The AeroPress is here!

Website News
6/4/08 - We've been growing so fast that we've outgrown our server, so last month we migrated to a server with much more capacity. However, in the changeover we lost some functionality in our Shopping Cart and a number of orders were never completed. Thank you to all the folks who took the time to call in to place your orders while we were working on the fixes!
40th Annual Kinetic Sculpture Race
6/3/08 - The 2008 race is over and the Kinetic Koffee/Los Bagels team rode admirably, incredibly garnering no awards but pleasing the crowds with the Not 2 Fast Not 2 Furious car. Charlie and I had a great time! There are a lot of videos on YouTube along with coverage on a number of websites. One of the sponsors of the race was local radio station KHUM and their blog is a great place to start. See you next year??? You can also check out the Kinetic Sculpture Lab to see
Limited Release Roast for May/June, Kinetics Time!
5/19/08 - I am a little late in getting this updated, as we've been pretty busy here at Kinetic Koffee World HQ. This month's Special Roast is a returning favorite from last year, the Guatemala La Voz. It's a wonderful dark roast with a nicely balanced, dense body and fruity and chocolate overtones. One of my regular customers ordered 20 bags the day he heard I was getting this, so you should order yours soon!
We're (almost) Famous!
4/28/08 - I woke up to a note this morning that my friend and colleague, Tim Jackson aka MasiGuy, posted an entry on his blog about Kinetic Koffee. How cool is that? Tim, besides being a really cool guy and a trackie like me, is rather famous in the cyber world of blogs and podcasts, even presenting a seminar to the AMA on the practice. His blog is ranked #140 on the AdAge Power 150 list of blogs. Check it out here.
Blown Away at Sea Otter
4/25/08 - We're back and recovered from the Sea Otter Classic. It seems that there is always some sort of weather issue each year. Last year, it was high winds and heavy rain; this year they left out the rain but kept the wind. So it was a wonderful dust storm on Saturday that sent some vendors' tents flying away and canceled some of the more acrobatic demonstrations.
April's Special Roast
4/08/08 - Our April Limited Release coffee is an Ethiopian Yergecheffe and it’s in a special gold bag this month to celebrate our company’s 5 year anniversary and 3 years as a roaster (has it really been that long?!?). It’s a medium bodied coffee with a sweet blueberry and cocoa flavor to it.
Raising money for Trips for Kids
4/4/08 - I am happy to announce that Kinetic Koffee will be offering a special fundraising coffee at the Sea Otter Classic (April 17-20) in Monterey, CA to benefit Trips for Kids. One half of the purchase price of $10 will go directly to this great program. The roast will be our popular French Konnexion. Please stop by Booth #825 to sample and purchase some of this delicious coffee and help us continue our mission of funding deserving non-profits. See you there!

Kinetic Koffee hit the road again for one of the biggest paddlesport events in the country, Canoecopia, in Madison, WI March 7-9. Yes, we were in the frozen north, where the high temp for the weekend was only about 20 degrees...
