Espro Medium Pre-Review

Back in 2002 two innovative mechanical engineers sat down for coffee and sketched their first of many designs to come into the company we know today as Espro. Their names were Bruce Costantine and Chris McLean. By 2004 Espro was born. They had found a way to take out the biggest problems that are faced by the French Press. Coffee grinds everywhere. Breaking models. Staying warm for five minutes. Espro has made a beautifully stunning work of art. Their Press is stainless steel. Vacuum sealed. Double walled to keep the coffee hot for a minimum of two hours. It has a unique two filter system that filters the coffee in two stages that enables the coffee to be pressed 9-12 times finer in comparison to an average French Press. In doing this they have removed 10-20% of leftover waste. They came out with their large model first, and now they have a medium one.It will be 12-18 oz. This Press will save 20 to 30% of waste! The new Medium Press is available for a discounted rate on Espro's...

Another Sugary Ban On Drinks, Now Coffee.

Afternoon . It is a snowy/rainy cloudy dreary day here in N.Y.C. What else is new lol ? I just read an article from the New York Times that explains all about Mayor Bloomberg's new "rules" on buying coffee and what we could put in it . Read on. Does this bother you guys to put in your own sugar ? Is it a problem ? Do you think it will stop people from buying " big sugary coffee drinks " ? For me not so much. We all know no matter what you tell people they will do as they please. Case in point people still smoke even though we know the horrible health risks. I don't even use sugar in my coffee so another reason this won't effect me. I never order large coffee drinks either. I once in a blue moon will order a small or Medium French Vanilla Skim Latte at Dunkin Donuts. But 7 days out of the week I make my own coffee at home. It's cheaper and most of the coffee I try out I think stinks. Yes even Starbucks, and definitely Dunkin Donuts. The hot ...

Friday Run Down 3/1/2013

Well here we are yet again. Another Friday. The weeks just seem to fly by. In a couple of weeks I myself will be 27. I really can't imagine where the years have gone. I feel like it was just yesterday I graduated high school. Then before I knew it I was moving out, getting engaged, married, and a million things in between from the time I was 20 until now. I met my husband when I was 20 and haven't looked a day back since. I am an old school romantic. I believe in lasting love. Growing old together. And of course soul mates. Well if any of you can relate to me in the years flying by, how have you dealt with them ? Do you find yourself savoring that cup of coffee just a little bit longer to try and soak up the precious minutes each day has ? Do you sit outside and star at the clouds? Do you hug your loved ones a little tighter everyday? I do :) OK well your favorite part of the week ( I just know it !!) The Friday run down of all the gossip and facts regarding the coffee/tea ...
