Caffeine Crystals

How cool is this, caffeine crystals.


Coffee and Caffeine


Coffee and caffeine have become quite the topic of interest in the last few years.  Check out this article to find out just what caffeine is.

Caffeine and Decaffeination


Caffeine is a one of the major components that can be found within coffee, tea and some other consumable products. Caffeine is a white substance which is odourless and bitter.Caffeine is also known as 1, 3, 7-Trimethylxanthine.But it has its IUPAC name named as 1, 3, 7-trimethylpurine-2,6-dione.

Caffeine
It is very interesting to study how caffeine is produced in nature. Purine or purine ring based compounds can be seen in many organisms in biological world. Among those compounds xanthine plays one of the major roles. When xanthine is methylated by methyl groups; compounds such as caffeine and theobromine are created. Caffeine is more like to be found in tea and coffee whereas cocoa is the best plane to find theobromine. Theobromine also is a xanthine alkaloid which is bitter, white and odourless as same as caffeine.
The chemical structure of purine (purine ring) is given below.

Coffee Consumption

Do you still wonder if you should be cutting back on coffee? Research continues to find more reasons that say coffee may actually be healthy and a good thing, from the National Coffee Association.



Caffeine & Health
Independent research by scientists worldwide continues to link coffee to significant (and surprising) healthful properties.

Coffee has a naturally complex botanical profile, with at least 1,000 natural compounds in the bean (including caffeine) and another 300 created in the roasting process. Scientists have linked a number of them, including some strong antioxidants, with a host of physiological benefits.
Research has shown that moderate coffee consumption (or 3-5 cups daily) may be associated with many positive effects, including:
§  Liver disease prevention
§  Improved cognitive function in older adults
§  Sharper memory
§  Increased athletic endurance
§  Reduced risk of type 2 diabetes
§  Longevity
Due to the increasing scientific evidence, coffee has earned a new – and improved – reputation. The latest U.S. Dietary Guidelines recently made an unprecedented recommendation for coffee as part of a healthy lifestyle. 

The Caffeine Buzz
Many of these potential benefits are associated with caffeine, a naturally occurring stimulant found in coffee beans. The amount of caffeine in a cup of coffee can vary, depending on factors ranging from the type of bean to how it's brewed.
Caffeinated coffee affects individuals differently, based on heredity, body weight, gender, metabolism (there are “fast caffeine metabolizers” versus slow ones), and coffee drinking habits.
While coffee has come to be closely associated with caffeine, today consumers can choose from a variety of caffeinated and decaffeinated options.

Coffee and the Aging Population


Start drinking coffee now as it could help you in the future with age related decline.

Drink COFFEE do Stupid things FASTER


Preserving the freshness of your Whole Bean coffee

We feel confident that you will be delighted with your Connoisseur Coffee and use it so quickly that you won't be worrying too much about how to store it.   But if necessary, in order to retain your coffee's freshness for several weeks, just follow the instructions below.


To preserve the freshly roasted flavor of your coffee beans as long as possible, store them in either the re sealable bag they came in or an opaque air-tight container, at room temperature, not in the refrigerator or freezer.

(Freezing coffee beans causes the cell walls on the outer layer of the bean to burst. This changes the molecular structure and the coffee goes stale quickly. Gasses are released, moisture and oils evaporate. In addition, if not thawed properly after freezing, the moisture from the condensation will also cause damage to the bean).
Connoisseur Coffee Bay Area Blend on Amazon

Avoid clear containers which allow light to compromise the freshness and taste of your coffee. Keep your beans in a dark and cool location.  A counter top near the oven or stove or one that receives hot afternoon sun may be too warm.
