Like most office drones, it’s hard to pass by a Starbucks on the way to work without stopping for a cup of America’s finest. But a new trend has baristas cringing and customers rejoicing: the Instant Brew. It’s not on the menu, but most baristas will make you one if the store isn’t too busy.
The Instant Brew is when baristas brew coffee directly into the cup and not into a giant vat of joe. It’s also known as a pour-over or single-drop. This trend is becoming more popular among small specialty coffee houses, and it produces a stronger brew similar to a French press, but without the grit.Like most office drones, it’s hard to pass by a Starbucks on the way to work... more

I'm starting to see these little empty non-recyclable, non-biodegradable petroleum-based plastic containers everywhere. I've seen entire trash cans filled with these things at convenience stores after the morning rush... day after day.
In this day and age, you would think that Keurig and the companies associated with this product (Paul Newman's Own, Heifer, Green Mountain Coffee, Celestial Seasonings, Ghirardelli) who claim to be "organic" and/or "sustainable", would be more aware of it's impact to our environment.
You can contact these companies at the blog post above.
"The Keurig single-cup brewing system uses a special packaging for coffee, tea and hot cocoa called K-Cup portion packs or "K-Cups". Each K-Cup is an airtight, mini-brewer that locks out oxygen, light, moisture and humidity while locking in freshness and flavor. "
Personally, I'll take a french press any day over hot plastic brew.

Apparently baristas at the Grab-n-Go Coffee shop in Everett, WA will serve you everything you need to start your morning right. The shop participates in the recent "baristas in bikinis" trend, but some baristas went too far with their exhibitionism.
Investigators saw the women expose their crotches, lick whipped cream off their co-workers' private parts and pose naked for pictures inside the Grab-n-Go Espresso stand at 8015 Broadway, according to police reports obtained by The Herald on Wednesday. Detectives say the women were charging up to $80 to strip down and flash customers while fixing lattes and mochas. Now five Grab-n-Go baristas have been charged "with multiple counts of prostitution and violating the city's adult entertainment ordinance."Apparently baristas at the Grab-n-Go Coffee shop in Everett, WA will serve you... more

PARKLAND, Wash. -- A man dressed in woman’s underwear and exposing himself drove up to a Parkland espresso stand three times before one of the baristas threw a cup of boiling water at him, said the Pierce County Sheriff’s Office.
Jamae Feddock, a bikini clad barista at Java Girls, said she first thought the man dressed in women’s underwear and exposing himself was a sick joke, until the man came back several times.
VIDEO: Man Was Wearing Woman's Bra, Underwear
VIDEO BACKSTORY: Bikini Baristas Not Only Ones Exposing Themselves
The first time he came to the window Feddock said he was wearing a white bra and white panties and touching himself inappropriately.
Then he came back a second time.
“He has underwear over his face, he's wearing hot pink panties now and the underwear that he was wearing is over his face and there's a little peephole so he can see,” Feddock said.
Feddock and another barista were working around 5 a.m. last Thursday when the incident happened. They tried to get a look at the man’s license plate, but that too was covered up with women’s underwear.
When the man came back a third time one of the baristas took a cup of 220 degree water and doused him with it.
“Kylie opened the door and threw boiling hot water on his face and his chest and he said oooh yeah,” Feddock said.
Police agencies around Pierce County said they are seeing more and more incidents of indecent exposure -- as more coffee stands open -- many with women dressed provocatively -- or barely dressed at all.
“I don't think we can make a quid pro quo there that this is causing the effect, and they certainly don't deserve that behavior, but we do have some of these stands that have been victimized by these activities,” said Det. Sgt. Jerry Bates a Pierce County Sheriff’s Deputy.

A judge in California has ruled that supervisors cannot take a share of gratuities given to Baristas, and ordered the coffee chain to pay back the tips, totalling $100 million in all.
Judge Patricia Cowett said the practice was a violation of a state law prohibiting managers and supervisors from sharing in employee tips. Jou Chou, a former barista who filed the lawsuit back in 2004, stated yesterday that he felt vindicated. 'Tips really help those receiving the lowest wages. I think Starbucks should pay shift supervisors higher wages instead of taking money from the tip pool', he pointed out. California is Starbucks’ largest American market, with around 2,460 stores. The company has more than 11,000 stores in the US.A judge in California has ruled that supervisors cannot take a share of gratuities... more
