Customer Reviews
interesting/informative
a great podcast for expanding knowledge of the coffee world without ostracizing the common coffee drinker by having to much coffee industry "groupie" talk. it's about the quality of the coffee!!
Say 'NO' to bad coffee!
I'm a coffee newbie and still found Mark Prince's podcast to be informative. I've found out that most lattes at Starbucks really have improperly made espresso shots and badly foamed milk. Ever since I started to listen to this podcast, I bought a Bialetti Moka Pot and a Melitta Perfect Brew. I discovered a nice cafe in my area which serves microroasted coffee and makes wonderful espresso. Now Starbucks and other chain store lattes and espresso machiattos taste like sour and soapy milk! Please listen to this podcast to graduate from instant coffee!
curse you!
I've now dropped $100-ish on a burr grinder (low-end, but it's better than the blade grinder I had) and another $80-ish on an espresso machine (ditto, and the stove top pot wasn't cutting it anymore). I buy fresh coffee from a local roaster. I stopped drinking lattes after 10am. I wait eagerly for the next episode of the CoffeeGeek Podcast. Augh!!!!!
