It seems implausible, and "Brave New World" author Aldous Huxley apparently agrees. There are two new articles over on INeedCoffee for July 2009. Decaf Coffee Methods by Stefanie Mason Spencer Can decaf taste just as good as regular coffee? Is it processed with chemicals? Can it be decaffeinated without chemicals? Is there a coffee plant that does not contain caffeine at all? After it is decaffeinated does it still contain [...] The Hamilton Beach Cool Touch Tea Kettle Review Over on INeedCoffee, I posted Avoiding Plastic – 3 Stainless Steel Electric Kettle Options. In the article, I decided to trade in my plastic electric kettle for a stainless steel one. I wanted an electric tea kettle that had no exposed plastic parts and ended up purchasing the Hamilton Beach 40898 Cool Touch Tea Kettle.

The Washington Post’s Click & Clack car care column receives an idea for some comic relief on the highway: I was thinking about affixing a coffee mug onto the roof right above the driver’s seat, as if I forgot my morning coffee. I think [...] Over Memorial Day weekend, I drank a silly amount of espresso in Vancouver and reported on my Vancouver Espresso Vacation. What a vacation. Vancouver delivered. It is a first class coffee city and I’m honored to have them as my neighbor to the north. I just finished reading a new post from Vancouver’s CleanHotDry called Emerald City Coffee [...] Is Starbucks Deliberately Fooling Seattle Tourists? Besides seeing the Space Needle, one of the stops most tourists make when visiting Seattle is visiting Pike Place Market. Every coffee drinker knows this where the first Starbucks opened back in 1971. I visit the Pike Place Market frequently and I began noticing an issue in recent months. In July of 2008, Starbucks announced they [...] Badgett's Coffee eJournal is at AboutCoffee.net. Fitness articles can be found on DeepFitness.com. |
