A big thanks to Slavko for treating Jason and I too a couple of bags of coffee from Thor in Toronto. It seems fitting that our friend we made from social media would bestow such a lovely present on us. It just goes to show you how the big world of coffee is growing into [...]
Anyone who has ever savoured a shot of espresso and marveled at its glorious crown of crema appreciates the artful science inherent in its preparation. Such aficionados will either be delighted or wary when they encounter Presso, an espresso machine designed to be both eco-friendly and efficient sans electricity. Just pour boiling water into Presso, [...]
Many years back All-Clad had a run at making pressos for Patrick Hunt in the US market. What looked like the perfect fit at the time ended and the business relationship was terminated. What resulted was a boon for the serious coffee snobs who were the early adopters giving this great coffee making invention a go [...]

From our friend Jake Garrett in Vancouver: When I was a kid I would always put out all the utensils on the table even if we weren’t using spoons with that meal because otherwise I would feel bad for them. I thought this was something I was over, but evidently not, as I have begun [...]

Or, if you’re like me, not necessarily what time it is right now, but what time it could be if you finally programmed the thing to stop flashing “12:00”. That’s because there is no [...]
