cup anywhere you can take it along and plug it in. The mini heats 8 ounces of water in about 3 minutes and then brews just like our regular brewers with no water remaining in the brewer. Now you can enjoy consistently brewed gourmet coffee tea and hot cocoa, virtually anywhere. All Keurig brewers use Keurig’s Patented K-Cup (dedicated pod-like) single portion packs. K-Cups are “mini-brewers” that eliminate the hassle of grinding beans, measuring coffee, handling filters and messy clean-up while brewing a gourmet cup of coffee or tea in less than one minute.

Coffee bean question – What is the difference between brands of gourmet coffee?

admin — Mon, 15 Feb 2010 01:25:58 +0000

I know it’s taste, but what I mean is what makes them different? The beans they use? the method of grinding, or roasting, or something else? And how can I, as the consumer, find this information out? will the website tell me what beans they use, where they come from, how they roast it, etc? Or am I SOL.

Thanks for your answers.

The differences are many. First, a lot of the big name companies buy up an entire ‘lot’ of coffee from a farm, cooperative or a broker. this makes their coffee ‘unique.’
Also a lot of companies blend different coffee origins, some to get a better flavor, some to mask odd flavors from the cheap beans they bought.
There are hundreds of coffee farms and plantations in the world, and no two will taste exactly alike.
Also there are several different cultivars within the coffee bean family, each again, provides it’s own flavor.
And each tree typically produces two crops a year, and each crop has it’s distinct flavors due to rain levels, temperatures, how the bean was handled at picking, how the bean was handled during processing, how the bean was handled after processing, and how the bean was handled during shipping. Was the bean allowed to get too hot intransit? did they get wet in shipping, and how long have they sat in a warehouse.

Get the picture? every bag can be an adventure in taste…
Most coffee brokers that are worth their salt will cup the bean before buying, and cup the bean after delivery. If too much has gone wrong between the two cuppings a good broker will refuse the shipment, others sell it to Floggers, MudwellHorse, Yanka or one of the other sells of slop.
