Nespresso Conjures Up 20 Percent Sales growth in 2009
Q1 for 2009 is looking really good for Nespresso so far. How good? Well how does 20 percent sales growth in 2009 given the recession sound to you? It sounds really good to us, and proof that a premium portioned coffee product is looking recession proof.
"We are very confident about double digits for 2009," Richard Girardot told a news conference as he opened a major new plant in the Swiss town of Avenches. Nespresso saw sales growth slow to somewhere in the 20s in the first quarter of 2009. Asked how sales had developed since then, Girardot said the trend had stayed about the same and he expected a similar rate for the full year.
Vending Solution for Single-Cup Brewing - K-Cup Vending Machine and Brewer
There's a new giant single serve coffee maker in town that uses K-Cups - a giant Keurig Vending Machine. The Specialty Coffee Business Unit of Green Mountain Coffee Roasters, Inc. (NASDAQ: GMCR), is offering a new full-line vending machine designed for single-cup brewing in high-traffic commercial and manufacturing environments.
The Green Mountain Coffee branded vending machine dispenses K-Cup portion packs and is used in conjunction with a Keurig Single-Cup Brewer. The Green Mountain Coffee vending unit holds more than 1,000 K-Cup portion packs. Operators can choose to offer up to 12 product selections from more than 60 coffees, teas, and hot cocoa in K-Cups from GMCR’s family of brands, including Green Mountain Coffee, Tully’s Coffee, Newman’s Own® Organics Coffee, Caribou Coffee®, Celestial Seasonings Teas, and Café Escapes. The machines are paired with Keurig’s proprietary brewing system, which delivers the proper amount, temperature and pressure of water to ensure a perfect cup of coffee, tea or hot cocoa, in under one minute.
We want one of these for the Single Serve Coffee headquarters - we're not sure where will put it, but we think we can work it out.
NexPod Review at Single Serve Espresso - Make Your Own Nespresso Capsules
Our sister site SingleServeEspresso.com has a review of the NexPod refillable capsules for Nespresso. NexPod is a new pod system for the Nespresso line of makers that allows you to use your own capsules with your favorite espresso coffee. You might even be able to save a little money over the ~$0.55 cost per Nespresso capsule; SSE paid $23 on eBay for their NexPod shipped from Switzerland. That puts it at about $0.28 each empty capsule. Adding up the cost of about 4-5g of coffee per capsule, that adds about a dime to the cost of each unit. These can save about $15 - $20 per box of 80 units; not bad.
Their verdict? The NexPod is a little hard to use and maybe not worth the time and effort, but it does allow you to use your own coffee. Click on through for the full review.
This robot uses about 20 digital servos in the body and a ton of robot magic to make a perfect cup of coffee. We can only wish our robot masters in the future make such an amazing cup of coffee, and don't make us serve them.
Review: Fair Trade The Perfect Peach K-Cups for Keurig
There's something truly amazing about a coffee that has a peachy flavor, and a warm coffee finish. Sure we were skeptical at first when we thought about drinking the Fair Trade The Perfect Peach K-Cups coffee from Green Mountain, but after our second and third cup the skepticism turned into delight. This is a very interesting, and complex flavored coffee, and refreshing in both hot and iced coffee formats.
To enjoy your Handpresso on the go, you're going to need this carry case/outdoor set. This stylish bag contains the portable and manual espresso machine called Handpresso WILD, and comes with unbreakable cups and a 300 ML thermo insulated flask. We're not sure if the small napkins are necessary, but who wants an espresso mustache on a long hike.
The set features:
1 Handpresso Wild
4 unbreakable cups,
300ml thermo-insulated flask in stainless steel (to have hot water always close to hand),
Tassimo Pro Office Coffee Brewer - Perfect for Your Small Business
Tassimo and Bosch are coming out with a pro line of single serve coffee makers aimed at the small office coffee market called Tassimo Pro. We don't have many details, but we do know the Tassimo Pro has an adjustable coffee cup stand, and looks to be hardier than it's consumer market cousins.
We're also not sure if you'll be able to get the brewer as a consumer, or will have to qualify as a small business. We're also wondering if consumer T-Discs will work in the Tassimo Pro brewer, or if there will be different sized T-Discs for the home business market. The Tassimo Pro small business brewer will debut in Q3 of this year.
Mr. Coffee and Keurig Create New Line of K-Cup Single-Cup Coffeemakers
No you are not seeing double, both Cuisinart and Mr. Coffee are going to be making their version of the Keurig single-cup and one cup coffee makers. Jarden Consumer Solutions, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Jarden Corporation (NYSE: JAH), and Keurig, Incorporated, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Green Mountain Coffee Roasters, Inc. (NASDAQ: GMCR), announced a new agreement to jointly develop Mr. Coffee single-cup coffeemakers. These will feature Keurig’s branded, patented single-cup brewing technology for the more than 200 varieties of gourmet coffees, teas and hot cocoa packaged in Keurig’s patented K-Cup® portion packs.
Jarden Consumer Solutions (JCS) intends to commercialize the new coffeemakers in the U.S. and Canada under the Mr. Coffee® brand featuring Keurig®-branded brewing technology to be sold to JCS’s retail customers alongside its other products.
We'll have more details as we find them, but having Keurig, Breville, Cuisinart, and now Mr. Coffee make K-Cup single serve coffee makers is really exciting news, and should lead to lots of new K-Cups as well.
Cuisinart K-Cup Brewers On the Way - Keurig Announces Coffeemaker Partnership
It looks like we're going to be see Cuisinart branded single serve and one cup coffee makers in the future that won't be using coffee pods. Cuisinart and Keurig today announced they are entering into a licensing and distribution agreement that will enable Conair (Cuisinart's parente company) to develop, market and sell, in the United States and Canada, single-cup coffeemakers under the Cuisinart brand. The launch is currently planned for spring 2010. The products will be co-branded Cuisinart and Keurig and will be designed to work with the 200+ varieties of gourmet coffees, teas and hot cocoa packaged in Keurig’s patented K-Cup portion packs.
We'll have more details as we get them, but this is very exciting news indeed.
Coffee People K-Cup Extra Bold Donut Shop Coffee for Keurig Brewers
It's funny how you revisit a coffee and really start to enjoy it all over again, and recently we've been drinking a ton of Coffee People's Donut Shop Coffee. The Coffee People Donut Shop Coffee is more on the medium to mild side (read our full review here), with a hint of extra bold flavor. It's very low in acid, and the raspy throat often accompanied by other Donut Shop Coffees is not present here. There is a nice flavor in the mouth after having a few sips, and the caffeine amount seems spot on.
We have the Sun Cafe coffee pod brewer in house, and are very excited to review it. So far it looks very similiar to a the Simplehuman coffee pod brewer, but we'll run it through our review tests and see what we find. One thing we expect as a shortcoming is the ability to use two Senseo 7 gram coffee pods at a time. Not much of a limitation, but we thought a lot of people back in the days of the Simplehuman pod brewer were disappointed in the lack of this functionality. Since then however, the availability of 8-12 gram one cup coffee pods has grown tremendously.
The Sun Cafe single cup pod brewer makes coffee one cup at a time. Patented pod drawer works with a wide variety of pods, allowing you to choose your favorite coffee or tea. Innovative extraction system brings out the full range of the coffee or tea for a perfectly balanced cup. Brewer comes with a variety pack of Kienna Coffee pods.
Stylish LCD display for quick and easy-to-use.
Brew 5 to 12 ounces of coffee or tea to preferred strength by changing the volume setting. Specifications:
Weirder things have happened in the Single Serve Coffee World, but nothing weirder than a cat named Sockington, and a cafe latte printer. Yep - a cat and a latte meet together on a coffee table, and on said coffee table is an amazing printer that can well - print an image on the foam of your latte. Crazy. The printer is from OnLatte.com - we'll see what we can find on that, but for now enjoy some Sockington.
