Welcome back to CoffeeNate.com for my holiday coffee gift ideas special! With all of the hustle and bustle, wouldn’t you rather have the gifts automatically shipped to your door for cheaper than going out into the crowds? I know that is what I prefer, and each year I do the vast majority of my shopping online. To help you out, I’ve come up with a few recommendations for anyone on your list that likes, loves, or otherwise appreciates coffee on some level. You should also know that I own and love all of the gifts that I am recommending! These are also great ideas for that really difficult person to buy for, you know the one that already has everything and doesn’t spare themselves from anything. These are somewhat unique gifts for the ordinary coffee drinker. You can browse the gifts I’m talking about in the above widget, but I’ll list each one for you below. I wanted to keep the prices low, while keeping the quality of the merchandise high. Most items are below $50 and will bring a smile to their faces and a warmth to their bellies

Howdy do my fellow coffee addicts? This week I have two episodes back to back. I’ll be posting another video this weekend This is a video of my presentation at IgniteSault. An ignite talk is where presenters give a 5 minute talk about a passion of theirs. During this 5 minutes you have 20 slides that supposedly automatically change at 15 second intervals, so there is a lot of timing involved. Well, I said ’supposedly’ because, as Murphy’s Law, indicates whatever can go wrong will go wrong, and my slides advanced 2 at a time and then they were being manually adjusted by the presenter dude. I programmed it correctly, it just got corrupted somehow when they converted to the other machine…oh well. No biggie, just threw me off a bit and I missed some points.
This talk was “The 3 Keys” as I’ve spoken about before here. There are three major factors that have such a significant influence on your coffee flavor that if you get one wrong, you get it ALL wrong! I’ll talk about these individually on future episodes, but here is the ‘Reader’s Digest version’. The three keys are… Read More→

>>Breville Conical Burr Grinder<<
Hello, and welcome back to CoffeeNate.com, I’m so glad you have joined me! Today, I did a tasting and review of Dean & Deluca’s Dark Roast House Blend . This blend is a complex mix of four origin varieties. The dark roasting process does diminish the majority of the distinctive quality of the beans, but there is a detectable complexity. Heavy bittersweet chocolate, smoke, and toffee notes, followed by a long and pronounced cocoa finish. The acidity is bright, and it is full bodied coffee, meaning a heavy mouth feel. Dean & Deluca offers a wide array of quality culinary products, and their coffees and teas are just the start. The price point is reasonable at $15 per pound, but the shipping is a bit high at $6.50 for this purchase. If you buy 2 bags, then shipping is $8.50 and brings the per pound price down to $19.25. Many companies ship in 12 oz packages, so there is the advantage of receiving %25 more than the common weight. I was pleasantly surprised to find that Dean & Deluca coffee is Fair Trade and certified organic! Their website and product information made no note of either, but this product carries the certification seals for FT and USDA organic.
