Located at the nexus of Europe and Asia, Turkey has a long tradition of uniquely brewed coffee, made with grounds finer than those used to craft the average espresso. The coffee is prepared in a special long-handled pot until a thick foam rises to the top and then served unfiltered, with the grounds lining the bottoms of small cups traditionally used for fortune telling. Turkey also has another notable coffee claim to fame too - it currently has the cheapest Starbucks coffee in the world.

When the Paiter Surui community expelled the last invaders of their land in 1981, they faced a divisive decision. Should they keep the coffee plantations left by the colonisers?

Coffee byproducts offer a promising, cost-effective and environmentally sustainable alternative for improving the functional and ecological performance of bio/edible films. These agro-industrial residues exhibit a richness in biofunctional compounds such as polyphenols, caffeine and dietary fibers, which contribute significant antioxidant, antimicrobial and UV-barrier properties, making them ideal candidates for applications in active food packaging.

A good cup of coffee (decaf included) delivers on all fronts: Flavor, acidity, body, sweetness, and balance, aka The Pleasure Principle.

But, as a veteran barista, I would argue that the opposite is actually true: Only the most diehard bean-heads tread decaf domain.

Where larger, electric espresso machines generate the pressure and heat needed for espresso inside their massive housings, the Flair takes a different approach. A large lever sits atop a small stack of brewing equipment, and you use that lever to create the bars of pressure necessary to get espresso. There's a chamber for your grounds and another atop it for hot water.

Discourse Coffee Workshop voted to unionize under the Milwaukee Area Service and Hospitality Workers Organization (MASH).

Dutch Bros now ranks as America's third-largest coffee chain behind Starbucks and Dunkin', with 1,140 locations and $1.6 billion in business. Energy drinks alone account for 25% of sales, while traditional hot coffee barely registers.

Coffee brimming with lemon myrtle cream. Matcha banked with strawberry-lychee foam. Cold brew with choc-orange froth thick enough to stuff a pillow.

A small, stingless bee may be able to raise coffee yields while fitting into real-world pest control programs, according to a new study from Brazil. In a field study on full-sun arabica farms, researchers reported a 67% higher fruit yield on coffee branches closer to colonies of the native stingless bee Scaptotrigona depilis, compared with branches farther away. The study was recently published in Frontiers in Bee Science.
