Coffee Lovers Radio - Make And Drink Better Coffee

With a summer of hot hot days, we find ourselves frequently enjoying a nice refreshing cold coffee. Yet there are multiple ways to make cold coffee, and all of them imperfect. Or are they? On this show we talk about the classic cold brew, and how Jesse makes it en masse for his customers. We also get into other classic ways of making and enjoying iced coffee. Finally, we welcome Ryan McDonnell who is with IceColdNow, and we take a quick look at their new Coldwave Coffee Chiller. Instead of brewing cold, or brewing on to ice, you brew coffee regularly and then flash chill it in this simply designed product.

In this joint Coffee Lovers TV / Radio episode, Jesse and Joseph take a closer look at the water you use to brew your coffee. Does it really matter? Can you brew with tap water?

This episode was a little bit of a blunder - we recorded this prior to SCA's Global Coffee Expo and then the intent was to publish before the show came to town. Well, The Global Coffee Expo has come and gone - April 20-23rd. It was fantastic and we will be talking about that in future episodes.  But for now, you get to hear us talk about the show that's coming but which has already transpired. Still, the things we paint in this show will inform the next, and I think it's entertaining. Plus, we are trying out a new show format...see if you can spot what we are doing over the next few episodes.

After a brief rant foray we jumped into this episode on different ways of describing and preparing espresso. What is the standard for espresso? What is doppio? What is ristretto? What are all the cafes actually doing? It's a strange world of juggling the language people are somewhat familiar with and the actual thing you get when you order coffee. We go in on this a little bit and ask for your thoughts as well. Also! Get a Coffee Lovers Beanie - the first 20 people who order a Beanie and post a selfie with it will get a free bag of coffee. https://www.coffeeloversmag.com/beanie Hosts: Joseph Robertson - Coffee Lovers Magazine - http://www.coffeeloversmag.com Jesse Nelson - Conduit Coffee - http://www.conduitcoffee.com This is a public episode.

In this show, Jesse and I tackle the question 'is a single origin coffee better than a blend?' With the surge in 'single origin' popularity, there's this impression with many that blends are inferior. We want to help you understand that there's a place in your mug for both, and both can bring fantastic experiences. Oh, this show is also the debut of Coffee Lovers Radio Opera.... maybe?
