NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - Coffee and tea lovers may have a decreased likelihood of developing the most common form of malignant brain tumor in adults, a new study suggests.

The findings, from a study of more than 500,000 European adults, add to evidence from a recent U.S. study linking higher coffee and tea intake to a lower risk of gliomas, a group of brain tumors that makes up about 80 percent of malignant brain cancers in adults.

Article: Nestlé's Ground Attack on Coffee - WSJ.com

NESCOFFEE

Nestlé—the Swiss company whose Nescafé instant coffee and upscale Nespresso brewing machines make it the world’s largest coffee company—plans to train thousands of farmers over 10 years and provide them with new coffee trees. The company won’t own the plantations or bind farmers into long-term contracts, but Chief Executive Paul Bulcke thinks the relationship it develops with the farmers will lead them to sell to Nestlé.

MoJo Should Be Standard For Every Roaster

MoJo Should Be Standard For Every Roaster

Posted on September 12, 2010 by Mike

There are a lot of variables involved during roasting. Ambient temperatures change, batch sizes change, drop temps change, etc. If you’re tracking as many details as possible, why wouldn’t you use MoJoToGo as well? It can determine very quickly when changes in development occur, changes that prohibit proper extraction in the cup. I’ve said before that I believe MoJoToGo can help you maintain your equipment. Roasting is another example where having objective analysis is worth every penny of investment. This past summer I was able to identify very quickly that there were problems with some local coffees (most likely due to an extreme heat wave that rose the ambient temperatures of the roastery). Because they don’t objectively analyze every (or any) batch that they roast, it was difficult for them to understand why their coffees didn’t taste as good as usual. Chris Tacy reminded me of this experience when he brought up the very same subject on Twitter. In a perfect world every batch is as similar as possible, based on your predetermined profile. But it’s very difficult to get it right every time. If you’re testing everything, MoJoToGo will identify the blown batches right away.
