Discover How To Save Money with SpotaJava Coffee
Posted by gourmet coffee snob on 21 Sep 2007 | Tagged as: SpotaJava Coffee, Coffee Tips, Gourmet Coffee Snob Sez
SpotaJava coffee is not expensive coffee…and it's not starbucks coffee either…no burnt beans or mega caffeine 
coffee…inexpensive coffee does comes to mind along with great tasting coffee.
Just how much money do you save by not buying starbucks coffee but by brewing your own coffee beans at home and filling your coffee mug from your counter top coffee pot.
I've been amazed by folks who bring in coffee from a Starbucks or convenience store every single day instead of just contributing to the home "coffee pot fund". I know office coffee may not stack up to the speciality store bought versions, but is it really worth the long term costs? Many folks drink the equivalent of a wide screen TV every year!
The most expensive cup of joe, in the minds of many coffee drinkers, is a $4 coffee at Starbucks. Perhaps a half-caf soy almond latte prepared by a favorite barista.
But for serious coffee connoisseurs, people who are looking for a world-class drink rather than a ‘gourmet’ cup, the top fare is made from the highest-quality beans in the world.
The beans come from very specific regions and are prized for their unique characteristics. Cultivated on small farms, they are coddled by farmers who care more about quality than quantity.
You wouldn’t dare add milk or sugar to coffee of this caliber–it would compete with the beans’ natural sweetness, and distinct flavors and aromas.
Such top-quality coffees are rare–and prices for them are accordingly high. Superior beans command retail prices of over $100 per pound in what the Specialty Coffee Association of America, a Long Beach, Calif.-based trade association, describes as a $11 billion-plus specialty coffee market.
We have searched the specialty coffee market for the priciest coffee in the world–not the most expensive cups of coffee, which can vary by a matter of cents–but the priciest specialty beans. Could this be a clue as to what drives people to spend a small fortune for…coffee? This calculator is designed to compare the cost of coffee with meals at home or in the office compared to coffee at specialty coffee shops. As you can see it doesn't work. What it's supposed to do is show you that spotajava gourmet coffee is pretty cheap coffee when you compare it to other coffee that you buy out on the trail. Specialty coffee beverages in Los Angeles are often almost as much as the meal. Often, coffee available in the office or at home is very reasonable by comparison. Enter the 2 approximate costs of a cup of home or office coffee and a cup of specialty coffee and the number of coffee beverages you drink each year. If you wanna, our defaults can be used conservatively. They are based on a typical coffee drinkers consumption each year. Our default number of coffee beverages from out on the trail is not only with meals, but just stopping for a cup as well. When you have made your entries, click on Calculate. It's still not gonna work, but you get the idea that buying spotajava coffee online is lightyears cheaper than buying coffee out. Starbucks coffee hates the truth. brought to you by SpotaJava Coffee

Defining Gourmet Coffee
Posted by gourmet coffee snob on 12 Sep 2007 | Tagged as: Coffee Tips
Masni Rizal Mansor asked:
For those who love coffee, a day without it just would not be a complete fruitful day. Coffee as we know it today is much different than when it was first discovered. These days there are so many varieties of gourmet coffee available that for those who are just beginning to enjoy coffee, maneuvering through the different types available can be a little intimidating.
Defining Gourmet Coffee
The movement to gourmet coffee is a relatively new concept. Gourmet coffee is usually only made from Arabica beans, which are usually the most flavorful variety of coffee bean. Generally, commercial pre-ground coffees that are the most widely available are composed of a mixture of Arabica beans, Robusta beans and low grade Brazilian beans. The Robusta and Brazilian beans make up the majority of pre-ground commercial coffee, and they usually add a smaller amount of Arabica beans for better flavor. Interestingly, the Robusta beans usually contain 30-40% more caffeine than the Arabica beans.
Commercial coffee is also usually not as fresh. Commercial coffee is pre-ground before it is packaged. After packaging it can take several weeks to actually make it to a grocery store. Usually, the longer pre-ground commercial coffee sits on a shelf waiting to be purchased, the staler and bitter it will become. Generally, the biggest advantage of commercial coffee is that it is cheap compared to some types of gourmet coffee.
Usually, gourmet coffee is roasted at the plant and makes it into the consumer’s hands within a week. You can buy pre-ground gourmet coffee, but the preferred way to buy it is while it is still in its bean form. The beans can usually be ground at the store you buy them from.
Even though there are different varieties of commercial coffee available, the only way to find true variety is with gourmet coffee. Not only can you decide on where the beans were grown (places such as Sumatra and Kona) but also how it has been roasted (Light, Italian, French). There are two major selling points when it comes to gourmet coffee: flavor and freshness.
If you haven’t ventured into the world of gourmet coffee, give it a try. You can find small bags so that if you decide you don’t like that particular variety, you don’t have a 10 pound can in your kitchen still full of coffee. So give gourmet coffee a try, especially if you are already a big coffee fan.
Cold Brew Coffee Heats uP
Posted by gourmet coffee snob on 10 Sep 2007 | Tagged as: Coffee Tips
What if the gourmet coffee snob told you that you can make a coffee shop coffee - served steaming hot or iced cold, and in the comfort of your home - for much less than expensive signature coffee drinks…
and as important as those fresh roasted beans are to your cup of coffee, it's what you do with em that counts the most…however…let's not forget to start with the best spotajava gourmet coffee beans…
and if your really want the bomb coffee I highly recommend premium connoisseur peaberry coffee beans…but that's just me…I like great tasting coffee so why not use only the very best coffee beans…
On the road to coffee nirvana, I've discovered the cold-process coffeemaker that
produces an exquisite coffee concentrate using an exclusive cold drip method to extract only the best parts of the coffee bean.
People who drink cold brewed coffee swear by it. Some go so far as to declare it the ultimate coffeemaker…"(It produces) the perfect cup of coffee."
Even if your buds can't tell the difference between a fine cup of gourmet java and a plastic foam mug of overheated slag from a convenience store, the convenience ofcold-processed coffee is easy to like.
It`s just as quick to make in the morning as freeze-dried instant coffee, and you can control the strength of each cup by using more or less concentrate.
Heating the concentrate itself without adding hot water gives you a drink that resembles espresso. Making cold coffee drinks is a no brainer, and it even works well for baking recipes that call for coffee.
The cold-process coffeemaker proves the secret that high-priced gourmet bean sellers don't want you to know — good coffee is mostly in the preparation. Overheat your
coffee, let the beans go stale, add too much or too little of the grinds or let it sit on a warmer all day, and even the most expensive beans grown inside the cone of a volcano and hand-picked by virgins will taste like pond water.
Cold-Process Coffee instructions may vary, depending on your brand of cold-process coffeemaker. But in general, add ground coffee to the container and fill with cold water, as directed.
Let the mixture "cold brew" undisturbed for 12 hours.
Coffee beans contain several compounds that are extracted during the hot brewing process. Some of those compounds, including the oils and fatty acids that cause the slick on your coffee are soluble at a high temperature. The method most of us use at home, including the French press and virtually all steam methods, scalds the beans, which brings out those acids and oils.
Up to 67 per cent of these compounds, including the ketons, esters and amids that sometimes give hot-brewed coffee a bitter under taste and cause some people to experience a burning sensation in the digestive tract, could be eliminated by cold-steeping the coffee grounds for several hours to produce a rich concentrate.
The cold-process coffeemaker is almost ridiculously simple. It consists of a plastic brewing container with a plug and filter at the bottom, and a glass carafe. Ground coffee and two liters of cold water go into the top and are allowed to steep for eight to twelve hours. Remove the stopper and let concentrate flow into the glass carafe. Refrigerate. To serve, add one part concentrate to three parts boiling water (or add cold water and microwave). For iced coffee, serve over ice.
The concentrate must be refrigerated and will keep for about three weeks. It can also be frozen (in ice cube containers) for several months. It's fabulous. Once you try it, you won't go back to the hot water method, the gourmet coffee snob guarantees it.

There is no single correct or best way to brew a cup of coffee. 
You are the best judge of what best brewing method is most likely to brew uP the kind of coffee most thrilling to your taste buds.
Grind up some premium connoisseur peaberry coffee or any other smooth tasting spotajava coffee beans and then soak your coffee grounds in a small of cold water for 15 minutes.
Now strain out the grounds so they don't reach your coffee mug. You can store the resulting coffee and mix with hot water as needed. Your cold water coffee makes a great tasting low-acid, light bodied cup of coffee.
This great coffee tip works with decaf coffee beans too.
