A couple of interesting items I just ran across...
Firstly, The Coffee Magic Frothing Mug - if you don't want to learn all about frothing milk or don't have the budget for the equipment, you can shell out £4.98 (that's $9.42 in US dollars, according to the XE.com currency converter) and get this battery operated mug that does the frothing for you, right in the cup. Hit the switch, let it do its thing, pour in the coffee afterward. I dunno, it's easy enough for folx like me, but it seems like it takes some of the magic out of the whole process.
Next up: Roasting Coffee in a Popcorn Popper. Not your average home popcorn popper, I'm afraid. This article recommends a very special and hard to find popcorn popper. But there are good detailed instructions and more roasting information links at the very bottom.
While you're thinking about roasting your own, check out this page. Also roasting with a popcorn popper, and the same popper in fact, but controlled with a computer. Aren't people ingenious? Don't we just have way too much time on our hands?
