"bio": "I am a writer, editor, mother of twins, and enthusiastic home cook. I was raised by an Italian-American mother who, in the 1970s, grew her own basil (because she couldn’t find any in the local grocery stores), zucchini (for those delicious flowers), and tomatoes (because the ones in the store tasted like “a potato”). My mom taught us to love all kinds of food and revere high-quality ingredients. I am now trying to follow in my mother’s footsteps and am on a mission to help my daughters become adventurous eaters who have a healthy respect for seasonal food raised locally. My daughters and I grow vegetables and go to the farmers’ market. We also love to shop at Piedmont Grocery and Trader Joe’s. When I’m not hanging out with my daughters or cooking, I like to contribute to cookbooks (including Williams-Sonoma’s Food Made Fast and Foods of the World series), work as an editor, and write about food for \u003cstrong>Bay Area Bites\u003c/strong> and \u003cstrong>Denise's Kitchen\u003c/strong>. My food inspirations are M.F.K Fisher, Julia Child, and Alice Waters — three fabulous women who encompass everything I love about food.",

"bio": "Elaine spent 12 years as a producer, writer, and correspondent for television and radio both in the Bay Area (KPIX/CBS 5, KSAN FM, KTCT AM) and in Asia (Metro Radio, MTV Asia). She has been nominated for three Emmy Award nominations for her work on the program “Evening Magazine.” She then moved on to Silicon Valley where she managed social media, public relations, and event planning for various tech companies such as Intuit, BlogHer, Rocket Fuel, and Vocera.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nIn 2007, Elaine started her own blog (then called “VirgoBlue”) highlighting some of her favorite restaurants around the Bay Area. These days, her blog “\u003ca href=\"http://www.virgoinwonderland.wordpress.com\">Virgo in Wonderland\u003c/a>” still reflects her love of food, as well as travel, fascinating people she’s met, and her family’s Disneyland adventures. Her food dislikes include okra, lamb, sweet potatoes, and yellow cheese on pizza. Follow her on Instagram @virgoinwonderland",

It was time to welcome the room of makers and media, gathered in San Francisco for the 2nd annual \u003ca href=\"http://www.goodfoodawards.org\">Good Food Awards\u003c/a>, a celebration of the best of artisanal food production from coast to coast. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Most of you are too young to have grown up in the white-bread world that I did,\" said Reichl. Every cheese was sliced and wrapped in plastic, all strawberries were huge and tasted like cotton. This changed, slowly, through the work of pioneers like Alice Waters, sitting off to one side of the podium, as well as dozens of other food pioneers. Reichl remembered the first time she walked into \u003ca href=\"http://cheeseboardcollective.coop/\">The Cheeseboard\u003c/a>, in Berkeley and was handed a taste of \u003ca href=\"http://www.laurachenel.com/\">Laura Chenel\u003c/a>'s Sonoma-made fresh goat cheese. Reichl lived on it all that summer, and knew that she had to meet the woman making something so new (to American tastes) and so delicious. Then there was \"Artists of the Earth,\" an article she wrote for California magazine in the early 1980s, profiling nine men and women making a difference in the food world and beyond. \"They are some of California's most valuable resources,\" she wrote then, \"...perfectionists who work very hard not because they expect to get rich but simply because they expect to get the best.\" \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Walking through Chino Ranch with Alice a few years later, she was amazed at the quality of produce surrounding them. Corn so sweet it needed no cooking. Strawberries so intensely fragrant that every fellow traveler on the small plane she and Alice were taking from San Diego to Oakland came up and begged for a berry off the flats they were carrying in their laps. \"Every person said, 'I forgot strawberries could smell like that! Please, can I just have one?'\" she recounted. \"And I watched Alice give away that night's dessert for \u003ca href=\"http://www.chezpanisse.com\">Chez Panisse\u003c/a>, because how could she say no?\" \u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\"Back then, I never could have dreamed how huge the change was going to be.

Reichl, who now runs the specialty food (and content) site \u003ca href=\"http://www.gilttaste.com/\">Gilt Taste\u003c/a>, was on hand with a keen appetite, even after a late-night dinner with Alice and friends at Locanda in the Mission. Already, she's tried the chilaquiles and shrimp ceviche at the Primavera market stand, and tells me, joyfully, of the \"best breakfast sandwich\" she's ever had, from \u003ca href=\"http://www.4505meats.com\">4505 Meats\u003c/a>: a soft, buttery brioche bun piled with a maple-bacon sausage patty, an oozy-centered fried egg, and a frizz of snappy peppercress. Speaking of her talk the previous night, she laughed at the thought of trying to profile just eight makers now. \"At the time, it was hard to find even eight people, enough to write about. I had to include a produce distributor, a guy who was raising pigs and lambs for Chez Panisse. Now, that would be ridiculous. You'd have to write an encyclopedia!\" \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If anything, she thinks we're underestimating the strength and staying power of the artisan movement. Already, the food makers' landscape has changed drastically in just the past five years. In the next five, ten years, what will it look like? \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2012/01/KathrynLukasFarmhouseCulture560.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2012/01/KathrynLukasFarmhouseCulture560.jpg\" alt=\"Kathryn Lukas of Farmhouse Culture\" title=\"Kathryn Lukas of Farmhouse Culture\" width=\"560\" height=\"420\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-37688\">\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>Kathryn Lukas of Farmhouse Culture\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There's no doubt, though, that the movement is fostering ever-closer relationships between chefs, makers and farmers. These products, from basil vodka to sea-vegetable kraut, are only as good as their raw ingredients. Recounting a cabbage blight that decimated the California crop last year, Farmhouse Culture founder Kathryn Lukas quoted Let's Be Frank's Larry Bain, laughing, \"It's hard when you're in business with God.\"\u003c/p>\n\n",

Reichl, who now runs the specialty food (and content) site \u003ca href=\"http://www.gilttaste.com/\">Gilt Taste\u003c/a>, was on hand with a keen appetite, even after a late-night dinner with Alice and friends at Locanda in the Mission. Already, she's tried the chilaquiles and shrimp ceviche at the Primavera market stand, and tells me, joyfully, of the \"best breakfast sandwich\" she's ever had, from \u003ca href=\"http://www.4505meats.com\">4505 Meats\u003c/a>: a soft, buttery brioche bun piled with a maple-bacon sausage patty, an oozy-centered fried egg, and a frizz of snappy peppercress. Speaking of her talk the previous night, she laughed at the thought of trying to profile just eight makers now. \"At the time, it was hard to find even eight people, enough to write about. I had to include a produce distributor, a guy who was raising pigs and lambs for Chez Panisse. Now, that would be ridiculous. You'd have to write an encyclopedia!\" \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If anything, she thinks we're underestimating the strength and staying power of the artisan movement.

Hoping and hoping that one day on my stroll, the doors would just magically swing wide open. Sometimes I'd actually force myself to go a few weeks without checking, convinced that the next time I did, a new bustling cafe would be livening up the sleepy morning stretch of Grand Avenue that I call home. You see, for all of the cafes and amenities we have, we don't have an independent morning spot with great espresso, coffee and interesting morning pastries. Until now. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now let's get one thing straight: Charlie Hallowell, chef/owner of both \u003ca href=\"http://www.pizzaiolooakland.com/\">Pizzaiolo\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"http://bootandshoeservice.com/\">Boot and Shoe Service\u003c/a>, doesn't do things half-way (and thus, I think, the wait for the perfect time to take that kraft paper down from the windows). From wonderful fresh salads and delightful wood-fired pizzas at Pizzaiolo to those fantastic salty olives and strong cocktails (and pizza, of course) at Boot and Shoe Service -- there are innumerable reasons to visit both. And since moving to Oakland I find myself frequenting one of the sturdy wooden tables at Pizzaiolo drinking a macchiato, nibbling on a cinnamoney donut hole and stealing internet from the tenants upstairs. The morning service there is lovely and the locals have caught on: it's packed. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And finally: the new cafe adjoining Boot and Shoe Service, formally DiBartolo Cafe, opened last week and looks pretty promising. In short time, I predict, it too will be packed. Like Pizzaiolo's morning service, there are a variety of simple pastries and morning cakes and lots of seating (they are keeping it wi-fi free for now) at counters along the whole periphery of the space. The inside is spare and clean with high ceilings, brick walls, and fantastic light. Hallowell has opted to serve \u003ca href=\"http://sightglasscoffee.com/\">Sightglass coffee\u003c/a>, and the staff and other customers I chatted with seem thrilled with the decision for a few reasons. It's local, it's excellent, and it's not \u003ca href=\"http://www.bluebottlecoffee.net/\">Blue Bottle\u003c/a> (which, while fantastic, is ubiquitous these days). \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/07/making-coffee1.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/07/making-coffee1.jpg\" alt=\"making coffee at boot and shoe service\" title=\"making coffee at boot and shoe service\" width=\"500\" height=\"296\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-30673\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You can find a short list of coffee drinks including lattes, cappuccinos, macchiatos and the like along with a special mocha made with a housemade chocolate consisting largely of dark \u003ca href=\"http://www.valrhona.com/us\">Valrhona\u003c/a> chocolate. If you're into drip coffee they brew one cup at a time, taking just as much time and care with a simple cup of coffee as they do a more involved espresso drink. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/07/boot-granola1.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/07/boot-granola1.jpg\" alt=\"boot and shoe\" title=\"boot and shoe granola\" width=\"500\" height=\"461\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-30668\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They also offer housemade granola in a bowl with fruit and milk/yogurt or in a big ball jar for $10 ($1 of which is a deposit for the jar). I haven't had a chance to try the granola yet, but the staff insists it's the best you'll ever have. It's on my to-do list this week. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/07/boot-and-shoe-coffee-menupastries1.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/07/boot-and-shoe-coffee-menupastries1.jpg\" alt=\"boot and shoe coffee menu pastries\" title=\"boot and shoe coffee menu pastries\" width=\"500\" height=\"296\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-30669\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What I have tried are their perfect cappuccinos, crumbly currants scones and buttery almond cake. The pastries are all done in-house by the pastry chef at Pizzaiolo, so if you're familiar with the carefully curated sweets there, you'll feel right at home. I've always been a big fan of their scones because they're not huge and hefty, but rather: light, simple, and seasonal. And the almond cake is the perfect morning compliment to a cup of strong coffee: not too sweet, buttery, with a nice sweet layer of almonds on top. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/07/IMG_78971.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/07/IMG_78971.jpg\" alt=\"morning cake\" title=\"morning cake\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-30671\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While they're not currently rolling out any special savory items midday, there are plans to do a variety of breads and spreads and more fixed-menu sandwiches in the future. So stay tuned. And another exciting aspect of the space to come: there are plans to open in the evenings for espresso beverages, plated desserts, and cocktails. The idea is that it can serve as a spillover for folks waiting for a table at Boot and Shoe Service but can also be a new spot to come and snag a cocktail or have an evening espresso before a stroll around the lake. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So they're off to a great start. And like all great starts, there's a definitive reason to go and check it out \u003cem>now\u003c/em>, but there's also promise in what's to come down the line. A most welcome addition to the neighborhood. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://bootandshoeservice.com/\">Boot and Shoe Service\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n3308 Grand Avenue\u003cbr>\nOakland, CA 94610\u003cbr>\n(510) 763-2668\u003cbr>\nHours: 7 a.m.-3 p.m. everyday\u003c/p>\n\n",

Hoping and hoping that one day on my stroll, the doors would just magically swing wide open. Sometimes I'd actually force myself to go a few weeks without checking, convinced that the next time I did, a new bustling cafe would be livening up the sleepy morning stretch of Grand Avenue that I call home. You see, for all of the cafes and amenities we have, we don't have an independent morning spot with great espresso, coffee and interesting morning pastries. Until now. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now let's get one thing straight: Charlie Hallowell, chef/owner of both \u003ca href=\"http://www.pizzaiolooakland.com/\">Pizzaiolo\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"http://bootandshoeservice.com/\">Boot and Shoe Service\u003c/a>, doesn't do things half-way (and thus, I think, the wait for the perfect time to take that kraft paper down from the windows). From wonderful fresh salads and delightful wood-fired pizzas at Pizzaiolo to those fantastic salty olives and strong cocktails (and pizza, of course) at Boot and Shoe Service -- there are innumerable reasons to visit both. And since moving to Oakland I find myself frequenting one of the sturdy wooden tables at Pizzaiolo drinking a macchiato, nibbling on a cinnamoney donut hole and stealing internet from the tenants upstairs. The morning service there is lovely and the locals have caught on: it's packed. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And finally: the new cafe adjoining Boot and Shoe Service, formally DiBartolo Cafe, opened last week and looks pretty promising. In short time, I predict, it too will be packed. Like Pizzaiolo's morning service, there are a variety of simple pastries and morning cakes and lots of seating (they are keeping it wi-fi free for now) at counters along the whole periphery of the space. The inside is spare and clean with high ceilings, brick walls, and fantastic light. Hallowell has opted to serve \u003ca href=\"http://sightglasscoffee.com/\">Sightglass coffee\u003c/a>, and the staff and other customers I chatted with seem thrilled with the decision for a few reasons. It's local, it's excellent, and it's not \u003ca href=\"http://www.bluebottlecoffee.net/\">Blue Bottle\u003c/a> (which, while fantastic, is ubiquitous these days). \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/07/making-coffee1.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/07/making-coffee1.jpg\" alt=\"making coffee at boot and shoe service\" title=\"making coffee at boot and shoe service\" width=\"500\" height=\"296\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-30673\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

If you're into drip coffee they brew one cup at a time, taking just as much time and care with a simple cup of coffee as they do a more involved espresso drink. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/07/boot-granola1.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/07/boot-granola1.jpg\" alt=\"boot and shoe\" title=\"boot and shoe granola\" width=\"500\" height=\"461\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-30668\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They also offer housemade granola in a bowl with fruit and milk/yogurt or in a big ball jar for $10 ($1 of which is a deposit for the jar). I haven't had a chance to try the granola yet, but the staff insists it's the best you'll ever have. It's on my to-do list this week. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/07/boot-and-shoe-coffee-menupastries1.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/07/boot-and-shoe-coffee-menupastries1.jpg\" alt=\"boot and shoe coffee menu pastries\" title=\"boot and shoe coffee menu pastries\" width=\"500\" height=\"296\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-30669\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What I have tried are their perfect cappuccinos, crumbly currants scones and buttery almond cake. The pastries are all done in-house by the pastry chef at Pizzaiolo, so if you're familiar with the carefully curated sweets there, you'll feel right at home. I've always been a big fan of their scones because they're not huge and hefty, but rather: light, simple, and seasonal. And the almond cake is the perfect morning compliment to a cup of strong coffee: not too sweet, buttery, with a nice sweet layer of almonds on top. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/07/IMG_78971.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/07/IMG_78971.jpg\" alt=\"morning cake\" title=\"morning cake\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-30671\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While they're not currently rolling out any special savory items midday, there are plans to do a variety of breads and spreads and more fixed-menu sandwiches in the future. So stay tuned. And another exciting aspect of the space to come: there are plans to open in the evenings for espresso beverages, plated desserts, and cocktails. The idea is that it can serve as a spillover for folks waiting for a table at Boot and Shoe Service but can also be a new spot to come and snag a cocktail or have an evening espresso before a stroll around the lake. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So they're off to a great start. And like all great starts, there's a definitive reason to go and check it out \u003cem>now\u003c/em>, but there's also promise in what's to come down the line.

Here’s some of what I saw:\u003c/strong>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Asian food\u003c/strong> is still where food purveyors turn to for new product ideas, but there’s a twist this year. The new darlings of the moment are Indian and Korean foods. Brands like \u003ca href=\"http://www.sukhis.com/\">Sukhi's\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"http://www.tandoorchef.com/\">Tandoor Chef\u003c/a> were making sure everyone in the area had a taste of their frozen Indian food entrees and meals. And \u003ca href=\"http://www.anniechun.com/\">Annie Chun's\u003c/a>, which is a brand that traditionally focuses on Chinese meals, was branching out into Korean marinades and meal kits. \u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Asian snacks\u003c/strong> also tried to make a splash at this year’s event. Items like a black sesame candy, which is a popular snack in China, took an American spin by getting a good coating of dark chocolate, courtesy of the folks at \u003ca href=\"http://www.bissingers.com/\">Bissinger’s\u003c/a>. And rice crackers and candies are usually something you’ll find at a typical Asian market, but vendors were trying to get them into the American mainstream.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Tea\u003c/strong> is still the hot commodity as far as beverages go, but gone are the white and green tea infusions. This year I saw a plethora of traditional herbal teas fused with fruit flavors to create unusual and creative tea combos like Blackcurrant and Cardamom, Milk Oolong and Apricot and Honey from the folks at Novato’s \u003ca href=\"http://www.republicoftea.com/\">Republic of Tea\u003c/a>, as well as more infusions like Chamomile and Citrus and Organic Café Orange from the San Rafael company, \u003ca href=\"http://www.mightyleaf.com/\">Mighty Leaf\u003c/a>. \u003c/li>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/01/republic-tea500.jpg\" alt=\"The Republic of Tea\" title=\"The Republic of Tea\" width=\"500\" height=\"392\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-21794\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Candy\u003c/strong> is a trend that will NEVER go away.

Afterward, I started wondering how many other coffee roasters there were in the Bay Area. I knew we had a few -- from \u003ca href=\"http://www.bluebottlecoffee.net/\">Blue Bottle\u003c/a> to \u003ca href=\"http://www.caffetrieste.com/\">Caffé Trieste\u003c/a> -- but was surprised to find that we have a long and impressive history as a roasting capital. From James Folger selling freshly roasted beans to dusty and thirsty miners during the gold rush, to the new wave of single-origin roasters like \u003ca href=\"http://www.ritualroasters.com/\">Ritual \u003c/a>and \u003ca href=\"http://www.fourbarrelcoffee.com/\">Four Barrel\u003c/a>, the Bay Area has been at the epicenter of coffee roasting in the United States for over 160 years. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The story of James Folger is one of those classic gold rush tales where an entrepreneur makes his fortune selling a prized commodity instead of mining for gold. Because James was only 15 when he journeyed to the area with his brothers, he was deemed too young to mine. Lucky for him no one thought he was too young to sell coffee, which is what he did in the mining fields out near Nevada City. He then made his way further west where he worked in the first San Francisco coffee roastery on Powell Street, which he eventually bought and turned into the mega \u003ca href=\"http://www.folgers.com/\">Folgers\u003c/a>. \u003ca href=\"http://www.hillsbros.com/\">Hills Brothers\u003c/a> -- another local company -- was also part of that first wave of coffee purveyors in the U.S. making cups of American Joe for our grandparents and great grandparents. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's an understatement to say that the 50s and 60s were a time of change for San Francisco, but what you may not know is that coffee was an integral part of the culture dynamic at that time. Giovanni Giotta opened \u003ca href=\"http://www.caffetrieste.com/\">Caffé Trieste\u003c/a>, which started selling lovely dark European roasts in North Beach. In addition to becoming the local purveyor of coffee to the many Italian families in the area, his café was also the hot spot for people like \u003ca href=\"http://www.beatmuseum.org/kerouac/jackkerouac.html\">Jack Kerouac\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"http://www.poets.org/poet.php/prmPID/8\">Allen Ginsberg\u003c/a>, and \u003ca href=\"http://www.citylights.com/ferlinghetti/\">Lawrence Ferlinghetti\u003c/a> (who, I hear, is still a regular). Where would American poetry and fiction be without Papa Giotta's coffee? It's also reported that Francis Ford Coppola wrote most of \u003ca href=\"http://www.scenariusze.stopklatka.pl/pdf/Godfather.pdf\">The Godfather script\u003c/a> (pdf) there. Then, in the 60s, \u003ca href=\"http://www.peets.com/who_we_are/history_vine.asp\">Alfred Peet started his now legendary store in North Berkeley\u003c/a>, where he roasted and sold small-batch single-origin and blended coffees to all those students, flower children, and protesters. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Blue Bottle Coffee and Sightglass Coffee Bar and Roastery\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n\u003ca data-flickr-embed=\"true\" href=\"https://www.flickr.com/photos/bayareabites/albums/72157624481318373\" title=\"Bay Area Coffee Roasters\">\u003cimg src=\"https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4144/4839154993_a09bc94253_b.jpg\" width=\"1000\" height=\"669\" alt=\"Bay Area Coffee Roasters\">\u003c/a>\u003cscript async src=\"//embedr.flickr.com/assets/client-code.js\" charset=\"utf-8\">\u003c/script>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>Photos by Wendy Goodfriend\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And, although you can still enjoy those rich dark roasts provided by Caffé Trieste and Peet's today, the Bay Area is once again at the forefront of coffee roasting in the U.S., this time to a new generation of roasters who are myopically focused on finding the finest single-origin coffees, paying a more than fair price for the beans, and then roasting them for their own unique qualities. These roasts are often lighter than what you'd find elsewhere, the philosophy being that roasting for each bean's unique flavors reveals the innate natural essence inside them. Much like wine, hints of spices, fruits and herbs emerge under the right conditions. When I heard this, I thought fine, but really how much of these can you taste? It wasn't until I had an amazing cup of hand-dripped \u003ca href=\"http://www.ritualroasters.com/\">Ritual\u003c/a> coffee at \u003ca href=\"http://remedyoakland.com/\">Remedy\u003c/a>-- a new café in Oakland -- that I became a true believer. That cup of coffee was actually so good I decided not to add my normal allotment of milk and just sat there, savoring the subtle hints of plum and chocolate arising from my cup.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This new wave of coffee roasters seems a direct response to the Frappuccino world of Starbucks. From baristas to roasters, people associated with these cafes and roasting facilities seem obsessed with the craft and art of making the perfect cup of coffee. Whipped cream and hazelnut flavoring have no place in these establishments -- these places are in business to sell coffee to customers who can appreciate the difference between a single-origin Guatamalan and a Sumatran blend. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many are neighborhood cafes that roast on the premises. Companies like \u003ca href=\"http://www.bluebottlecoffee.net/\">Blue Bottle\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"http://www.ritualroasters.com/\">Ritual Roasters\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"http://www.fourbarrelcoffee.com/\">Four Barrel Coffee\u003c/a>, and \u003ca href=\"http://www.sightglasscoffee.com/\">Sightglass Coffee Bar and Roastery\u003c/a> -- which are the principal third-wave roasters in San Francisco and the East Bay -- all roast on site and offer espresso drinks, hand-drip coffees (usually made in a \u003ca href=\"http://shop.ritualcoffeeroasters.com/products/v-60\">Hario brewer\u003c/a> or even one of those $20,000 Clover machines) and beans by the pound. Oh, and rest assured that you are drinking seriously fresh coffee. Blue Bottle, Ritual and Sightglass roast daily and sell their beans within 48 hours, while Four Barrel roasts 5 times a week and sells fresh beans within 1-4 days of roasting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you're interested in learning about coffee, you can take part in tastings, or cuppings as they're referred to, where you can talk to some very informed people about where the beans come from and how they're roasted, while of course getting to taste the merchandise yourself by slurping steeped coffee with a spoon (apparently this is the tried and true method of cupping coffee, but be sure not to wear your favorite outfit as there's a good chance you'll spill some on yourself). And, if you don't live near one of these coffee shops, most sell wholesale beans so the chances are pretty good that the independent cafe down the street, or a restaurant nearby, carries a local roast. You can also purchase these coffees at grocery stores -- \u003ca href=\"http://www.wholefoodsmarket.com/\">Whole Foods\u003c/a> seems to have the biggest local selection -- or even online directly through each company's web site.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I was amazed to learn that Blue Bottle, Ritual and Four Barrel have actually created the budget and resources to seek out relationships with farmers all over the world to grow their beans. When I called Four Barrel, the owner was in Indonesia, visiting a farmer. These companies seem incredibly dedicated to finding the highest quality beans possible. Yet what's equally important to me as a consumer is that they are also dedicated to paying at least the fair trade price, and often far above. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Following is a list of some of our local roasters.

Afterward, I started wondering how many other coffee roasters there were in the Bay Area. I knew we had a few -- from \u003ca href=\"http://www.bluebottlecoffee.net/\">Blue Bottle\u003c/a> to \u003ca href=\"http://www.caffetrieste.com/\">Caffé Trieste\u003c/a> -- but was surprised to find that we have a long and impressive history as a roasting capital. From James Folger selling freshly roasted beans to dusty and thirsty miners during the gold rush, to the new wave of single-origin roasters like \u003ca href=\"http://www.ritualroasters.com/\">Ritual \u003c/a>and \u003ca href=\"http://www.fourbarrelcoffee.com/\">Four Barrel\u003c/a>, the Bay Area has been at the epicenter of coffee roasting in the United States for over 160 years. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The story of James Folger is one of those classic gold rush tales where an entrepreneur makes his fortune selling a prized commodity instead of mining for gold. Because James was only 15 when he journeyed to the area with his brothers, he was deemed too young to mine. Lucky for him no one thought he was too young to sell coffee, which is what he did in the mining fields out near Nevada City. He then made his way further west where he worked in the first San Francisco coffee roastery on Powell Street, which he eventually bought and turned into the mega \u003ca href=\"http://www.folgers.com/\">Folgers\u003c/a>. \u003ca href=\"http://www.hillsbros.com/\">Hills Brothers\u003c/a> -- another local company -- was also part of that first wave of coffee purveyors in the U.S. making cups of American Joe for our grandparents and great grandparents. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's an understatement to say that the 50s and 60s were a time of change for San Francisco, but what you may not know is that coffee was an integral part of the culture dynamic at that time. Giovanni Giotta opened \u003ca href=\"http://www.caffetrieste.com/\">Caffé Trieste\u003c/a>, which started selling lovely dark European roasts in North Beach. In addition to becoming the local purveyor of coffee to the many Italian families in the area, his café was also the hot spot for people like \u003ca href=\"http://www.beatmuseum.org/kerouac/jackkerouac.html\">Jack Kerouac\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"http://www.poets.org/poet.php/prmPID/8\">Allen Ginsberg\u003c/a>, and \u003ca href=\"http://www.citylights.com/ferlinghetti/\">Lawrence Ferlinghetti\u003c/a> (who, I hear, is still a regular). Where would American poetry and fiction be without Papa Giotta's coffee? It's also reported that Francis Ford Coppola wrote most of \u003ca href=\"http://www.scenariusze.stopklatka.pl/pdf/Godfather.pdf\">The Godfather script\u003c/a> (pdf) there. Then, in the 60s, \u003ca href=\"http://www.peets.com/who_we_are/history_vine.asp\">Alfred Peet started his now legendary store in North Berkeley\u003c/a>, where he roasted and sold small-batch single-origin and blended coffees to all those students, flower children, and protesters. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Blue Bottle Coffee and Sightglass Coffee Bar and Roastery\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n\u003ca data-flickr-embed=\"true\" href=\"https://www.flickr.com/photos/bayareabites/albums/72157624481318373\" title=\"Bay Area Coffee Roasters\">\u003cimg src=\"https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4144/4839154993_a09bc94253_b.jpg\" width=\"1000\" height=\"669\" alt=\"Bay Area Coffee Roasters\">\u003c/a>\u003cscript async src=\"//embedr.flickr.com/assets/client-code.js\" charset=\"utf-8\">\u003c/script>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>Photos by Wendy Goodfriend\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Blue Bottle, Ritual and Sightglass roast daily and sell their beans within 48 hours, while Four Barrel roasts 5 times a week and sells fresh beans within 1-4 days of roasting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you're interested in learning about coffee, you can take part in tastings, or cuppings as they're referred to, where you can talk to some very informed people about where the beans come from and how they're roasted, while of course getting to taste the merchandise yourself by slurping steeped coffee with a spoon (apparently this is the tried and true method of cupping coffee, but be sure not to wear your favorite outfit as there's a good chance you'll spill some on yourself). And, if you don't live near one of these coffee shops, most sell wholesale beans so the chances are pretty good that the independent cafe down the street, or a restaurant nearby, carries a local roast. You can also purchase these coffees at grocery stores -- \u003ca href=\"http://www.wholefoodsmarket.com/\">Whole Foods\u003c/a> seems to have the biggest local selection -- or even online directly through each company's web site.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I was amazed to learn that Blue Bottle, Ritual and Four Barrel have actually created the budget and resources to seek out relationships with farmers all over the world to grow their beans. When I called Four Barrel, the owner was in Indonesia, visiting a farmer. These companies seem incredibly dedicated to finding the highest quality beans possible. Yet what's equally important to me as a consumer is that they are also dedicated to paying at least the fair trade price, and often far above. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Following is a list of some of our local roasters.

As someone who drinks Peet's Italian Roast every morning, I was excited to see how this home-grown Bay Area company handled and roasted their coffee beans and so jumped at the chance to get a peek inside.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The outing was born out of a local school fundraising effort. Every year our school district has a party and auction to raise money for programs that the State of California's ever-depleted funds no longer cover. Unlike when I was a kid, our school budgets are now dependent on parent fundraising efforts to afford teacher's aide salaries, music and art supplies, library funds and so many other worthwhile programs. My neighbor and friend, Shawn Conway, who is the Chief Supply Chain Officer at Peet's Coffee & Tea, donated a private tour of the roasting plant for the silent auction. After some pretty heavy bidding for this item, my friend Betsy's brother Tom won out and I was then invited to attend. Lucky me!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2010/06/the-packaging-and-roasting-floor.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-14776\" title=\"the packaging and roasting floor\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2010/06/the-packaging-and-roasting-floor.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\">\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>Peets Coffee & Tea Roasting and Packaging Floor\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So last Friday, six of us gathered at Peet's Coffee & Tea's Roastery in Alameda for our behind-the-scenes look at coffee roasting. Peet's main business offices remain in Emeryville, where they've been for years, but in 2007 they opened this new roasting and packaging plant specially designed for their small-batch, roast-to-order business model. Most of the building is taken up by enormous stacks of green coffee beans in burlap bags, packaging machinery and the roasting floor itself, although there is also a beautiful test barista kitchen and some offices. The warehouse, as you may imagine, is heavily perfumed with the glorious smell of roasting coffee beans. With a lovely view of the bay, it seemed like a pretty great place to spend your day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Shawn and his colleague Maurice \"Mo\" Sardella gave us a genuinely informative and entertaining tour. I learned a great deal about coffee beans, from where they are grown and how they're bought, to what Peet's does to ready them for your morning cup of coffee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Here are some fun facts that I discovered:\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Peet's Roast-to-Order Business\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nI had no idea that Peet's has a roast-to-order business model. What does roast-to-order mean? Basically, the warehouse starts and ends each day with clean shelves. They never store roasted coffee in their warehouse. There are eight, highly-trained roasters who start their day at 2:30 a.m. Like bakers, they need to begin their shifts in the wee hours of the morning so they can roast enough pre-ordered beans to be trucked or shipped out later that same day. Each batch is shipped within two hours of roasting, allowing the company to provide freshly-roasted beans to customers. The decision to not store roasted beans -- and therefore not hold any actual inventory -- isn't the most efficient or cost-effective way to run a supply chain business, but Peet's feels it ensures the quality of their product.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I also learned that Peet's has a thriving \u003ca href=\"http://www.peets.com/default.asp?rdir=1&ftv=n\">Internet direct-sales business\u003c/a>. Did you know you could order Peet's to be delivered to your house? I didn't. According to Shawn, Peet's air mails coffee and tea orders to people all over the world, including soldiers in Afghanistan and Iraq, on a daily basis. I wish I would have known about this when my twins were infants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And then there's the tea. Although our tour was mostly focused on coffee, we also were able to see that the warehouse has a special section (far from the coffee roasters so the smells do not permeate the fragile tea leaves) dedicated to the handling, blending and packaging of tea. This section wasn't part of our main tour, but I did see that each tin is hand-packed and quality checked, and these are also shipped out daily.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>The Roasting Process\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nUp close and personal, the roasting process is pretty amazing. The back of the warehouse is full of beans from all over the world -- sacks from Guatemala, Kona, Sumatra, Kenya, and every other coffee-growing location are piled high. I felt very small standing under these mountains of coffee and had the feeling it wouldn't be the best place to be standing in an earthquake.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2010/06/bags-and-bags-of-coffee-beans.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-14777\" title=\"bags and bags of coffee beans\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2010/06/bags-and-bags-of-coffee-beans.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"299\">\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>Bags of Green Coffee Beans in the Warehouse\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I asked if roasters specialize in working with a specific bean, but was told that after years of apprenticing and training, each roaster becomes an expert at handling various types of beans for all different blends and single-origin coffees. I also learned that like making chocolate or cheese, roasting coffee is an artisan craft. When we watched one roaster handling a batch of Guatemala, he continually pulled a sample from the heated drum. These guys (and yes, they are all \"guys\") use smell, sight and sound to discern if a batch is ready. They continually lean over their samples to smell the beans, listen for popping (apparently a certain number of pops means a great deal) and look to analyze the color and sheen of the beans. When we were watching one roaster, Shawn pointed out that the computer showed that his batches were all within 4 seconds of each other, but what was amazing was that the roaster was not actually looking at that computer at all. He was just naturally able to make consistent batches using his senses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Here's a clip of the beans coming out of the roaster.\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cobject classid=\"d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000\" width=\"480\" height=\"385\" codebase=\"http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0\">\u003cparam name=\"allowFullScreen\" value=\"true\">\u003cparam name=\"allowscriptaccess\" value=\"always\">\u003cparam name=\"src\" value=\"http://www.youtube.com/v/PSrjD_KKKZs&hl=en_US&fs=1&rel=0\">\u003cparam name=\"allowfullscreen\" value=\"true\">\u003cembed type=\"application/x-shockwave-flash\" width=\"480\" height=\"385\" src=\"http://www.youtube.com/v/PSrjD_KKKZs&hl=en_US&fs=1&rel=0\" allowscriptaccess=\"always\" allowfullscreen=\"true\">\u003c/embed>\u003c/object>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>The Life of a Bean\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nLike cherries and peaches, coffee beans are a type of fruit, and so their freshness degrades over time. The deterioration process starts after roasting, which is why Peet's ships their beans the day they are roasted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The stages of the life of a Peet's bean -- from sitting green in a burlap sack to getting poured into a coffee cup -- has some crucial steps:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Peet's roasting facility has 1/2 million pounds of green coffee at any given time. These beans are cleaned, weighed and sent to one of 48 silos where they wait to be roasted.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Beans are then roasted in small batches (the size of which is confidential).

Every year our school district has a party and auction to raise money for programs that the State of California's ever-depleted funds no longer cover. Unlike when I was a kid, our school budgets are now dependent on parent fundraising efforts to afford teacher's aide salaries, music and art supplies, library funds and so many other worthwhile programs. My neighbor and friend, Shawn Conway, who is the Chief Supply Chain Officer at Peet's Coffee & Tea, donated a private tour of the roasting plant for the silent auction. After some pretty heavy bidding for this item, my friend Betsy's brother Tom won out and I was then invited to attend.

Peet's main business offices remain in Emeryville, where they've been for years, but in 2007 they opened this new roasting and packaging plant specially designed for their small-batch, roast-to-order business model. Most of the building is taken up by enormous stacks of green coffee beans in burlap bags, packaging machinery and the roasting floor itself, although there is also a beautiful test barista kitchen and some offices. The warehouse, as you may imagine, is heavily perfumed with the glorious smell of roasting coffee beans. With a lovely view of the bay, it seemed like a pretty great place to spend your day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

I learned a great deal about coffee beans, from where they are grown and how they're bought, to what Peet's does to ready them for your morning cup of coffee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Here are some fun facts that I discovered:\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Peet's Roast-to-Order Business\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nI had no idea that Peet's has a roast-to-order business model. What does roast-to-order mean? Basically, the warehouse starts and ends each day with clean shelves. They never store roasted coffee in their warehouse. There are eight, highly-trained roasters who start their day at 2:30 a.m. Like bakers, they need to begin their shifts in the wee hours of the morning so they can roast enough pre-ordered beans to be trucked or shipped out later that same day. Each batch is shipped within two hours of roasting, allowing the company to provide freshly-roasted beans to customers. The decision to not store roasted beans -- and therefore not hold any actual inventory -- isn't the most efficient or cost-effective way to run a supply chain business, but Peet's feels it ensures the quality of their product.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I also learned that Peet's has a thriving \u003ca href=\"http://www.peets.com/default.asp?rdir=1&ftv=n\">Internet direct-sales business\u003c/a>. Did you know you could order Peet's to be delivered to your house? I didn't. According to Shawn, Peet's air mails coffee and tea orders to people all over the world, including soldiers in Afghanistan and Iraq, on a daily basis. I wish I would have known about this when my twins were infants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And then there's the tea. Although our tour was mostly focused on coffee, we also were able to see that the warehouse has a special section (far from the coffee roasters so the smells do not permeate the fragile tea leaves) dedicated to the handling, blending and packaging of tea. This section wasn't part of our main tour, but I did see that each tin is hand-packed and quality checked, and these are also shipped out daily.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>The Roasting Process\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nUp close and personal, the roasting process is pretty amazing. The back of the warehouse is full of beans from all over the world -- sacks from Guatemala, Kona, Sumatra, Kenya, and every other coffee-growing location are piled high. I felt very small standing under these mountains of coffee and had the feeling it wouldn't be the best place to be standing in an earthquake.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2010/06/bags-and-bags-of-coffee-beans.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-14777\" title=\"bags and bags of coffee beans\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2010/06/bags-and-bags-of-coffee-beans.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"299\">\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>Bags of Green Coffee Beans in the Warehouse\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I asked if roasters specialize in working with a specific bean, but was told that after years of apprenticing and training, each roaster becomes an expert at handling various types of beans for all different blends and single-origin coffees. I also learned that like making chocolate or cheese, roasting coffee is an artisan craft. When we watched one roaster handling a batch of Guatemala, he continually pulled a sample from the heated drum. These guys (and yes, they are all \"guys\") use smell, sight and sound to discern if a batch is ready. They continually lean over their samples to smell the beans, listen for popping (apparently a certain number of pops means a great deal) and look to analyze the color and sheen of the beans. When we were watching one roaster, Shawn pointed out that the computer showed that his batches were all within 4 seconds of each other, but what was amazing was that the roaster was not actually looking at that computer at all. He was just naturally able to make consistent batches using his senses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Here's a clip of the beans coming out of the roaster.\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cobject classid=\"d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000\" width=\"480\" height=\"385\" codebase=\"http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0\">\u003cparam name=\"allowFullScreen\" value=\"true\">\u003cparam name=\"allowscriptaccess\" value=\"always\">\u003cparam name=\"src\" value=\"http://www.youtube.com/v/PSrjD_KKKZs&hl=en_US&fs=1&rel=0\">\u003cparam name=\"allowfullscreen\" value=\"true\">\u003cembed type=\"application/x-shockwave-flash\" width=\"480\" height=\"385\" src=\"http://www.youtube.com/v/PSrjD_KKKZs&hl=en_US&fs=1&rel=0\" allowscriptaccess=\"always\" allowfullscreen=\"true\">\u003c/embed>\u003c/object>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>The Life of a Bean\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nLike cherries and peaches, coffee beans are a type of fruit, and so their freshness degrades over time. The deterioration process starts after roasting, which is why Peet's ships their beans the day they are roasted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The stages of the life of a Peet's bean -- from sitting green in a burlap sack to getting poured into a coffee cup -- has some crucial steps:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Peet's roasting facility has 1/2 million pounds of green coffee at any given time. These beans are cleaned, weighed and sent to one of 48 silos where they wait to be roasted.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Beans are then roasted in small batches (the size of which is confidential). Each batch is attended to by a roaster before it gets sucked into a Willy Wonka-type tube (\u003ca href=\"http://www.whatever-dude.com/wdimages/fouffposts/will004.jpg\">think Augustus Gloop\u003c/a>) and is then poured into an enclosed cart.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>After roasting, each batch of beans is tasted and evaluated to ensure it meets quality standards.

And while I'm often alone (thanks, mom and co.) let's clear up the cyclist myth once and for all: yes, it can get a little hairy on a sunny Sunday, but for the most part the cafe is a great locals spot--a modern, airy space where folks meet up with friends, bring in their laptops to get a little work done, and have quick meetings over the best coffee in town. The space itself, a 120-year old brick building, has concrete floors, massive windows, and exposed brick walls. It honestly just feels good in there. It's conducive for coming in off the busy street and taking a legitimate break. I bring in a book and find that all of a sudden I've read fifty pages without the urge to check my iphone.

But for me, the real draw are the pastries and sweets that Tera bakes each day for the cafe. The pop-tart has been a standard item from almost the very beginning. It's a relatively thin, crispy treat made with polenta so it has a delightful golden color and simultaneously flirts with both sweet and savory. Tera plays around with different fillings, but lately they've been doing apricot--the perfect antidote to a strong Americano. I tell you, your day will improve the second you bite into one of these. They do sell out though. I've come in a few hours too late on numerous occasions and, with hopes dashed, have had to settle on something else. Which is always a blessing in disguise as it's led me to the cinnamon-sugar muffin (or some of the locals call it the donut muffin).

While I had just planned on getting a cup of coffee and finishing the paper, I was sucked in. The thing I really appreciate about all of Tera's treats are their size. Nothing is huge, overly sweet, or doused with frosting. When I spoke with her last week, she mentioned that there are a million places you can go to get a one-pound pastry if that's what you're looking for. Cibo isn't that.

My mom has a little summer cabin in upstate New York; I’m not sure if you've been to upstate New York, but there’s not a lot of coffee going on. You can buy vacuum-sealed packs of Starbucks at the local Walmart, but it tastes like just that: vacuum-packed coffee that's been sitting on a shelf forever. My sisters and I visit over the July 4th weekend, and the caffeine situation always disappoints. Last year we made the mistake of having my Aunt Jill bring us beans in from the city. She brought Folgers. Jill will not be bringing coffee again this year. So I've decided to be proactive. I'll obviously bring some beans when I come up--probably \u003ca href=\"http://www.bluebottlecoffee.net/\">Blue Bottle\u003c/a> or \u003ca href=\"http://www.fourbarrelcoffee.com/\">Four Barrel\u003c/a> (who both do shipping, by the way) but I've been doing a little research for my mom who will be there all summer and who has resorted to those little instant sleeves of coffee. So Mom, this post's for you or for anyone who could use some good beans arriving on their doorstep.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Let's face it: coffee's come a long way from the days when the gals from Friends had their foamy latte or when picking up a bag of Sumatra on the way home from work felt pretty exotic and edgy. In his \u003ca href=\"http://www.time.com/time/nation/article/0,8599,1970653,00.html\">recent piece for Time Magazine\u003c/a>, Josh Ozersky details where we find ourselves today, the \"Third wave\" of coffee: buying prized lots of single-origin beans and roasting them less frequently, treating coffee as seasonal, and paying attention to slight nuances in bean selection and roasting technique. Essentially, the artisan roasters I'm about to discuss have left Starbucks in the dust.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And a quick side note: While I've tried some of the coffees below, I haven't sampled all of them. I've done some research and talked to coffee folks about the most highly respected roasters and what they're up to. So this post is really more about options and starting to think about coffee in a new way more than it is a \"Best of\" piece.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.intelligentsiacoffee.com/\">Intelligentsia\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.intelligentsiacoffee.com/\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2010/03/Intelligentsai.png\" alt=\"Intelligentsia\" title=\"Intelligentsia\" width=\"500\" height=\"292\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-11400\">\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>Chicago's favorite artisan roaster\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This was my go-to spot when I was in Chicago for a wedding a few summers back. The space itself is stark and modern yet simultaneously warm and inviting. And the espresso is almost sweet on its own. I was hooked. They work closely with the actual coffee producers, not just the importers or exporters, so they control quality from the beginning. While many roasters claim to do this, Intelligentsia is there each month of the year--aiming to forge a true collaboration. Intelligentsia is also known for their adamancy that coffee is seasonal, and they try and educate their consumers daily. As a mass product, so many of us are in the mind-set that good coffee is a year-round crop, and it's just not. Depending on the origin, the coffee bean is just like any piece of produce at the store: it has its high season. Intelligentsia only wants you to try it then, so you choose your coffee depending on when it was harvested. For this reason, you won't see twenty different types of coffee on their website: you'll find a few \u003ca href=\"http://www.intelligentsiacoffee.com/store/products/Blends\">blends\u003c/a>, a few \u003ca href=\"http://www.intelligentsiacoffee.com/store/products/Single+Origin\">single-origin coffees\u003c/a> and two or three \u003ca href=\"http://www.intelligentsiacoffee.com/store/products/Reserve+Coffees\">reserve coffees\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://terroircoffee.com/\">Terroir\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n\u003ca href=\"http://terroircoffee.com/\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2010/03/terroireducation.png\" alt=\"terroir education\" title=\"terroir education\" width=\"500\" height=\"328\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-11395\">\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>Terroir's impressive education page\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>George Howell's been on the fine coffee hunt since 1975--some people see him as the trailblazer for sourcing fine boutique lots around the world. The thing that makes Terroir stand out is their firm commitment not to use blends, and their belief that in the same way you wouldn't mix fine wines, you shouldn't mix fine quality coffee. Like some of the other roasters listed here, educating the consumer is part of their mission, so they've actually created an excellent \u003ca href=\"http://www.terroircoffee.com/learn/\">link page with information\u003c/a> on everything from \u003cem>How to Keep Roasted Coffee Fresh\u003c/em> to \u003cem>Principles of Brewing Coffe\u003c/em>e. In their shop, you can search by Region, Top Selling Coffees, Category (Organic, Decaf), or even pick up brewing equipment. When you click on a specific region, Terroir provides an overview of the area, and in-depth information on the coffee beans for purchase. They go farther than typical information about taste and origin, listing considerations like the type of soil, altitude, and farm size. They want the consumer to feel a similar connection with the bean that they initially felt when purchasing it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://counterculturecoffee.com/\">Counter Culture\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n\u003ca href=\"http://counterculturecoffee.com/\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2010/03/counterculture.png\" alt=\"counter culture\" title=\"counter culture\" width=\"500\" height=\"303\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-11397\">\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>Searching by region at Counter Culture\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Out of Durham, North Carolina, Counter Culture is known for their \"micro-lots\" and fabulous single-estate coffees. They don't keep much roasted coffee on hand because they're adamant about roasting to order and bagging and shipping on the same day. If you happen to live in North Carolina, they extend their mission to create cutting-edge coffee people by offering a variety of \u003ca href=\"http://counterculturecoffee.com/education/course-catalogue\">coffee courses\u003c/a>, from Beginning Espresso Lab to Milk Chemistry Lab.

My mom has a little summer cabin in upstate New York; I’m not sure if you've been to upstate New York, but there’s not a lot of coffee going on. You can buy vacuum-sealed packs of Starbucks at the local Walmart, but it tastes like just that: vacuum-packed coffee that's been sitting on a shelf forever. My sisters and I visit over the July 4th weekend, and the caffeine situation always disappoints. Last year we made the mistake of having my Aunt Jill bring us beans in from the city. She brought Folgers. Jill will not be bringing coffee again this year. So I've decided to be proactive. I'll obviously bring some beans when I come up--probably \u003ca href=\"http://www.bluebottlecoffee.net/\">Blue Bottle\u003c/a> or \u003ca href=\"http://www.fourbarrelcoffee.com/\">Four Barrel\u003c/a> (who both do shipping, by the way) but I've been doing a little research for my mom who will be there all summer and who has resorted to those little instant sleeves of coffee. So Mom, this post's for you or for anyone who could use some good beans arriving on their doorstep.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Let's face it: coffee's come a long way from the days when the gals from Friends had their foamy latte or when picking up a bag of Sumatra on the way home from work felt pretty exotic and edgy. In his \u003ca href=\"http://www.time.com/time/nation/article/0,8599,1970653,00.html\">recent piece for Time Magazine\u003c/a>, Josh Ozersky details where we find ourselves today, the \"Third wave\" of coffee: buying prized lots of single-origin beans and roasting them less frequently, treating coffee as seasonal, and paying attention to slight nuances in bean selection and roasting technique. Essentially, the artisan roasters I'm about to discuss have left Starbucks in the dust.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And a quick side note: While I've tried some of the coffees below, I haven't sampled all of them. I've done some research and talked to coffee folks about the most highly respected roasters and what they're up to. So this post is really more about options and starting to think about coffee in a new way more than it is a \"Best of\" piece.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.intelligentsiacoffee.com/\">Intelligentsia\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The space itself is stark and modern yet simultaneously warm and inviting. And the espresso is almost sweet on its own. I was hooked. They work closely with the actual coffee producers, not just the importers or exporters, so they control quality from the beginning. While many roasters claim to do this, Intelligentsia is there each month of the year--aiming to forge a true collaboration. Intelligentsia is also known for their adamancy that coffee is seasonal, and they try and educate their consumers daily. As a mass product, so many of us are in the mind-set that good coffee is a year-round crop, and it's just not. Depending on the origin, the coffee bean is just like any piece of produce at the store: it has its high season. Intelligentsia only wants you to try it then, so you choose your coffee depending on when it was harvested. For this reason, you won't see twenty different types of coffee on their website: you'll find a few \u003ca href=\"http://www.intelligentsiacoffee.com/store/products/Blends\">blends\u003c/a>, a few \u003ca href=\"http://www.intelligentsiacoffee.com/store/products/Single+Origin\">single-origin coffees\u003c/a> and two or three \u003ca href=\"http://www.intelligentsiacoffee.com/store/products/Reserve+Coffees\">reserve coffees\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://terroircoffee.com/\">Terroir\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n\u003ca href=\"http://terroircoffee.com/\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2010/03/terroireducation.png\" alt=\"terroir education\" title=\"terroir education\" width=\"500\" height=\"328\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-11395\">\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>Terroir's impressive education page\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>George Howell's been on the fine coffee hunt since 1975--some people see him as the trailblazer for sourcing fine boutique lots around the world. The thing that makes Terroir stand out is their firm commitment not to use blends, and their belief that in the same way you wouldn't mix fine wines, you shouldn't mix fine quality coffee. Like some of the other roasters listed here, educating the consumer is part of their mission, so they've actually created an excellent \u003ca href=\"http://www.terroircoffee.com/learn/\">link page with information\u003c/a> on everything from \u003cem>How to Keep Roasted Coffee Fresh\u003c/em> to \u003cem>Principles of Brewing Coffe\u003c/em>e. In their shop, you can search by Region, Top Selling Coffees, Category (Organic, Decaf), or even pick up brewing equipment. When you click on a specific region, Terroir provides an overview of the area, and in-depth information on the coffee beans for purchase. They go farther than typical information about taste and origin, listing considerations like the type of soil, altitude, and farm size. They want the consumer to feel a similar connection with the bean that they initially felt when purchasing it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://counterculturecoffee.com/\">Counter Culture\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n\u003ca href=\"http://counterculturecoffee.com/\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2010/03/counterculture.png\" alt=\"counter culture\" title=\"counter culture\" width=\"500\" height=\"303\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-11397\">\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>Searching by region at Counter Culture\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Out of Durham, North Carolina, Counter Culture is known for their \"micro-lots\" and fabulous single-estate coffees.

After a new police transparency law unsealed scores of internal affairs files, our reporters set out to examine these cases and the shadow world of police discipline. On Our Watch brings listeners into the rooms where officers are questioned and witnesses are interrogated to find out who this system is really protecting. Is it the officers, or the public they've sworn to serve?",
