			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Today I finished the last of my La Bean Coffee, and it was a sad day as this was some great coffee.  I tired the Bali and the Dark Knight Blend (pictured below) both were great although I must say I preferred the Dark Knight Blend which is a rich dark blend.  </p>
<p>One of the great features on the La Bean website is how to brew the perfect cup which is easier than you might think.  I prefer to use a French Press over a drip as I find it has the best flavor, trust me switch from your old coffee maker to a french press and you&#8217;ll taste the different and love it.  Below is how La Bean suggests brewing their coffee to make the perfect cup:</p>
<p>&#8220;Brewing the perfect cup of coffee is not that difficult, in fact it is quite easy, it just requires the right ingredients and the right measurements.</p>
<p>Grind your coffee just before brewing and use filtered water.</p>
<p>We recommend using a French Press. It may seem like a hassle but we assure you it’s worth it. Use ½ cup of whole beans for a one liter press. Grind the entire ½ cup on a coarse setting. Use water that is just about to boil (never pour boiling water on coffee grinds) and steep for 4 minutes. Press and enjoy.</p>
<p>If you prepare your coffee in a Drip Coffee Maker, set the grinder to medium and use 2 large tablespoons of coffee per 6 ounces of water.</p>
<p>If you use a cone filter (pour over) grind your coffee fine and use the same ratio of 2 large tablespoons per 6 ounces of water. &#8221;  <a href="http://www.labeancoffee.com/Brewing_the_Perfect_Cup.html">Source</a></p>

<p> I was saddened this morning when I went to make my morning coffee and all of my Ethiopian Organic coffee from The Roasterie was all gone.  This quickly became my absolute favorite coffee of the moment and if you know me I try lots of coffees but nothing (so far) has compared to this one. The coffee has this great flavor that I have never tasted with any other bean, I think that it&#8217;s because of the way it is roasted and the quality of beans that are used. </p>
<h2>QUICK FACTS About The Roasterie:</h2>
<p> </p>
<ul>
<li>The Roasterie imports only 100 percent Arabic Specialty Grade coffees from more than 25 different producing countries.</li>
<li>Each coffee bean purchased by The Roasterie has been picked by hand.</li>
<li>The Roasterie is a strong advocate for Fair Trade, Rainforest Alliance, Organic, Smithsonian Bird Friendly® certifications and more.</li>
<li>The Roasterie supplied freshly roasted specialty coffee to an estimated one million customers in 2007.</li>
<li>The Roasterie has received more No. 1 ratings on CoffeeReview.com than any other roaster in the nation.</li>
</ul>

							I just read The China Study and THAT'S IT!!!  We're going Vegan.  I don't like meat much, anyway.  You just followed me on twitter - so thank you!  You look like you have some good info here.
