The elephant range has become more and more fragmented. Elephants are no longer safe because there is a prize on the elephants head. http://ineedcoffee.com/08/elephant-conflict/ http://ineedcoffee.com/08/mechanical-harvesting/ Tue, 01 Jul 2008 04:00:00 GMT Coffee has now been mechanically harvested for over 20 years, and while there are a few different brands of machines they are all basically the same design with the same components. http://ineedcoffee.com/08/mechanical-harvesting/ http://ineedcoffee.com/08/coffee-intern/ Tue, 01 Jul 2008 04:00:00 GMT I recently gave a farm tour for a workshop about coffee farming. The class was attended by several Kona coffee farmers, some with quite a bit of farming experience. They didn't believe me when I said I do all the work myself and they unanimously decided that I need some full-time help. http://ineedcoffee.com/08/coffee-intern/ http://ineedcoffee.com/08/coffee-talk/ Tue, 01 Jul 2008 04:00:00 GMT I never used to drink coffee. I made it through college, the Army, work as a political campaign manager, a coffee-drinking wife, seminary, and one child. The combination of two children under the age of two and full-time work in parish ministry, however, put me over the edge. http://ineedcoffee.com/08/coffee-talk/ http://ineedcoffee.com/08/coffee-card/ Tue, 01 Jul 2008 04:00:00 GMT Through the sly smirk of a pierced lip it appears. A challenge offered; a gauntlet thrown. http://ineedcoffee.com/08/coffee-card/ http://ineedcoffee.com/08/going-green/ Sun, 01 Jun 2008 04:00:00 GMT Umesh Bhuju tries to do his bit to make the world a bit greener. These days, it's more than the "Reduce, Reuse and Recycle" mantra long associated with environmental consciousness. http://ineedcoffee.com/08/going-green/ http://ineedcoffee.com/08/testing-coffee/ Sun, 01 Jun 2008 04:00:00 GMT Everything changes. People aren't always happy with change but it happens whether we like it or not. It's kind of a survival instinct to be afraid of change because change isn't always safe. http://ineedcoffee.com/08/testing-coffee/ http://ineedcoffee.com/08/coffee-gifts/ Sun, 01 Jun 2008 04:00:00 GMT No matter what the occasion, it is sometimes hard to come up with coffee-related gift ideas, especially if you already have a budget in mind. http://ineedcoffee.com/08/coffee-gifts/ http://ineedcoffee.com/08/coffee-dad/ Sun, 01 Jun 2008 04:00:00 GMT Interestingly every coffee has its own character profile, it's own nature. Wouldn't it be a novel and interesting thought to match the style of a coffee gift, to Dad's own very special style? http://ineedcoffee.com/08/coffee-dad/ http://ineedcoffee.com/00/mental-spandex/ Sat, 11 Nov 2000 05:00:00 GMT Mental Spandex http://ineedcoffee.com/00/mental-spandex/ http://ineedcoffee.com/00/the-all-nighter/ Thu, 19 Oct 2000 04:00:00 GMT The All Nighter http://ineedcoffee.com/00/the-all-nighter/ http://ineedcoffee.com/08/where-is-the-remote/ Tue, 01 Jul 2008 04:00:00 GMT Where is the remote? http://ineedcoffee.com/08/where-is-the-remote/ http://ineedcoffee.com/08/switched-to-decaf/ Sun, 01 Jun 2008 04:00:00 GMT Switched to decaf. http://ineedcoffee.com/08/switched-to-decaf/ http://ineedcoffee.com/08/sell-all-my-shares/ Thu, 01 May 2008 04:00:00 GMT And sell all my shares! http://ineedcoffee.com/08/sell-all-my-shares/ http://ineedcoffee.com/08/meeting-death/ Thu, 01 May 2008 04:00:00 GMT Meeting Death for Coffee at Starbucks poem http://ineedcoffee.com/08/meeting-death/ http://ineedcoffee.com/08/death-came-to-tea/ Thu, 01 May 2008 04:00:00 GMT Death Came To Tea poem. http://ineedcoffee.com/08/death-came-to-tea/ http://ineedcoffee.com/08/chinese-coffee/ Thu, 01 May 2008 04:00:00 GMT While everyone has heard of Chinese tea, Chinese Coffee somehow just sounds wrong; unless it is an Al Pacino movie. And while China is famous for tea, they are becoming known in the coffee world too, both in the retail coffee shop world, and the wholesale green coffee arena. http://ineedcoffee.com/08/chinese-coffee/ http://ineedcoffee.com/08/starbucks-roundtable/ Thu, 01 May 2008 04:00:00 GMT I just saw a news story on how Starbucks is asking it's customers for ideas on how they can be a better company. Well good ideas are no fun if you can't share them with your friends. http://ineedcoffee.com/08/starbucks-roundtable/ http://ineedcoffee.com/08/season-extremes/ Tue, 01 Apr 2008 04:00:00 GMT From Coastal Maine to Cape Cod to the Jersey Shore to North Carolina’s Outer Banks, hundreds of cafes and roasters in popular summer destinations choose persevere through the slow offseason. http://ineedcoffee.com/08/season-extremes/
