Well, it’s that time again. Time for me to go undercover and investigate what I consider outrageous claims made by Starbucks® concerning their new instant coffee, VIA™. They released the line of instant coffees, which are being promoted as being AS GOOD as regular brewed coffee. They claim that their instant coffee is different because it contains ‘micro-ground’ coffee. Um, ground coffee does not dissolve in water, no matter how ‘micro’ it may be.

Ahhh, it’s good to be back! Wow, it’s been over a month since I’ve published a video, and I was really feeling it.

I purchased this exact mug myself a month ago, and I must say that I am impressed. It’s is a very unique design that offers great coffee brewing capabilities, even on the run! Just throw a scoop of coffee in and add water that is 30 seconds removed from boiling. Give it a stir for a few seconds, put the lid on and [Read more…]

I have always thought that my favorite non-espresso brewing method was a toss-up between the French Press and the AeroPress…until now! A couple of weeks ago I ordered a Bodum Santos stove-top coffee maker to see what all of the hub-bub is about with this siphon pot coffee brewing, and I’m glad that I did!
