Just a word about revenue and this coffee blog
If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!
I feel the need to mention a few things about this coffee blog and how it operates.
First off, the only revenue that I get is that from Text Link Ads and the Google Adsense that I show and that is not a whole heck of a lot. I do not charge to review your coffee or coffee related products. This is the main reason that I require full size coffee when you send it for review. Please do not send me tiny samples to review. How can one test and test again when you are looking at a one cup sample?
I ask for beans rather the pre-ground. You just can not expect a great assessment from pre-ground coffee, though I have had some in the past to be quite excellent. The odds are against you.
I plan to put a donation type button up soon. I encourage you to use it if you are looking for a way to reward or thank me.
As for any coffee related freebies or samples that I list: I do not send these myself. Do not e-mail asking me to. You must visit the links I provide to sign up for a free sample or freebie.
Alright, that being said, I hope you have a great day and I thank you from my heart for all your readership. You all are the best!
Uh OH!
CRAP! I just totally screwed up my theme template. Please ignore any odd themes until I get my back online. Sorry peeps! I will have it done today. I don’t know…. maybe it is time for a new look? The old one has been around for near three years. Getting sort of boring.
Wal*Mart introduces Real Product Opinions/Reviews by Real Shoppers
I read that Wal*Mart has now enabled the site to accept real-time reviews/opinions on all their online products. I guess if they sell it, you can review it. I am going to leave a link to their coffeemaker page and you can go from there. Leave an opinion, let us all know what you thought of a coffee gadget you purchased through Wal*Mart. We want to know!
Seems as though many merchant sites are doing this. eBay included. I think it is just good business sense.
Here’s the link:

On the follow link is a list of (2) most recent coffeemaker recalls from both Atico International USA Inc. and Gevalia. I’ve included a description from recalls dating July 18th 2007 and March 14th 2007. Hope you didn’t have one of the mentioned units and if so, please try to discard them or return them for a refund or safe replacement.

Just a note to let my readers know that I have started a new blog for electronic gadgets and oddities. It is new so there isn’t much yet and I am but one person that can find time to write. You can check it out here –> Geekie Gadgets
Thanks!
More Reviews Coming up! Stay Tuned….
Stayed tuned for reviews on Cafe Vivo, Frank’s Chop Shop, Boca Java, and Mug Revolution!
Review Change
Just a note to let you know I will be changing (ever so slightly) the way I review coffees and it’s related objects of love. I have several reviews in the works to which a couple should find their way on blog in the next couple days. I will be formatting the review with a bit more care and adding a scale of like/dislike. I can no longer weigh my tastes in a love/hate fashion. Sometimes I don’t ‘love’ it, but I do like it a lot or I don’t ‘hate’ it but it isn’t my favorite bean in the grinder either. You see? So, I hope you will find my new way of reviewing to be a bit more, shall we say, ‘organized’.
