What could be better than Dunkin’ coffee and amazing-smelling candles combined into one? To celebrate National Coffee Day on Sept 29th, Dunkin’ has announced a new collaboration with home fragrance company, Homesick. Starting at 10. am. on Sept 27th, coffee lovers can browse and purchase these limited-time coffee candles right from Homesick’s website.

Back in 2019, Dunkin’ offered a similar collaboration with Homesick — so we’re excited to see what this year’s collaboration will bring. The following two options will be available for purchase:

  • Original Blend Candle ($34.95): The candle features notes of espresso bean, cold brewed coffee and cream.
  • Perfect Combo Car Freshener ($12): The air freshener combines the scent of a Dunkin’ frosted strawberry sprinkle donut with iced coffee.

Coffee molds: What’s really inside your coffee?
All about mycotoxins
Whole beans and ground coffee

Imagine you open a package of cheese from your fridge to find something green and fuzzy growing on it. Your immediate reaction (beyond saying "ew") probably involves throwing it in the trash immediately. Molds on foods come in all varieties, yet not all are visible to the naked eye, such as mycotoxins.

Coffee molds are one example, which could be living on your coffee beans without you even knowing. These toxic compounds are odorless and invisible and can only be identified through lab testing. Do you know what's inside your cup of coffee? Most of us don't know if our coffee has mold. Here's what you should know about coffee molds and how to avoid them.

If you're not from the smallest state in our nation, Rhode Island, the term "coffee milk" likely doesn't hold a lot of meaning to you. I'm from New Jersey, and when I hear "coffee milk," I picture half-and-half or some coffee creamer. However, to Rhode Islanders or those familiar with the Ocean State, coffee milk has an entirely different meaning.

If you search for photos, this specialty coffee beverage might look like chocolate milk, but it doesn't contain any chocolate at all. So, what is coffee milk, and what is it made from? Let's dive into everything about this unique Rhode Island coffee and how you can make it (no matter where you live).

Though many people rely on the magic brewing process that ensues inside espresso machines, few take the time to appreciate the process of how an espresso machine works.

Let's examine the brewing process to discover what makes espresso machines so special (and different from a regular coffee maker). Doug Parkison, Category Director at De'Longhi Group, shared his expertise to explain what happens inside your espresso maker.
