Decaffeinated Coffee

Decaffeinated Coffee
Like most Americans, I appreciate a good cup of coffee in the morning. Actually, I appreciate a good cup of coffee at any time of the day and sometimes I find myself craving the taste in the evening after dinner as well. It depends on how your body reacts to caffeine that will determine whether you should drink it at night or if it will keep you up until all hours, staring at the clock and unable to fall asleep. I fall into the second group, because I am very sensitive to caffeine, and even a caffeinated soda can keep me up for hours past my bedtime if I drink it in the evening. This is why I always keep decaffeinated coffee in my house. If there is ever an after dinner coffee emergency, I can make myself a pot of coffee without worrying about being up all night.

Dunkin Donuts is my backup for when I am out of decaffeinated coffee and I really need a cup of coffee in the evening. Their decaffeinated coffee tastes exactly like their regular coffee, except that it is not loaded with caffeine and will do nothing to excite my nervous system. I’ve even ventured into decaf iced coffee when it is too hot to drink regular coffee and I want something good to drink at night.

Caffeine is a naturally occurring molecule in coffee beans and I’m not really sure about what the process for removing it entails. I imagine huge sieve-like contraptions set up with filters that will grab the caffeine so that it is removed from the liquid. I know that this is unlikely since you can buy the beans and grinds whole, so it must be a process that happens to the whole coffee bean and not just the liquid. But whatever the case, it is the perfect solution for someone like me who really enjoys the flavor of coffee but can’t always drink the fully caffeinated variety.

The taste of regular coffee and decaffeinated coffee is so similar that I sometimes worry when I go to a coffee shop and ask for a decaf, that they will give me regular by mistake. By having a supply of my own decaffeinated coffee at home, I can eliminate this potential for human error that will destroy my sleep at night. I also worry sometimes that when I need a regular coffee in the morning to wake up that the barista at Starbucks will mistakenly give me decaf, and then I’ve spent a whole four dollars on something that will wake me up about as effectively as a glass of water. Whatever the case, I love coffee.

Why not ground coffee nutrition label?

I know it has little nutritional value, but it should not be label as all other foods? I'm curious to know if there is sugar in flavored coffees.

Coffee does not fall the list of items that the FDA requires a label nutritional … nor fruit and vegetables or most shellfish, seafood and fish! labeling food is required for most prepared foods such as bread, cereals, canned and frozen foods, snacks, desserts, drinks, just about everything that comes in a box or a bag or can that is not only itself item … as coffee beans or ground coffee … even though they are flavored (usually by the use of excerpts that have no nutritional value … In other words, flavored coffees can taste sweet but they are reinforced by the oil on the bean and / or patterns … not by the sugar).

Antique Coffee Grinder
There is nothing more appealing to a coffee lover than a freshly ground beans. The aroma alone can make you crave a cup of java. Somehow, the appeal is not quite so strong when the beans are pre-ground and electric grinders are just too loud and they can also heat the coffee beans too much. A good alternative is an antique coffee grinder.

An antique coffee grinder will not only create the ideal coarseness and aroma it will grind the beans without over heating them as well. These old mills are also very attractive and can suit just about any kitchen décor. Even modern kitchens fair well with an antique coffee grinder gracing its countertop.

antique-coffee-grinders.jpg

One antique coffee grinder that will work well in even the most streamlined modern design was constructed in the 1920’s. During this decade many people were attracted to the Art Deco movement. The antique coffee grinder from this era has a sleek design with clean lines running through the mill. This model may not be as hard to find as you think. Most of the mills were created in the stylish art deco trend.

Many people prefer a traditional model and there are several styles from which to choose. You can find an antique coffee grinder that sets on a countertop or you can find one that mounts on the wall. Either way, you are sure to add charm to your kitchen décor while still bringing a utilitarian device into your workspace as well.

I love the antique coffee grinder that sits on the countertop because of its lovely design. These models typically have a handle for grinding the beans on top and a little drawer to collect the coffee grinds at the bottom. The simple design is quite attractive.

These coffee mills are usually constructed out of wood and the wood is typically left unpainted. You will also notice the fine detail in the design on the grinding handle as well. The handles were commonly constructed out of cast iron which is an attractive feature for any kitchen that has a traditional décor.

The Parker Nation coffee mill that was made in Connecticut around 1905 epitomizes the traditional coffee grinders during the turn of the 20th century. This mill has a bronze finish on the top and is in wonderful shape.

As much as I love that model, I tend to favor a mysterious antique coffee grinder that may be German or French. This grinder mounts on the wall and has a porcelain face with a scene of a man and a woman praying in a field. This porcelain antique coffee grinder is a rare find that may have to stay in the dealer’s store until I can find more information.

No matter what design attracts you; consider an antique coffee grinder for your kitchen. Even if you never use the device you will still have a magnificent conversation piece for your home.

Burr Coffee Grinder

Burr Coffee Grinder
i’m one of those people who simply can’t function in the morning until I’ve had at least one cup of coffee. Because of this, it’s absolutely essential that I be able to brew my own java at home. But I can’t stomach any of the instant varieties out there, and would much prefer to enjoy some of the exotic blends that the gourmet shops are famous for. Everyone knows that in order to get the most flavor and richness out of the beans, it’s best to grind them up on your own — the closer to brewing time, the better. That’s why I’m glad I have a Burr Coffee Grinder at home.

A Burr Coffee Grinder is superior to the bladed kind in a number of important ways. For one thing, a burr coffee grinder has the ability to produce a variety of grinds, from coarse to very fine. This is ideal for me because it gives me greater flexibility in my brewing method. If I want to use a percolator, I leave the setting at coarse. For a drip machine, I change it to a medium grind. Plus, I can easily indulge in a cup of espresso every now and again without having to go to any extra effort. I simply set my Burr Coffee Grinder to the finest setting and leave it at that.

Another convenient feature of my Burr Coffee Grinder is the way that it can grind as little or as much as I need. If I’m just going to have one or two cups of joe before heading out to work, then I grind up a couple of tablespoons and I’m set. If I’m going to be up all night working on a project or if I’m having a bunch of people over, then I grind up a whole lot more.

Finally, a Burr Coffee Grinder allows me to have the freshest, most flavorful brew possible. A Burr Coffee Grinder produces less friction when grinding than a blade machine would. As a result, it protects the richness of the beans and I can definitely taste the difference in each and every cup.

If you don’t own a Burr Coffee Grinder, you’re really missing out on a lot! These amazing appliances are surprisingly affordable, so there’s no reason you should suffer with sub par brews any longer. Check out a couple of different models today and you could soon be enjoying the unequalled taste of gourmet coffee in the comfort of your own home with your Burr Coffee Grinder.

coffee pots 10 cup
Is drinking a pot of coffee (10 cups) per day unhealthy?

I'm home all day, I have nothing better to do. (I does not add sugar / cream or anything to it jsyk)

Yes, it is bad for you. It will exhaust your adrenal glands and cause your body to be in a constant state of stress generating a lot of cortisol. When you do this, you also reduce your steroid hormones and what are the sex hormones. It will greatly affect your libido and your sex life. Not a good solution on one count. Since the adrenal gland is part of the axis pituitary, it will negatively affect other organs. The thyroid, adrenals, pituitary and ovaries are all part of this axis. They work together as a team and when it becomes low, it negatively affects everyone. Good luck to you

Bunn Automatic Coffee Makers

Coffee is a very important part of our lives. We drink at least two pots at home each day and on weekends we drink even more. I like a full bodied dark roasted coffee with just a few drops of half and half. I do not like the powdered creamers and I am not very fond of the flavored coffees. We have tried many different coffee makers through out the years. We have found that our favorite product is the Bunn Automatic Coffee Makers.

When I first started out in social work I worked with police officers investigating child abuse. I was on call and so would be working some strange and long hours. The sheriff’s department and the police station always had hot coffee available that tasted freshly brewed. One day when I was in their break room, the detective that I was working with was making a pot of coffee. I was amazed that as soon as he poured water into the maker coffee started coming through into the pot below. He told me it was a Bunn Automatic Coffee Makers and that it made a pot of coffee in less than two minutes. This works because there is a reservoir of water heating in the back of the Bunn Automatic Coffee Makers. When the cold water is poured in the hot water flows over the coffee grounds for fast coffee. The cold water then heats very quickly in the reservoir so that another pot of coffee can be made within minutes.

I told my husband about the fast coffee maker and we agreed that we would look for one. The police station had a commercial coffee maker, but I was told that you can buy residential models. We found a residential Bunn Automatic Coffee Makers at a local discount store. The coffee maker cost a bit more than the other machines, however it did have a full year warranty. We decided to buy it and try it out. That was seventeen years ago and we would never buy another kind of coffee maker. We have bought three of the Bunn Automatic Coffee Makers over the years. I love that we can have fresh brewed coffee available in minutes. It is great for entertaining because you can keep making pot after pot so that there is always fresh hot coffee instead of having a large coffee pot sitting out with the coffee getting bitter as the evening goes on. With the Bunn Automatic Coffee Makers you can make four to twelve cups of coffee within two minutes. That is the perfect product for our household.
