Ben Kaminsky Advanced Brewing Workshop

On September 2nd we're proud to host Ben Kaminsky's Advanced Brewing Techniques workshop at our roastery on Godth?bsvej. If you're a professional barista this is one to attend!

You can purchase tickets for the event here: http://coffeebrews.eventbrite.com/
Ben will be presenting some of his research and new insights on coffee and espresso brewing, grinding, and roasting, that are sure to answer some long standing questions and likely raise many more (e.g. Is espresso brewing inherently flawed? What actually constitutes an espresso roast?).

He will be focusing heavily on techniques surrounding the EK43 grinder, including how to produce a "coffee shot", a new way for brewing filter coffee that he thinks will likely replace the industry's best and fastest brewers to date. This course covers practical ways to improve quality while decreasing costs, as well as new possibilities for coffee and espresso service.

Half the course will be spent in practical tasting of the theory covered in the lecture.

Ben recommends you understand the basic elements of extraction, including practical use of an Extract Mojo if you want to get the most out of the class, though beginners are also welcomed.

September 2nd 2013. 15:00-18:00 (approx). Lecture and tasting.

5 years on Jægersborggade !

On February 15th 2008 after been roasting coffee in a warehouse near the airport and doing wholesale to a few places around Denmark, we finally opened our own coffee shop on J?gersborggade. It was a big step for us back then and it was the realization of our original dream for this company: To have an open roastery and coffee shop combined.

This is what it looked like a few days before opening:

Next week it's 5 years since we opened and we're gonna celebrate that. J?gersborggade has been a second home to us and it's been amazing to see the transformation the street has undergone. From dope dealers to michelin stars.

So we'd like to welcome all our friends and followers to The Coffee Collective J?gersborggade's 5 Year Birthday Party on Friday February 15th!

All day we'll be giving out free espressos and from 15:00 we'll have open cuppings with Peter, Casper and Klaus will reclaim the bar (and probably play some awful outdated 2008 electro-clash music) while Linus will be taking good care of everyone with lots of cake and coffee. As a special brithday treat you'll get a free bag of our first Direct Trade coffee, Finca Vista Hermosa, when purchasing our book 'God Kaffe'.

We hope to see a lot of you there for a very special day!

Article from Kenya now online

On January 6th one of Denmark's biggest newspapers Berlingske Tidende published a great article on coffee. Food and wine reviewer S?ren Frank had followed our director Peter Dupont and michelin star chef Henrik Yde on their trip to Kenya.

The result became a five full page article detailing how coffee is grown and processed in Nyeri, Kenya as well as the work that goes into cupping and sourcing the best lots. During harvest there usually isn't much to cup, but this year we wanted to discover more about the work happening at that crucial time. We can always cup the lots back home. However, there was several lots that they were already drying and possible to cup, but the final purchasing decisions and lot selection won't happen until the lots are fully dried and processed at the CKCM dry mill, which is still another couple of weeks.

In any case, the full article (in Danish) is now online for your reading pleasure:

Close to 40% less CO2 emissions from a cup of coffee in our shops!

Windmills at Middelgrunden. Photo by Kim Hansen, sourced from Wikimedia Commons Since 2010 we have been buying shares in Middelgrundens Vindm?llelaug (www.middelgrunden.dk) who owns the mills standing in the waters just outside of Copenhagen. Now we have supplemented this with buying electricity from the supplier Vindst?d, that delivers electricity which is 100% wind mill based (vindstoed.dk). We are therefore very proud to say that now all the electricity we use at the The Coffee Collective will be produced on wind mills. In life cycle assesments of the coffee production, the part of the production with the highest energy consumption p? mL of finihed coffee brew is often found to be the actual brewing. See the following table for details in terms of CO2 equivalents.

Source: http://www.appropedia.org/LCA_of_coffee
The primary consumption of energy in the brewing process is the heating of water which normally will be done by using electricity. Therefore by switching our electricity source to wind mills we have reduced the total CO2 emissions pr. cup of coffee by almost 40%!

The new crop Yukro is on the shelves

In our busy busy work week we've neglected to inform you all that we now have the fresh crop of Yukro on the shelves. We had hoped to receive the Yukro earlier, but it got delayed at the dry mill for quite some time. Partly because we had some special wishes for the separation and sorting. But we're happy to have the fresh lot available.

Did anyone say Abyssinian Dawn?

This would also be a good time to read up on our visit to Yukro at the beginning of the harvest. Check out our travel report here.

The fresh lot is really aromatic, reminding of citrus-infused teas, peach, apples and lavender. We've roasted it very light and really pushed those aromatics.

Panorama of Yukro wet mill

Besides 250 g whole beans to bring home Yukro is available per cup brewed on Aeropress at J?gersborggade and Godth?bsvej and Kalita Wave at Torvehallerne. You can also purchase it through our webshop.

Dairy Farm Visit to Øllingegaard

For the past few years we've been using milk from a dairy called ?llingegaard just 40 km out of Copenhagen. We've been doing blind tastings of different milk for the past 12 years in Denmark now, tasting the milk both cold, warm and in cappuccinos, and ?llingegaard won our last tasting. On top of that it's now the only dairy farm on Sj?lland and the nearest to Copenhagen which means much shorter transportation than from Jutland.

Vis stort kort
We use quite a lot of milk in our coffee shops and we love a good cappuccino. Now we thought it was time to go visit our milk supplier and learn more about what they do. So eight of us got in a rental and drove up to visit them.

?llingegaard is a small dairy owner by Solhvervfonden - a foundation committed to spread organic practices for the past 20 years. It's a for-profit foundation that use the money gathered for projects in third world countries. The dairy is situated in beautiful, old, yellow farm buildings from 1925 and have been a dairy since 1995. Of course 100% organic.

As a side note, there used to be one other privately owned dairy in Sj?lland called Osted Mejeri. Unfortunately they went bankrupt this summer. A great loss for the milk diversity in Denmark which is dominated by milk giant Arla. Now there's pretty much only ?llingegaard, Naturm?lk and Thise left.

?llingegaard Dairy
Dairy supervisor Michael Christensen took us around the dairy production.
The milk is delivered from 11 farms on Sj?lland within hours of milking. It used to be just 8 farms delivering milk, but since the closure of Osted three of the farms that used to deliver there have signed on to ?llingegaard. Which is good, as they really needed more milk.
Dairy manager Michael Christensen
The farmers milk the cows twice a day, early in the morning around 5 and in the afternoon around 3 o'clock. The milk is tested for bacteria and antibiotics upon arrival at the dairy. It gets filtered at the farm and again at the dairy, but in general ?llingegaard is careful about not moving or pumping the milk around excessively. Too much movement and disturbance of the milk damages the taste. Where other large dairy's move their milk several kilometres through pipes the milk at ?llingegaard doesn't travel more than a few metres. The milk is also not homogenised for the same reason, which means the fat particles collect at the top of the milk - sometimes a bit of a problem for us though.
Learning about yoghurt
Beside fresh milk ?llingegaard does amazing butter, which have won numerous awards. It's the one we use at Godth?bsvej too. Talking to Michael about butter really reminded us about ourselves - complete geeks in a certain field. Yoghurt was another topic, and it amazing to see how much knowledge and work is behind these products. ?llingegaard churns their butter in the old-fashioned way on a huge machine and packs it while it's the consistency of mayonnaise. All products go out to stores immediately and ?llingegaard have been a leader in terms of milk freshness. Any products that are in excess is donated to the homeless shelters in Copenhagen.

We also went to visit one of the farms that deliver the milk. Hans Peter Kamp and his wife welcomed us to their beautiful farm with a view over Isefjorden. Here they have 75 hectares of land with 100 milk cows of the Jersey breed. They bought the farm together with another family around 20 years ago, when it was in a very poor state. It hadn't been used for years and the buildings were almost falling together. They've renovated it a lot since and build a new stable for the cows.
Farmer Hans Peter Kampp, a neighbouring co-farmer and his wife
Clearly they work hard, from early morning till late evening. But as they said, it's more a way of life and there's plenty of short cuts you could take - that's just not what they wanted to do. They've chosen to be organic and not expand with too many cows, so they can keep everything running in the right way. They are self-supplying with corn and fodder/feed for the cows. It requires 500 tonnes of hay each year for the cows, so there's lots of work to do in the summer time to prepare for winter.

Milking machine
We got to taste the raw milk from the same morning. Completely yellow and rich, with a fat content up around 6,1% (Jersey cows produce more fat and protein than the regular Danish Black & White Milk Cow breed). It tasted really fresh and aromatic and wasn't just heavy and fat. You could clearly sense the brighter herbal and floral aromas in the milk, which probably stems from the grass, weed and herb feed that the cows munch on all summer. They are still outside this time of year and aren't brought in until it starts to rain heavily. You'd think that was how all farms are, but fact is only a fourth of all milk cows in Denmark are ever on grass! An astonishing fact, but it's only a requirement within the organic certification that the cows are brought to pasture for 6 months. Most (3/4) of all conventional milk cows never see grass, but are kept in stables throughout the year.

All in all it was great to see where our milk come from and meet some of the people - and cows - behind it. We're very proud to be working with like-minded people on this other important product in our shops, and already look forward to visiting them again.

Muh!

How Different Grades of Coffee Beans Are Grown And Produced

Coffee beans are grown and produced in many parts of the world, but mostly in areas that lie near the equatorial region. The quality of coffee beans is dependant on different natural factors that is beyond the farmers' control but one that farmers need to vigilantly consider if high grade beans is the desired result. Coffee crops grown in high altitude location tends to produce richer and stronger flavor characteristics than those grown in lower altitude location. The soil at which these crops is grown at determines the distinct flavor of the bean produced.

While there's no standard coffee grade chart available, coffee beans are still priced according to their quality. One of the most high-priced coffee beans is perhaps the Blue Mountain Coffee. Grown and produced in the Blue Mountains area of Jamaica, Blue Mountain coffee is famous for its mild flavor and not too bitter taste. A pack of beans that's officially qualified as Blue Mountain Coffee can easily fetch numerous times the price of the regular beans that one buys in the market.

Another premium type of coffee is the Kopi Luwak that hails from Indonesia. Such is the reputation of Kopi Luwak that some specialty stores have attached a price tag as high as US$100 or maybe more simply for a cup of espresso brewed from the bean. While Indonesia is known for its rich volcanic soil and idylic weather condition to grow coffee, one of the most interesting thing contributing to the reputation of Kopi Luwak is nothing to do with all these. Kopi Luwak is able to bring such premium because of its rarity since the beans are harvested not by people but civet cats.

Naturally, the curious question that every coffee enthusiast will be asking is if it is worth paying such premium for these types of bean. The one thing with human is basically because we're living in a generally capitalist world, we often convince ourselves when we have two options to pick from, the more costly choice will certainly be superior. But what I've learned along the years is such stereotypes in many cases are dumbfounded and you've to establish your personal definition of good before you know if something is good for the cost it fetches.

To illustrate this point further, ask yourself this simple question. There are beautiful coffee makers being displayed and sold in the department stores, with price tags ranging from few hundreds to few thousands of dollars. Yet, there are simple coffee makers such as drip or French Press based, that cost merely tens of dollars. Which do you think will produce in superior brew? Unless you are a true coffee connoiseur who really understands what it takes to make a perfect brew, the more expensive ones are more likely to be the typical answer that I get from most people. It may be hard to accept, but it turns out that the best coffee maker is still the French Press.

To answer the question on what a difference do premium coffee beans make, it does make a difference. Nevertheless the more valid question, in my opinion, should be how much of a premium should you pay for a particular type of beans. That to me, seems like a far more intelligent question that every caffeine lover ought to be asking.

You want to become your own barista in your own kitchen. The prices of French Press coffee makers are only few tens of dollars while the prices of Espresso machines are in the range of hundreds. You will not be alone if you think that coffee brewed out of French Press is not good. But as a matter of fact, they can actually produce the finest cup of coffee and better still, the cheapest option. Coffee is my passion and I like to blog about it. The more I know about coffee, the more I am fascinated by it.

What To Name Your New Coffee Franchise Opportunities

So you've taken the plunge. After years of saving, you've finally decided to invest coffee franchise opportunities. All of the technical aspects are underway and now you're left with one deciding factor. What will the name of your new business be? As trivial as a name sounds, this is the most important. Getting attention is all about the first impression so you want to have a name and branding image that keeps people interested. It should be simple to remember and original. The following guide gives examples of potential names and formulas you can use to make the right choice.

Give your name authority. Make it sound strong and have an air of a leader. Your coffee franchise opportunities will flop without a powerful air of authority. As misogynistic as it may sound, studies show that male names create this sort of persona for company names. Your franchise could be called Mr. Coffee Van or even Dr. Italian Roasted. There is not as much success found in businesses that use female names but don't be afraid to try a few out. Espresso Goddess definitely sounds commanding, with its Greek roots and mythical status. No matter if you choose male or female just make sure that it sounds like you are the best. If you act like a leader of the trade, your business name should reflect it.

Use military references in the title. Much like an army, your coffee franchise opportunities evoke feelings of consistency, determination, and pride. Coffee Army sounds like people who are willing to fight for your right to a great cup of coffee and they never fail to protect you from harmful pesticides. Be careful with your use of this word though. In times of war, military jargon can be thrown around constantly, and often there are negative associations made. The last thing you want to do is offend someone.

With a company name like "A2Z Coffee", you cover two important bases. Both numbers and letters are great ways to name your coffee franchise opportunity. These are symbols that everyone can recognize and they are easy to remember. This name sounds like it covers every aspect of the coffee trade. Recognition noticed from top to bottom and beginning to end. Warning... be wary of some letters. With a name like "F Coffee", you're either implying they get a failing grade or are using language that could be interpreted as inappropriate.

Make it exciting! There's no better way to hype up a crowd of normal people than with a cup of caffeine and an exclamation point to make be heard. If you want to sound excited about selling your product, your name has to tell the same story. The whole point of drinking coffee in a mobile setting is to make it quick. "Coffee For You!" sounds like you'll get it as quickly to them as it will take them to wake up. Find a phrase or name that you can make sound exciting but also genuine. Enthusiastic names will bring the most customers to your coffee franchise opportunities.

What Are The Pros Of Coffee Franchise Opportunities

Deciding to act upon coffee franchise opportunities is a major choice. There is always the option to start a brand new business for yourself but you have to consider all the costs and benefits. The first question you need to ask yourself is, "What kind of business owner do I want to be?" If your answer is one who has completely independence and requires innovation, then this isn't the path for you. However, most people want some stability, so a franchise is a great business plan to follow. This guide explains the positive aspects of owning a franchise.

Starbucks has added an average of two stores every day for over twenty years. It's a global brand that is recognized no matter which language you speak. No matter if you go to a store in San Francisco or Hvar, Croatia, you are guaranteed to get the same product from the same set menu. This type of brand awareness is a benefit of coffee franchise opportunities. Customers already love the brand and your new store is just an extension of that loyalty. If you're an entrepreneur who is on your own, you may not have calculated all the negative aspects on working to build your own brand. With a franchise you know people will come because half the work of getting their attention is cut out.

One valuable aspect of coffee franchise opportunities is that equipment and supplies are readily available. New products will have to be brought in daily and the costs slowly add up with delivery prices, broken parts, overhead, and small mistakes. Franchisers often will give discounts and support for these necessities. You also can't forget about the location of the business. A carefully planned real estate search for your building can take months at a time and competition is aggressive depending on the size of the city. With a franchise you have a much better chance of finding a suitable space much faster.

Certain legal agreements are required when taking part in coffee franchise opportunities. The company must disclosure all information to you. This is because franchises are highly regulated by state and federal laws. If there is ever a problem that you were not aware of prior to transaction, the law protects your right as a business owner. This wouldn't be the case if you just took over an older shop and reinvented it.

For every latte that is over poured is money wasted. At first when you wanted to start your business you thought training employees would be easy but it takes years of experience to know what to expect. Foresight is gained and not given. Your coffee franchise opportunities will prevent alternatives to novice mistakes. Extensive handbooks and advice is given to you from professionals and consultants who know exactly how to go about job training. To develop as a true business leader, being caught up in mundane tasks like writing non-disclosure agreements and inventing training manuals will take away from the company's overall success. Franchises prevent this from happening to your coffee shop.

What Legal Documents Are Required For Coffee Franchise Opportunities

An open honest relationship is essential between a franchisor and franchisee. Coffee franchise opportunities present a business relationship that will last for years and the groundwork must be laid clearly. Before entering into an agreement both parties must have a clear understanding of the relationship they are about to enter. The legal documents required for this agreement are extensive. This may scare you away but don't let it. As long as you have carefully researched the required materials and speak to veteran professionals, your business will thrive.

The following information lists two main legal documents that are required for coffee franchise opportunities. Federal and state laws in the United States require that both of these be filled out before entering into any kind of agreement. For the franchise relationship to be recognized, these forms must be filled out perfect. If not, you stand a chance of breaking the law and risking your investment. Once you have investigated these papers, contact an attorney with franchise experience. This will prevent any mistakes.

The Disclosure Document (FDD) is meant to provide people interested in buying a franchise with information. The document explains what the franchisor does, who they are, and what they expect. The coffee franchise opportunities will have a specific system and set of agreements that need to be established before you make the decision to buy. The FDD also includes the complete franchise agreement, which needs to be signed before you can open up your mobile coffee shop. The whole point of this section is to fully inform and educate you about rules and policies that they expect from you. It's almost like entering into a marriage agreement. The idea is nice, but there needs to be a history of trust and written agreements to make it real.

The FDD includes information about the franchisor, the company's important staff, experience in franchise management, and the bankruptcy and litigation history. You will learn about the history of the company and who's involved in these coffee franchise opportunities. Also, the fees will be stated, required investments, territory rights, and the responsibilities of the franchisor and franchisee. After sharing all of this information there is a period of 14 days in which the company must allow the buyer to think about the decision. You will not be allowed to say yes right away. If you're an impulsive person this benefits your tendency to please those around you.

The Franchise Agreement Document is a more specific list of information that you must sign. This document goes into more detail about the territory, rights, duration, and payments. Talk with a lawyer or accountant after you have the initial meeting about your coffee franchise opportunities. Once you have worked through the logistics and considered the pros and cons, it's time to decide. You are about to enter a full-fledged legal binding contract but also one of the most successful ventures set up in the United States work force.

The Health and Nutritional Benefits of Using Green Coffee Bean Extract

Is it possible for you to lose weight without changing your lifestyle - no diet and no exercise? This seems impossible to traditional supporters of the natural method to weight loss. However, this became achievable according to many successful users of the green coffee bean extract. This weight losing method became phenomenal when this was the main topic discussed in one of the Dr. Oz TV episodes.

The beneficial components of coffee were unveiled in the research about the difference between the green coffee and the brown/black coffee. The first distinguishing feature of the green coffee is the use of these beans in their natural form - no roasting. The black/ brown coffee beans are roasted. The result - roasting takes away the most important components of the coffee beans. When roasted, most of the antioxidants in the beans are lost; roasting takes off the chlorogenic acid which is the secret to losing weight.

Chlorogenic acid is the natural antioxidant found in the unroasted green coffee beans. Just like any antioxidant, this acid helps to combat the free radicals. The chlorogenic acid contains fat burner properties. These are the two functions that bring forth the health benefits and weight losing property of green coffee bean extract.

Weight losing properties made the green coffee bean extract reach the current level of popularity. You lose weight because of the chlorogenic acid that acts as the fat burner. As a user of this supplement, it is to your advantage if you want to try and understand how losing weight happens.

The chlorogenic acid possesses fat burning properties. It hastens metabolism such that the stored fats are burned faster. Furthermore, the absorption of glucose is hindered such that sugar in the system is controlled. The sugar is supposed to be your source of energy. However, in its absence due to the control of glucose, the body has to get energy from the stored fats. Continuous use of the stored fats will result to continuous loss of weight.

The chlorogenic acid is a fat burner and the coffee is an appetite suppressant. These two functions are the reasons why this extract is acclaimed as a new method of losing weight naturally. The chlorogenic acid was proved to have a positive effect on human metabolism in that it boosts this process of fat burning. The stored fat has been turned into energy which in turn causes the inhibition of body fats. There had been disclosures that this acid has the capability to cause a slow-down in the release of glucose - from liver to blood. As glucose is controlled, the body will resort to use of stored fats in lieu of sugar to energize its functions. With this, the burned fat cells will cause diminishing weight. It is also a great appetite suppressant that even powers up loss of weight.

Although weight loss also falls under health benefits, I have specifically categorized it as a separate benefit because this is what the green coffee bean extract had become famous for. Now, let us have the other benefits which are equally important.

Turkish Coffee - Uncovering The Secrets of a Unique Coffee

Turkish coffee is an unknown beverage to many coffee drinkers. It is actually the earliest known caffeine drink. The questions of what is it and how is it prepared are viewed as the most frequent ones that people ask.

What is Turkish coffee?

There are a few debates about this question among aficionados of caffeine beverages. hese arguments are mainly separated into two main broad categories.

Type. It is the only powder ground coffee. Roasted beans are ground until a powder substance comes out of the mill.Making method. Turkish coffee brewing is the first preparation method of a hot caffeine drink in the world. It was invented by the Turks around 1600 AD.

The answer to this question is the combination of both categories. Turkish coffee is a powder type coffee that you brew it in a unique method.

There are many countries in the world that have Turkish coffee as the main caffeine drink in their everyday life. Most of them though, if not all, have changed the original name to resemble mostly their ethnic or region identities. Greek, Serbian, Israeli and Arabic are a few examples.

How can you make Turkish coffee?

The brewing method of Turkish coffee is considered unique. It is the only one that you actually cook. The beverage must come to a simmer point while brewing. This is the major difference of Turkish coffee to the other brewing methods (Espresso, Drip filtration, French press, etc.). Other dissimilarities include the thick-rich foam on the top and the grounds at the bottom of the cup.

Have also in mind the following small details before you proceed:

You add sugar in the beginning of its brewing process (if you are going to use).This is a black, strong coffee. You make it with water. You don't serve it with milk on the side.You don't need any spoon in its serving saucer. You don't stir it because the grounds must settle at the bottom of the cup.

The recipe is simple.

First you must have a special pot which is the most suitable utensil to hold the foam of the Turkish coffee. Then you mix in the pot ground Turkish style coffee (1 full teaspoon per person) with cold water (1 demitasse cup per person) and sugar (optional & depending on taste - usually 1 teaspoon is considered enough).

Place the pot on low heat. Stir its contents well and let it cook for a while. Before it reaches the boiling point, remove the pot from the heat. Allow the froth to settle down. Follow this procedure for 2 more times.

Divide coffee and foam into demitasse cups. (A failure to produce enough foam for all persons is regarded as a non-successful brewing attempt). Serve with a glass of cold water.

NOTES:

The glass of water issue is very important in Turkish coffee serving. Since it is strong and bitter water will clean your palate and will prepare the mouth for the flavor.

If you want to show professionalism in serving then you can accompany it with Turkish delights (small pieces of soft, sugar dusted candies with gummy texture).

Always Be Well Stocked with Consumables

There can be few more disappointing experiences than going to a vending machine but not getting the snack or drink of your choice. It is also a sure shot method of turning away customers who might have become frequenters. It is this risk of losing custom and acquiring a bad name in the trade which makes vending machine refilling so critical. You have several options with regard to refilling. You can do so yourself by marking specific days in the week or month when you replenish the stocks of your vending machines. On the other hand, you can have a contract with someone to do so.

How often you need to re-stock your machines depends on factors like location, season, offtake and capacity of the machine. Certain products like soft drinks and hot beverages will have a seasonal fluctuation in offtake. There will be some non-repetitive occasions like if there is a large gathering at a specific location due to an event occurring there could be a bigger than normal turnover of products. If you have fore-knowledge of it then you can capitalize on it by ensuring that your vending machine is fully packed with the products which have the highest demand. For vending machine refilling in Peterborough or areas around it, you can have an arrangement with people like Kenco Local Business Service.

Certain models of vending machines are designed to cater to a large crowd while others are smaller. For times when a smaller machine has to cater to a raised demand you should be flexible about the refilling schedule. If you have contracted with suppliers for refilling, then you should inform them in advance for times when you can foresee a sudden surge in demand. Otherwise, the terms of the contract should ensure that refilling is assured when there is a higher than usual offtake. Similarly, if your machines are located in educational institutions like schools, colleges and universities, you would need to budget for diminished offtake during the vacations. You might even consider keep them non-functional at such times if you find that the sale does not justify the operational costs at such locations.

Even a Tight Budget Does Not Necessarily Mean Cutting Back on Refreshments

The best thing about any coffee vending machine is that it can be a complete hot drink solution by itself. You are rarely limited to having to settle for simply coffee. The more sophisticated ones will give you hot water to brew tea or make yourself a hot bowl of soup. If you prefer hot chocolate or some kind of energy drink or health drink like Bovril or Bournvita, you don't have to deny yourself. Look up the features of the different machines. Try to buy one that requires the least maintenance without compromising on quality. Renting machines is becoming more and more popular because it is an affordable way to serve the beverages that are popular.

If you surf a little, you can probably find good bargains too. Jura has introduced many new models that suit any venue, home, shop, business or gathering place where coffee is served. Add to that, you can source cheap coffee machines on the net which might be refurbished but are still within the warranty period. If you are also looking to arrange the entire refreshment scene you can buy, rent or lease snacks vending machines which service your specific needs. The cost of the machines will vary with the size as well as the diversity of selection you desire. Leasing has the advantage that you get a new machine which you can make part payment to eventually own the machine. You will be able to obtain all the information that is needed to operate them very easily.

Ensuring fresh food is available round the clock is excellent human resource management for most companies since it frees up the time personnel would have required to source nutritive food while at work. Deep fill sandwich wedges, prepared salad bowls, pastries, yogurt, fruit slices and nuts are some of the healthier snack options you can offer your customers and personnel. This ensures that they are not limited to chips, chocolates and various kinds of confectionary. The cold food vending machines are temperature controlled ensuring that food is kept cool and always in perfect condition at the point of purchase.

Top Tips to Get More From Your Coffee Shops

Coffee shops provide a great service. If you run a great cafe then this isn't just somewhere for people to get coffee, it's somewhere for them to enjoy the entire 'culture' of coffee which means sitting and working on their computer, chatting and catching up with friends, networking with other people who work for themselves, or just finding somewhere warm to relax and recoup after a heavy day shopping.

In other words then, a lot of your custom will have nothing to do with people loving coffee - it will be down to them wanting somewhere to hang out or somewhere to sit and work or read. In short then, your coffee shop itself is almost as crucial to your business success as the actual coffee. Here are some ways you can get more from your venue and increase your success severalfold as a result.

Provide the Right Facilities

First and foremost you need to make sure that you provide all the services and facilities someone could want from a coffee shop. In today's world, that means at least having wifi and a power socket so that people can use their laptops and tablets.

Comfort

At the same time you should also make sure that your coffee shop is comfortable as it can be and that means having the best furniture but also tables for people to work on.

Note though of course that what is comfortable for one person won't necessarily be comfortable for someone else. In other words, you need to ensure that you are providing more places to sit and that these are varied for whatever purpose someone may have in mind. Separate your coffee shop into sections then - work spaces, communal areas, and single-person reading areas. This way you can provide a space that is conducive to whatever purpose someone had in mind and that means you won't be turning any potential buyers away at the door.

Outdoors

Another way you can maximise your business is to make sure that you have enough places for people to sit so that you don't lose custom because you've reached maximum capacity. Don't squeeze people in, but ensure that you make optimum use of your space.

One way to do this is by ensuring that you take advantage of the space outside your coffee shop. By keeping some tables and chairs here, you can increase your capacity, and at the same time make the most of the nice weather. Using an awning meanwhile you can also make sure that people have the option to sit under cover - meaning they can use the outdoor seating even if it's raining or if they're worried about getting sunburn.

Music

Having the right music is an important way to make the most of your coffee shop. Silence can create an awkward atmosphere ad negatively impact the experience that many people have, but on the other hand music that is too loud will make it impossible for people to sit and work or to concentrate when they're reading.

Coffee - A Divine Gift or Satan's Soup

It's almost five hundred and one years since mesmerizing effects of coffee were first brought to scientific and literary circles and then to ones of religious finally. Regardless of its legitimacy among these circles, there is obvious appreciation for its irresistible taste and aroma with inherent power stimulating effects.Since then, there has been an ever going debate whether to conform its use or not. Almost all of us are now scientifically mindful to its both healing and crumbling effects on mind and body; let's see what people our brethren say about coffee. Religiously caffeine is most controversial element of natural coffee ingredients and this is caffeine which infuses some kind of 'mystical and enigmatic' powers to a man.

Mormons and the Book of Wisdom:

In our contemporary times, Members of Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, commonly referred as Mormons do not follow Cappuccino and tea in their menu. The Book of Wisdom, revealed on James Smith and the one which Mormons follow, says, 'And again, hot drinks are not for body or the belly'.

'Hot Drinks' has been widely interpreted as 'warm drinks' or 'strong drinks'. Followed by their tauten belief in the book, Mormons consider 'coffee and tea' as hot drinks and thus avoid any kind of indulgence with them both. Mormons do not represent entire Christian religion. So, Christian all over the world not only drink coffee regularly but they do also love it. This is the reason why we have a lot of Cappuccino shops in every nook and corner of the planet.

Jews and Coffee Culture:

As discussed above, coffee belongs to renaissance when the whole Europe was rising like phoenix from ashes. It was Jews merchants who brought cofe to revered fathers and powerful lords. Having said, coffee is largely favorite drink in Jewish culture ever since they met it.

Jews follow kosher food menu that tells which foods and drinks are clean and consumable. The only controversy spouted was in early 1600 when two rabbis found Cappuccino with altogether different notions. In 1603, an Italian Rabbi Hezekiah da Silva was so much enchanted by coffee that he could not resist saying,' One cannot attain presence of mind without the aid of coffee. On the other hand, Rabbi Judah LeibNardin of London put Cappuccino in no kosher class, saying it to carry fat meat in it. Much academic discussions have now been conducted about coffee and rabbinic laws, and nothing religiously foul about coffee is found therein. In fact, like rabbis of 17th and 18th centuries, modern Jews do drink coffee for observing intense religious rituals. No wonder, coffee capsules have found much laud among them.

Myslim Sufis and Coffee Ecstasy:

Moslems were the first to find Cappuccino, process it and register its stimulating effects. There are many legendary tales found in their literature relating to coffee and its inviting enchantments. Though 'strong drinks' are also prohibited in Islam but they do not drag Cappuccino and tea into those 'strong drinks'.

Historians tell that in early 1600, Muslim scholars also started religious discourses regarding coffee and its religious legitimacy. Muslim Sufis of those times were excited about Cappuccino intake as it turned out to be a magical potion making them ready for self-purgation. But, now there has been nothing controversial about Cappuccino in their religion and Arabians are most addicted to their coffee cups.

Coffee For a Healthier Life

Coffee for a healthier Life

Coffee, a great drink appreciated by many people; and it is also avoided by others. Tea is considered its major competitor, it seems to offer a plenty of superior health benefits; a drink for the New Ones and it is for those who desire to get away the dissolution of the caffeinated and brown drink. The truth stands at that tea can simply be as useful as its preparation, which in a number of cases may have as a large amount of sugar as a can of soda. To be aware of the coffee drink, one must be obliged to realize the core worth of tea: that the brewed leaf is the only beneficial element. The whole thing else is profligacy.

To that, the bean of itself contains a great number of benefits to the body's health. But the coffee's culture is like that it contains a set of surplus trimmings. For instance, Espresso machines produce an extremely intense form of regular coffee. And after that it consumes the entire amounts of sugar. All along with cream, because of water sugar the benefits by drinking it can be declined, where it becomes into drinkable candy. But the entire of this remains unaffected from tea. The coffee bean is the significant part.

Caffeine can cause disorder on the body's nervous system, but it does not show synonymous with coffee drink. Special kinds of drinks (all are made differently) will increase various levels of caffeine's content. Serving size also comes into participate. To those responsive to caffeine, the clear option can be establish in decaffeinated drink. But such another could down the helpful affect of the drink. Vitamin B niacin is found in large quantities in it; and in current studies indicated that it has antioxidant-like effects on the human body by discharging free radicals. As a concern, these healthiest benefits only occur with a fair habit of drinking. Too much sugar and cream can demonstrate to be harmful, while taking of high quantity of coffee affects many enduring hazards. As it explained above that it provide the vitamin B niacin, it in turn restricts the human body from other kinds of vitamins. Brunette drinking contains those acids that have been connected to the stomach ulcers. A daily cup of Brunette did not impose any threat to the average person.

Slaking one's thirst is a common enough human need. When you set up a cold drink vending machines in London, you do more than ensure a constant flow of cash into your till. During a stressful day people want to be refreshed with cold drinks.

Some ideal locations are hotels, motels, bed-and-breakfasts, elementary, middle, high schools, colleges, universities, hospitals, military bases, fairs parks, and other attractions. In the early days of the soft drink vending machines in UK, they were peppered with only sodas and the products of the soft drink giants like Coca Cola, Pepsi and Britvic.

Nowadays vendors are looking at other options too to be able to cater to changing tastes. They are not afraid of experimenting with new launches, especially if these are healthy options like cold green teas. This is why fruit juices and smoothies are being increasingly offered from these machines. Some of the soda bottling companies provides the soft drink vending machine for free.

Popular Techniques For Roasting Coffee Beans

When roasting coffee, there are usually four main categories in which the roast falls. It may be dark, light, medium dark, or medium. The taste of the bean is also usually determined by the region where it originates from, like Java, Hawaiian Kona, Kenya, and the Blue Mountains of Jamaica. Unroasted coffee is usually green, and in order to roast it you need to make sure that you use a roasting machine. The most common types of roasting machines are hot air, and drum ones.

When the beans take in the heat, their colour changes from yellow to shades of brown; when further roasting takes place, oil comes out to the surface and the beans lose water and become larger. Then when more heating is carried out, the beans take on a darker colour. This is when the roasters check the temperature, and the smell and colour of the roast.

The roaster will usually listen to the cracking sounds of beans, and when they hear the first roast, they usually know that the light roast has been done. Second cracks will usually tell that the medium roast has been done and it is this that often tells the difference between light and dark roasts.

Light roasts usually have more of their original flavour than dark roasts since they have more acidity, and they do not have a roasted taste. Medium toasts on the other hand, are sweeter, and have a smoother taste. Full coffee roasts are usually spicier and have heavier bodies, and the taste and aroma are clearer. Double roasts contain a light body flavour, and intense taste, they are also smoky sweet. At times, the roasting is so intense that it can be a bit hard to tell the origin of the beans at all.

However, it is important to remember that when coffee beans are roasted, they tend to lose their flavours rather fast. Therefore, it is quite important that roasted coffee beans are stored in the right manner. In fact, if possible, the ground coffee needs to be stored in a cool, dark place that is free of any moisture at all. This is because light creates a chemical reaction that often makes the ground to go bad, and acquire a bitter taste. So, coffee should not be put in a fridge, and neither should it be exposed to any moisture. The storage area should also be dark, and the pantry, or a closed cabinet are usually the preferred areas to store the coffee.

Additionally, when going for coffee, it is important that you do not buy large quantities of it for home use. The reason for this is that once coffee is opened, it starts to lose its quality and freshness. Therefore, the longer the coffee is opened up, the more freshness is lost. So, if you are going to buy coffee, you need to make sure that you go for packages that are small, and will last for a short while. This is so that you can enjoy a fresh cup every time.

I'm a Writer Who Travels Here And There

It's the last day of the month today and I have to finish all my pending work by this evening. And at the same day I have to visit my brother's in London, since his wife is delivering her baby tonight. And in the weekend, I have to go meet some London clients as well. But the tormenting thing is I still haven't finished my writings that have to be finished by the end of this month.

Got the train early in the morning and I'm working even on the train as I'm running out of time. I used to travel on the first class query with facilities like reclining seats, more leg room, a reading light, power sockets, which are very helpful for me to continue my work while traveling. I love the food they serve on its way, especially their big mug of green coffee with lots of green coffee beans. The zest that I get from the coffee bean taste and also the lovely sceneries that I get to see en route, keep me energized throughout the whole journey and I get a huge enthusiasm to write more.

Got down from London. My brother Caleb was there to pick me up. He has a lot to tell me, he keeps telling about my sister-in-law and how he's planning to keep her and their baby happy, how he's going to build his house and how he's planning to decorate the baby's room, etc.

Went to see our sweet going-to-be mom at the hospital. She's welcoming everyone who comes to see her with a blissful smile. I couldn't stay that long there, I had to go meet one of my cousins who has a connection with one of my clients. So I said bye to Caleb and Lana, promising them that I'll be back as soon as possible.

My cousin asked me to meet me on the beach, she's one crazy girl. Then I had to turn everything reversed and shot to beach side. She was awaiting for me at the entrance, we both walked to a calm and quiet place to start our long cracked discussion after a long time.Sat on a bench in a corner with some chips and coke.

I went to meet my cousin talk about something else, and we have ended up by talking about her new love stories. How weird. Once we saw it's getting dark, we stood up to go to the hospital to see Lana.

Coffee Styles

There was a time when the answer to the question "how would you like your coffee" was either "black" or "white"! Of course, we don't order a "coffee" anymore, we order a cappuccino, a latte or a short black, among other options. So to make sure you are fluent in the language of ordering coffee, or if you after a new version of your daily espresso hit, here is a list of commonly available coffee styles in Australia and elsewhere.

So, how would you like your "black" coffee?....

Espresso: 30ml shot of coffee in a small cup. It is made by forcing pressurized, hot water through finely ground coffee beans. The "crema' on top of the shot is caused by air bubbles combining with the coffee soluble oils and gives flavour and aroma. A "good" crema indicates quality coffee that is well-pulled.

Short Black: 30ml shot of espresso in a small cup.Actually, a short black is an espresso. Short black is an Australian/NZ term.

Ristretto: A short shot of espresso, usually about 22ml, in a small cup.The ristretto is a bolder, fuller coffee than the short black with more body and less bitterness.

Long Black: 30ml shot of espresso poured over hot water in a medium to large cup.Pouring the shot over the hot water preserves the crema.

Americano: Like a long black, but the hot water is added to the espresso. An Americano usually has more hot water than a long black and is not as strong.

Lungo: 60ml shot.The lungo is stronger and shorter than a long black or an Americano.

Or your "white" coffee?....

Cappuccino: 30ml shot of espresso in a medium to large cup with 50% hot steamed milk and 50% milk froth, sprinkled with chocolate on top. The foam that tops a cappuccino acts as a natural insulator keeping the drink warmer longer.

Latte: 30ml shot of espresso (or double shot) in a medium cup or glass topped with hot steamed milk. "Latte" is a shortening of the Italian "caffe latte". Although don't order a "latte" in Italy as you will be served a glass of milk!

Flat White: 30ml shot of espresso (or double shot) in a medium to large cup topped with hot steamed milk. Flat white is an Australian/NZ term. It should differ from a latte in that it should be made with the "flatter" milk under the foam.

Piccolo: 30 ml of espresso in a small glass/cup with hot teamed milk.

Macchiato: 30 ml of espresso with a dollop of hot steamed milk.

Latte Macchiato: 15ml shot (ie half shot) of espresso poured over hot steamed milk in a medium to large cup. The espresso poured over the milk creates a layered drink with a macchia (spot) of espresso on the top.

Mocha Latte: 30ml of espresso and a heaped teaspoon of drinking chocolate in a medium to large cup, topped with hot steamed milk.

Coffee Machines to Rent

Coffee machines are more of a necessity today in offices. Coffee is the world's most popular beverage and it is the part and parcel of numerous people.

Needs may vary but there is no denying that coffee is extremely popular and it has become a must in office settings. This is the reason why coffee machines are important. You can't expect your employees to go the nearby cafe at least twice a day. That will waste a lot of time and it won't even be feasible.

This is why it is very important to ensure that the coffee machine is well taken care of. Remember that the machine is not rightfully yours. It is yours temporarily and as long as it is yours, you should make sure that it is maintained properly. That is completely your responsibility. Despite proper maintenance if something goes wrong, you can always call the rental company for help. A good company will understand that it was not your fault and not because of poor maintenance.

How to Make The Best Homemade Coffee

Most people would claim that the best coffee that they have ever had is at home. Well, this claim would give most cafes or restaurants a run for their money. However the key to make a piping hot cup of goodness, which is aromatic and at the same time soothes your soul, is something that you need to look out for. There are a number of elements that are involved in order for the brew to get the right taste. This includes tasting a variety of brands and at the same time mastering the art of making it. Do you want to learn how you can make a perfect cup of this beverage?

Find Your Favourite

In order to brew the perfect coffee you need to first identify a personal favourite. You can do this by selecting something form a local shop. The first thing you need to keep in mind is the fact that the beans are freshly roasted and they would never be older than a week. This gives a punch to the drink and makes it fresh. Next, you need to taste different blends that are available and zero in on what you like. After that you need to get it from the cafe since most of them have it on sale. Get the beans but make sure that you roast them at home, which would certainly add the freshness and zing to it. In this way, you will be saving a lot on the mix since it would have been more expensive if you had gotten the pre roasted one.

Getting it Right

Now that you have found the right coffee beans you have arrived at the next big step, which is roasting them. It is essential that you get it right, since this would have a major impact on the flavour that you will be able to derive. For the most part, it would take 8 minutes but you need to keep a close watch on it. This is because if you roast them for too long then they would tend to become hard, which could in turn block the grinder. Also, make a note that if you want to get a lighter colour, you need to roast them for a shorter span of time. Be careful while you engage in this process since the beans could pop out and hurt you. Additionally, you need to make sure that the beans don't overcook. Next, you need to allow them to cool in a stainless steel bowl.

Get a Good Coffee Maker

The next thing that you need to do in order to brew the perfect pot of coffee is a good maker. Try to go in for a machine that looks like the ones at the cafes. This is because you will require a certain level of steam and pressure in order to extract the oil from the coffee beans in the right way. Apart from that the sales person would be able to help you in this regard and direct you towards getting the right one.

Coffee (kaffe is the Danish term) is drink that we all love in our mornings. That is why i will also recommend you to read more about good coffee (God kaffe is the Danish term).

Giving Your Staff One Reason Less to leave Office

One of the most compelling reasons why office managers and owners of large companies prefer to install an office coffee machine is that it ensures that personnel don't have an excuse to leave and stay out of the office for extended periods. People need coffee, tea and other hot drinks for different reasons. It could be to ward off tiredness or drowsiness or even to ward off cold. Sometimes people want some kind of refreshment without actually needing a meal or chewable snacks. That is the time when an individual would want soup or a health drink.

The kind of coffee machine which is most appropriate for your office would be dependent on how many people need to be serviced, how often, whether the hot drinks etc. are free or whether the staff pay for them. The space available would dictate whether you need a floor standing model like the Milano or Refresh 1400 or a tabletop model like the Venetian or the Kenco FreshSeal which offers a great range of drinks, including Kenco Really Rich, PG Tips Tea, Suchard Hot Chocolate, Cappio Cappuccino and Carte Noire. In areas like East Anglia in Suffolk , Norfolk and Cambridgeshire and across the South East, in Essex you can benefit from the Kenco Local Business Service. So for sourcing the office coffee machine in Cambridgeshire it should not be so difficult for those who operate in and around Cambridgeshire.

This ensures that you can concentrate on running your business, whilst still providing your staff with a great selection of products, with none of the hassle. The Kenco Singles Brewer is stylish, very easy to maintain and requires minimal cleaning making it perfect for offices, meeting rooms and reception areas. Best of all, the single brewers avoid wastage and caters to different tastes and needs simultaneously. Look around for the kind of model that supports different cup sizes and check to see whether it has payment options in case you don't intend to offer the hot drinks on the house. A mid-point like token system can be an option where the company gives a number of tokens for a month and any person who uses them up can buy some more.
