Moccamaster Ocean — Moccamaster / Moccamaster

Moccamaster USA, a brand known for its premium pour-over coffee brewers made of high-quality and sustainable materials, has unveiled an exciting new color. This year’s “color of the year” is Ocean, representing tranquility and stability. This peaceful and cheerful blue color reflects the latest trends in kitchen aesthetics. With this color in your kitchen, you can blend form and function seamlessly with a bold color to incorporate into your kitchen design.

The Moccamaster KBGV Select in color Ocean is now available directly from the Moccamaster website and through an exclusive partnership with Williams-Sonoma. Known for brewing excellence, Moccamaster brewers are certified by the European Coffee Brewing Centre and produce high-quality coffee to the SCA-approved Golden Cup standard every brew cycle. The Moccamaster KBGV Select is handmade in the Netherlands from high-quality, sustainable materials and backed by the industry’s best 5-year warranty.

Part of what makes the Moccamaster KBGV Select different from other pour-over brewers available on the market is the glass design, which blends elegance and sophistication in a long-lasting coffee maker. The maker is also available in many other stunning colors, such as Turquoise and Terracotta. No matter what type of kitchen vibe you’re going for, Moccamaster has a color suited for every coffee lover.

Each pour-over-style coffee brewer is designed to extract the maximum flavor from coffee grounds, replicating the more complex process of a manual pour-over you typically drink in a cafe. Moccamaster brewers and grinders are built to last a lifetime. They are the perfect choice for those who love and appreciate an excellent cup of coffee while elevating any kitchen aesthetic.

Whether paired with breakfast or enjoyed on its own throughout the day, the Equinox Blend invites customers to blast off into a new season with each sip.

Kloo delivers the first-ever Q grader-crafted coffee concentrate to your door

Crafted by the equivalent of a wine sommelier

Kloo Coffee

Many coffee and cold brew concentrates have recently been launched in the coffee market, but none have been crafted by Q Graders—until now. Kloo is the first coffee concentrate crafted by a Q Grader (the equivalent to a coffee sommelier), bottled and delivered right to your door. Kloo sets itself apart with its unique brewing process, invented by Kloo co-founder Mariella Cho. Kloo's coffee concentrates are roasted, brewed, aged, and bottled in-house, with Kloo having full control of its proprietary process.

The process begins by sourcing excellent quality coffee beans, which are graded on a scale of 100 by Q graders (trained and certified professional coffee sommeliers). A score of 85+ is the bar for excellence as defined by the Specialty Coffee Association (SCA). Kloo only sources beans scored 85 or greater. The brand tests many different coffee beans before deciding which to use, understanding that each bean represents a unique set of flavors that contribute to the range of options the world of coffee offers. After the beans are selected, the roasting process begins.

Arabica vs. Robusta: What to know about the most common types of coffee beans

What makes these coffee beans different?

coffee bean

Though my grandmother thinks "coffee is coffee," there are over 100 known types of coffee plant species, each with its unique traits. However, most of the coffee we consume worldwide comes from two main species: Arabica and Canephora. More commonly known as Arabica or Robusta coffee beans, these two varieties have unique characteristics in taste, caffeine content, ideal growing elevation, and more.

Each of these characteristics sets them apart and shows the average coffee drinker, like my grandmother, that coffee is not all the same. Different growing conditions and attributes translate to two different cups of coffee when brewed. Let's compare Arabica vs. Robusta and the qualities of each kind of coffee bean.
