How much caffeine is in decaf?
In the United States federal regulations require that in order to label coffee as "decaffeinated" that coffee must have had its caffeine level reduced by no less than 97.5 percent.
Where did the term "cup of joe" come from?
It has recently come to my attention that the answer to this
question is a bit up in the air so I will be reporting reasonable possibilities that I
pick up from the news groups here
1. The U.S. Navy used to serve alcoholic beverages on board ships. However, when Admiral
Josephus "Joe" Daniels became Chief of Naval Operations, he outlawed alcohol
onboard ships, except for very special occasions. Coffee then became the beverage of
choice, hence the term "Cup of Joe."
2. "Joe" is 19th Cent. American slang for coffee.
How do you spell Espresso?
By far, the most common spelling used throughout the world today is "espresso". This is a shortened form of the original Italian name for the drink "caffe espresso" (accent marks omitted). This spelling is considered to be the correct spelling by the vast majority of of coffee consumers, vendors, retailers, and producers
Put dark roast coffee beans on a waxpaper-covered baking sheet.
Melt some chocolate by putting a container with the chocolate in a pan of boiling water,
stir the chocolate when it is getting hot. Some experimentation regarding what chocolate
to use is in place. I used chocolate chips from Ghiradelli. One should probably aim for
dark and not too sweet chocolate.
Pour the chocolate over the beans and smear it so that each bean is covered - you should
have a single layer of covered beans not too far apart.
When the beans have cooled off a little bit, put the sheet in the fridge/freezer.
When solid, break off a piece and enjoy. Note: I often use very finely ground (think
espresso grind) coffee for this.
