ALL PRO BEVERAGE Introduces A Better Answer to Coffee Pod Machines

Paramount, California (Vocus/PRWEB) December 02, 2010

All Pro Beverage introduces a better answer to the demand for single-serve coffee makers. The Espresso Etc coffee machine grinds the beans fresh, brews one cup at a time, and produces many gourmet flavors at the mere push of a button. Plus, these machines are environmentally friendly and even clean themselves.

Because a coffee maker is the most popular appliance purchased for office coffee services, most companies spend considerable time to choose the best, most cost-effective and environmentally responsible machine for their break areas. The idea of brewing a single cup of coffee at a time is especially appealing because there is no coffee sitting around in pots getting old, the coffee is brewed fresh per cup, resulting in little wasted coffee. Just like at Starbucks, pods offer many flavors, but no one has to leave the office, and the price is certainly better.

The Truth About Pod Coffee Makers:

  • Is the coffee really fresh? No. True, the containers are sealed, but there is no way of knowing how long ago the coffee was roasted, ground and put inside the pod. The only way to have really fresh coffee is to grind it right before brewing.
  • Is there really little waste? No. The pods need to be disposed of and create a lot of trash. The pods are plastic, which is not a green or environmentally friendly product. These pods will spend hundreds of years in landfills.
  • Are pods saving your company money? No. The pods are expensive, especially compared to regular brewed coffee. Often, the pods find their way into the purses and pockets of people who own similar machines at home. The thinking of otherwise honest people may be that it's not really stealing, if it's just one little pod. It may be considered the same as filling up a cup to drink on the ride home: drink it now or later, what's the difference? But these add up over time and create added expense, anywhere from 50 cents to $1.00 each pod.

For a limited time, All Pro Beverage is offering to place an Espresso Etc single-serve coffee maker inside qualifying businesses for free. If a company has 35 or more employees, All Pro Beverage Service will set up an Espresso Etc super automatic, single serve coffee machine inside the company's break or lunch room for a no-hassle, no-obligation FREE TRIAL. The company's employees and visitors will be able to experience the convenience and economy of pod-free specialty coffee, the freshness of espresso beans ground per cup at the mere push of a button, and the flavor of specialty coffee beverages are just like Starbucks – without the expense, waste, or hassle of pod coffee machines. Flavors include: Espresso, Americano Cafe Latte, French Vanilla, Chai Latte, Hot Cocoa and more.

Simplified Eco-friendly Coffee and Tea Brewing Tools Protect Environment and Prevent Dental Stains

Miami, FL (PRWEB) February 21, 2008 -

Over 400 billion cups of coffee and tea are consumed each year, resulting in more than 7.6 million tons of ground coffee beans and tea ending up in landfills*. Wisdom Wands, creator of award-winning innovative coffee and tea accessories, provides eco-friendly alternatives to reducing the amount of coffee and tea wasted by brewing a personalized one cup with its award-winning Java Wand and Health Tea Wand.

The Java Wand is a portable, miniature French press filter attached to the signature, handcrafted, durable glass straw. It fresh brews and filters ground coffee right in the cup eliminating coffee makers and filters. The Health Tea Wand is a portable glass strainer attached to the signature, handcrafted, durable glass straw. It fresh-steeps and filters tea leaves, herbs and infusions in the cup.

As new information reveals toxicity from drinking from plastic and a heightened awareness of disposable paper waste, the products gain consumer attention. The Java Wand and Health Tea Wand are not only environmentally responsible alternatives to brewing that single cup of tea and coffee, but Wisdom Wands has focused on eliminating toxins that affect drinkers' health, and most importantly the future sustainability of the Earth's resources, said Nancy Raimondo, president of Wisdom Wands.

Made of completely recyclable, durable, hand blown glass, the Java Wand and Health Tea Wand eliminate the need for coffee makers, tea pots, filters and the electricity to run them; reduce the amount of coffee or tea required and result in less coffee or tea being wasted after brewing a full pot for just one cup.

The Wands not only help save natural resources from wasteful use of coffee, tea and materials, but protect the Earth's environment from toxins created by the waste in landfills and electricity use, said Raimondo. The Wands also save money by using less coffee or tea, and not requiring coffee makers, filters or wasting electricity. Coffee and tea drinkers will be astounded at the hundreds of dollars they will save each year by using the Wands.

Coffee and tea drinkers also avoid unpleasant dental stains and maintain white teeth by sipping their coffee through the Java Wand. The Academy of General Dentistry (AGD) recommends drinking coffee, tea or soda through a straw to prevent discoloration of teeth. The Wand is a healthy alternative to drinking through toxic plastic straws or out of Styrofoam cups which when filled with hot fluids release toxins that compromise a drinker's health.

The Java Wand and Health Tea Wand turn the one-cup dilemma into a one-cup on demand by easily brewing and filtering coffee, tea, and herbal infusions directly in a cup in as little as five seconds.

Most Americans dream of creating the next new product that becomes the 'rage' – a product that everyone responds to with, 'Why didn't I think of that?', said Andres Ranz, Chief Executive Officer of Wisdom Wands. Both Nancy and myself are convinced our products are more timely than ever as Americans' consumption of coffee and tea are up to 7.4 billion this year.

This is a coffee-friendly world with shops at every corner, explains Nancy who believes that coffee drinkers are ready for the next level of single serve, gourmet brewing. With our innovation coffee drinkers can personalize their own drinks. With the Health Tea Wand loose tea drinkers are now free to enjoy loose tea and infusions without messy tea balls outside the home. Portability gives consumers the option to enjoy personalized drinks anywhere: the office, plane, train, and even camping and more.

The Health Tea Wand was chosen as a Top 10 Selection by The Gourmet Retailer magazine and was The Las Vegas Sun's first choice for innovative products at the 2006 World Tea Expo. The Java Wand and Health Tea Wand have been featured in Dental Products Report and Modern Hygienist and are highly recommended by Dentists for their patients for the prevention of teeth stains.

The Java Wand and Health Tea Wand are dishwasher safe, come in their own carrying case with a special compartment to transport coffee and tea and retail for $19.95. They are available at http://www.Wisdomwands.com

Wisdom Wands will be exhibiting at the International Home & Housewares Show (Booth # S3374) on March 16-18, 2008 at McCormick Place in Chicago, Illinois.

It Takes More than Just the Right Beans and Equipment to Brew the Best Coffee

Elmsford, New York (PRWEB) September 08, 2011

Williams-Sonoma now offers Full Circle coffee and espresso cleaning products to customers at their retail and e-commerce locations nationwide. The line of environmentally conscious Full Circle products was developed by Urnex Brands, respected cleaning experts in the commercial specialty coffee market since 1936.

According to the National Coffee Associations 2011 report, National Coffee Drinking Trends, at home consumption of coffee is up. Over 50% of all adults drink coffee and, of those, 85% report they prepared coffee at home.

Many of these devoted coffee aficionados own top-of-the-line coffee and espresso makers, including models from Technivorm Moccamaster, Miele, Nespresso, Cuisnart and Breville, purchased from well-respected retailers such as Williams-Sonoma. They buy gourmet beans, which they grind themselves, and take pride in knowing how to brew a perfect cup of coffee or espresso. But, these same well-informed coffee lovers may be unpleasantly surprised to learn that coffee maker reservoirs ranked as the fifth germiest item in the home today (May 2011 NSF International study, Germiest Places in the Home).

Too many people overlook their coffee machine during their cleaning regime or use the wrong products, says Kofi Amoako, Technical Director of Full Circle at Urnex. Regular soap and traditional methods (such as vinegar and water) are inadequate to remove the deposited coffee oils that quickly accumulate. This oily residue, along with build-up of mold, minerals and lime deposits, is also the source of bitter tasting coffee and problems related to equipment malfunction.

Those who savor a consistently great cup of coffee will appreciate the convenience of using the Full Circle products that clean coffee and espresso equipment in the same amount of time it takes to brew or grind a cup of coffee. But, the benefits of these products extend far beyond simplicity of use.

The Full Circle line of eco-friendly odorless coffee and espresso machine cleaning products include:

  • Descaling Power and Liquid to break down lime scale and mineral build up inside the machine
  • Cleaning Powder to remove oily residue and mold that lead to bitter tasting coffee and unnecessary machine wear
  • Cleaning Tablets to effectively remove build-up inside an automatic espresso machine
  • Coffee Grinder Cleaning Tablets to maintain proper function of burrs and the motor inside the grinder

For more information about Full Circle coffee and espresso equipment-cleaning products, please email info(at)urnex(dot)com; visit Full Circle Coffee Cleaners on Facebook or http://www.williams-sonoma.com or shop nationwide at Williams-Sonoma retail outlets.

About Full Circle
Urnex Brands, the creator of Full Circle cleaning products, has been the authority in coffee equipment cleaning since 1936. The companys full portfolio of coffee equipment cleaners is the result of years of innovation in creating products that meet the highest standards for cleaning power while maintaining a commitment to transparency and the use of environmentally safe ingredients.

Health News about Coffee at Work

Fairfield, NJ (PRWEB) May 5, 2005

Feeling guilty about too much Java on the job? Researchers say, don't. Experts uncover three good reasons why coffee-drinking workers can relax & enjoy the joe

According to 2004 estimates, more than 167 million Americans 60% of the population drink coffee each day. Thats about 6.3 billion gallons last year alone, many of which were consumed on the job. While decades of prognostication about the possible downside of too much coffee-drinking clearly hasnt deterred Americans from doing it, it has made some workers feel a twinge of guilt each time they refill their cups.

Yet, research suggests that the guilt may be unnecessary. In fact, studies show that drinking coffee while on the job offers at least three key benefits: it increases focused energy, alertness and creativity; it enhances physical strength and endurance; and it can help relieve tension headaches.

According to Judson Kleinman, president of Corporate Essentials a leading corporate beverage service firm in the New York Metro area these findings come as no great surprise to the business community. There are many reasons why coffee-drinking at work has gained in popularity over the years from the social aspects of it to its impact on performance, he explains. Clearly, workers have known for years on an anecdotal, it-works-for-me level about the benefits of drinking coffee on the job, but it is encouraging that science is now confirming those beliefs, Kleinman adds.

Three Cheers for Coffee

Among the medical experts confirming coffees benefits is physiologist Terry Graham, PhD, who has studied the effects of coffee and caffeine for nearly 20 years at the University of Guelph in Canada. In a recent interview with WebMD1, Dr. Graham noted that the caffeine found in coffee likelystimulate[s] the brain and nervous system to do things differently. He believes that drinking two mugs of brew can be enough to signal the brain to ignore fatigue or recruit extra muscle power for physical performance. He notes, too, that caffeine may even have a direct effect on muscles themselves, causing them to produce a stronger contraction, and that caffeine has been shown to positively enhance endurance as well. Dr. Graham points out, though, that the most pronounced physical enhancement happens in people who sustain high levels of exertion during the day, like professional athletes.

As for mental stimulation, researchers in the U.K. believe they may have found the reason caffeine gives employees that morning or midafternoon boost to alertness and cognitive function. In a 2003 report in the Journal of Psychopharmacology 2, caffeinated coffee consumption protected study participants from a drop in noradrenaline levels in the brain. Those who drank decaf in the study did experience such a drop, which led to reduced alertness and impaired performance on a number of cognitive tasks.

Finally, workers battling a late-day tension headache at the office might also benefit from a cup of coffee, according to Fred Sheftell, M.D., co-founder and co-director of the New England Center for Headache in Stamford, Connecticut. He points out that caffeine is, in fact, an ingredient in many pain relievers, and notes that its ability to constrict blood vessels can help at the onset of a headache. Whats more, Dr. Sheftell says studies show that having a cup of coffee can enhance the effects of aspirin and other over-the-counter pain relievers by 30%.

The Business Bottom Line

According to Kleinman, most employers can find good news in the research for their bottom lines. Productivity is the name of the game, he notes, And its clear that, from a productivity standpoint, coffee has its benefits. Kleinman notes, however, that such productivity increases could literally walk out the door each day, as employees leave the office in search of superior brew. Many businesses are offering upscale, brand-name coffees like Starbucks or Java Cafe in their breakrooms in an effort to keep employees happy, at their desks working, Kleinman notes. Kleinman has seen a change in corporate coffee equipment, too, with more businesses opting for single-serve brewers that offer a fresh brew, one cup at a time, over the single-pot servers of the past.

How You Can Clean Your Coffee Machine

To have a clean coffee machine is just as essential as using high quality coffee beans, roasting coffee or milling them the correct way. If your coffee machine isn’t cleaned effectively you likely after a few months of use have a bad flavor of espresso.

Products particular for cleaning coffee machines

Anyone can get products in the grocery store which in turn are actually particular for cleaning coffee makers. These are generally products created from compact acid solution to make it more convenient for you. Nonetheless, you can even use vinegar and lemon juice which usually works just of the same quality as the higher priced coffee cleaner items. Vinegar and lemon juice usually are less expensive, therefore buying those items are merely a total waste of money.

Certainly not use soap to wash the circuit since this will damage by leaving lots of suds. Soap can leave behind a residue and which can damage the coffee maker and the coffee will then taste horrible. Even so, to clean the coffee pot and the filter tray it is recommended to use soap and rinse them properly with water.

Techniques to clean

* As just stated earlier, disconnect any component which can be washed with soap. Including the glass pot and also the filtration system container. Some devices have the filter built in and that you should cleaned after everytime soon after use.

* Make certain the coffee machine is cooled down when you begin this task. Clean off the dust of all of the surfaces with a wet cloth or sponge along with cleaning soap, specifically on areas where dust accumulate very easily. If there are any kind of coffee stains on the heating component you should use vinegar to scrub it gently using a sponge or cloth or rug.

* Next it’s time to thoroughly clean the components inside the device. Presently there are 2 great solutions to start this: Vinegar or perhaps fresh lemon juice. You heard right, these give good results every bit as good as any of those fancy cleansing treatments at the grocery store that cost a person plenty more. Mix vinegar or lemon juice fifty-fifty with water and pour that in the water container. Place the filtration basket and also the coffee pot properly as normal. It’s not necessary to utilize any kind of filter. Start the device and wait until the process is completed. If you are using the coffee maker several times every day, then you should work this process two times to make certain it really is cleaned perfectly.

* Now it is the last part. Do exactly the same process above once more, but now only use water. This cleans the parts and makes certain that there is no vinegar or lemon juice left within.

Your coffee machine should now be cleaned out thoroughly and the coffee really should taste far better again. There are many methods and merchandise to get this done, however I personally use this on my coffee machine at home and on the job and I have not found any difficulties or complaints from my co-workers about the quality of the coffee.

I furthermore suggest as well as take a look at the report on <a href=”http://lavazzaespressomachinesale.com/tag/lavazza-a-modo-mio-espresso-machine”>Lavazza A Modo Mio</a>

Have you ever wanted to be your own boss? If so, starting a

Starting your own vending machine business can be quite rewarding and requires a relatively small investment to start, but it does contain some challenges you will have to overcome before success is found. You should be able to find your first used vending machine and stock it up for around 0. If you can effectively find a way to profit off of that one machine, then you will inevitably be able to multiply your successes by repeating the process over and over again. Using this method you can set a goal of how much income you want to make, and work hard to attain it.

Unfortunately, being successful in the vending machine business is not just a matter of placing your first machine and collecting your profits. Just like any business, there are many factors like competition and bottom lines that will effect the outcome of your results. You will need some basic business knowledge to even have a chance at succeeding with vending machines.

The toughest obstacle to overcome will be your competition. No matter where you are from there is going to be at the very least, one other person vying for all the local business in your area. The location of your machines will be the absolute most important factor in determining your success. You can be certain that the best locations in your area will already have machines in place. The challenge is to convince the shop owners that they will benefit greater from having your vending machines in their establishment.

The best way to beat your competitor is by putting some good old fashion capitalism to use. You need to find out how much payoff the current owner of the spot is giving the proprietor. The next step is to beat that price. You can also promise to better service the machines by always keeping them full. This will keep the owners customers happy, and increase both yours and his profits. A complete win-win situation.

You will also need to find ways to keep your bottom line, or expenses, as low as you possibly can. You can achieve this by negotiating with wholesalers to buy in bulk and lower the price you pay for your stock. You should also service the machines on your own for as long as you can. Once you need to hire someone on to help you, your expenses will rise dramatically.

When I was six years old, my granddaddy would take me and my twin brother to work with him. Granddaddy worked at night as a security guard, so it was no trouble at all for him to let us go to work with him. And it was just the three of us, so needless-to-say, my granddaddy let us go nut! And I’m sure we drove him nuts, as well.

We had the best granddaddy in the world, just as long as we didn’t tell mom, he would let us swear, we could talk about sex, or anything else that we wanted to talk about, and the one thing that mom would have went crazy if she knew that he let us, DRINK COFFEE!

That started a fire that still burns today. My granddaddy introduced me to the greatest drink ever. And still every time I take a drink of coffee, I think about those special times. But, back then, I drank coffee because grown-ups drank it and mom would not let us drink it because it wasn’t good for us. I drink for different reasons, now. It really isn’t as bad for you as you think.

I’ve done a lot of research on coffee, and drinking it is not as bad
for you, at all, much to my surprise.

what would you say if I told you there was a natural elixir that could lower your risk of diabetes, colon cancer, or Parkinson’s disease? you would think I was crazy, right? Its true.

Researchers from Harvard University followed data on more than 126,000 people for 18 years, and what they found would surprise the heck out of you. The research found that drinking one to three cups of caffeinated coffee daily can reduce diabetes by single digits. But, drinking six or more cups of coffee per day slashed men’s risks by 54%  and more than 30% in women. The more coffee you drink, the better it is for you.

Here’s something else that you may not know. In males, drinking sperm stronger. The studies show that coffee consumption makes sperm swim faster and swim a longer distance. Coffee has actually been linked with infertility. This is a misconception.

Here are a few more points that I’ve found very interesting for you to read. Like both black and green tea, coffee contains antioxidants, which can help the cell mutation which may lead to cancer.

Surprisingly- given that coffee may be a migraine trigger- the caffeine may cure headaches. It is one of the ingredients in some pills because it increases the power of aspirin and other painkillers by as much as 40%.

Coffee consumption is also a brain stimulant. As coffee is a stimulant, it can help in concentration. Last year Dr Chiara Trombetti, of the humanities Gavazzeni institute in Italy, went as far as suggesting that a morning cup of milky coffee can get sleepy school children off to a good start. However, that is unlikely to be echoed by nutritionists here, who recommended sufficient sleep and good diet as better ways to cope with the mental demands of the brain.

Coffee even promotes liver health! Though doctors cannot explain the link, but studies have shown that coffee drinkers are less likely to develop liver disease, including Cirrhosis of the liver.

Coffee consumption even decreases the need for surgery on gallstones. Women are twice as likely as men to develop gallstones. In one study, women who drank four cups of coffee each day were 25% less likely to need surgery for gallstones than women who weren’t coffee drinkers.

Coffee consumption may actually be good for the skin. Caffeine appeared to improve micro-circulation when applied to the skin in one study, making cellulite look better.

Now, I’m sure my Granddaddy didn’t take all this information into consideration when he chose to be a coffee drinker. In fact I know he didn’t, he chose coffee because he liked it, but he’s almost 90 years old now, and I would like to think that his excessive coffee consumption had a little to do with him still being around, but in any case, I’m still glad he is.

As always, I hope you found this article both informative and entertaining. Thank you for reading, and may GOD bless you always, and in always.
