Good news for coffee drinkers in the Windy City! Stumptown is planning to open another roastery this year, in Chicago. It will be the company’s fourth city with a roastery, after Portland, Seattle and New York. Will Intelligentsia reciprocate in Portland? We'll see. link
Do you have problems trying to get your coffee to the right temperature for drinking? A couple of entrepreneurs have come up with a way to solve that problem. Coffee Joulies look like a couple oversized metal coffee beans, and they cool your coffee when it is too hot, then warms it when it is too cold. It looks like a gem of an invention to me. link
Giorgio Milos of The Atlantic details the process of roasting your own coffee at home (I’m still reluctant to try it, with so much well-roasted coffee around this city. . .one of these days). link

You can recycle your Starbucks iced drink cups at Whole Foods if you don’t want to just throw them away (for the record, you can recycle plastic cups at Starbucks in Asia). link
Headed to the Oregon Coast, but don’t know where to get coffee? Sleepy Monk in Canon Beach might be a place to check out, if you’re looking for fair-trade organic coffee. link
Coffee is good for you! link
Coffee is bad for you! link
CBS’ Andy Rooney, doesn’t give a damn if it’s good for you, or bad for you, or good for you, or. . . he’s not listening. link
