A coffee geek tells all
Food & Wine Magazine did a nice article on the basics of coffee. The competitive barista author has some great incite. We know you'll enjoy this. We do disagree on his dislike for medium to dark roasted coffee. We appreciate his point that a darker roast does compromise the bean's character as derived from the soil it grew from. Booskerdoo and company greatly appreciates a medium and dark roasted bean's character as derived from the heat, baby! Bread is good, so is toast. But various points of view is what humanity is all about... well, that and Seinfeld reruns.
This Little Piggy Loved Booskerdoo (thanks!)
This is probably the best written article on us yet, and we've had a lot of quality articles. I love this woman's tone:

All serve coffee to everyone who walks in, but they aren’t coffee shops. The menu items can be good in quality, but almost always low in price.
Every type of person can be found in a diner: a trauma surgeon coming off of a grueling shift; a pack of hard studying...
So... what exactly is a micro coffee roaster?
What is a microroaster?
….and why is the product better than a regular (or macro) roaster? It isn’t, necessarily. A quality microroaster confers an “artisianal” or gourmet approach, meaning it pays attention to every detail. Our craft is based on this attitude and technique. This style is also found in a growing community of home-roasters
Roast Magazine, a bi-monthly technical trade magazine dedicated to the success and growth of the specialty coffee industry, declares its “Roaster of the Year” in the micro category, which is defined as roasting fewer than 100,000 pounds of coffee annually.
