Ever consider the origins of that coffee you just made with the KitchenAid burr grinder There are many species of coffee plants, each of which produces a different type of coffee bean. Coffea Arabica is the most common variety because it makes up at least 75 percent of the world’s coffee trade. Another type of coffee bean is the Robusta Coffee, going by the scientific name Coffea Canephora. Robusta is cheaper, and less refined as well, and it its percentage of the coffee trade is only about 20 per cent. These two varieties of coffee are further sub divided according to location, and then broken down again by the type of roast.
Considered superior to all other types of coffee beans is the coffee that is brewed from the Coffea Arabica. A plant that does best in high altitudes yet warm temps, and though it is quite expensive to transport and harvest the beans, the sweet, aromatic coffee is produces …

Featuring one of the most compact designs and user-friendly controls on the market today the Impressa C9 makes cafe quality cappuccinos and lattes at the touch of a button.

Ah ! the full taste of mocha coffee. Mocha coffee was around in my childhood and I can recall viewing the long thin bottle in my mother’s store cupboard with the words Moccha Coffee on it along with a turbaned gentleman image on the label. In our day our best connoisseurs selection of authentic Mocha coffee arrives from Yemen and its world extensive reputation maintains its small firm coffee bean in huge demand. They say that is the climate which is tough and parched gives the bean its exclusive tasting characteristic but who really knows what causes have come about to give us the authentic Moccha coffee tasting pleasure we can have so freely today.

hamilton beach brew station 12 cup
The Hamilton Beach Brew Station 12 Cup Coffee Maker is unique amongst coffee makers.

A great idea it is, but Hamilton Beach needs to engineer this product as it failed ten days after we purchased one. Please continue reading for all the details.
Our Braun coffee maker served us well for over six years. Thousands of coffee potfuls later, this failed to function 1 early morning and we understood the time had come to shop for a new one. As we strolled the aisles of our local BJ’s we realized that Braun was not a brand that they carried. Nevertheless our attention was drawn to a unique looking product, the Hamilton Beach Brew Station 12 Cup Coffee Maker, and we soon carried it off and brought it …
