KLLR Coffee Blog
Growing the KLLR Team: Welcome, Tim Hibbs!
As an organization, KLLR is built around a philosophy that the people making up the company are the crux of everything else.
Passionate people take pride in doing a good job.
Determined people stay around longer.
Talented people attract other talented people and then work together in ways that enable the whole to be greater than the sum of its parts.
Empowered people yield better results – and make tastier coffee.
Better people; better coffee.
Equipment We Love pt. 1 - Our Approach
We’ve all heard the old saying, “you can’t please all the people all of the time.” It’s true for just about everything. It’s definitely true for espresso machines.
Hardly a coffee tradeshow occurs without some new, flashy piece of gear debuting to a mixture of “ooh”s and “ah”s from the coffee trend seekers and suspicion from the barista old-schoolers.
At times, it can feel hard to keep up with.
Is it form or function?
What inevitable first-generation bugs will there be?
It’s different… is it better?
KLLR Tea pt. II - Tea at Home
KLLR Tea pt. 1 – A Primer on Tea
In a recent blog, we gave some tips for brewing coffee at home, reasoning that when we are stuck at home, or otherwise unable to get to a great café, that shouldn’t stop one from enjoying a great cup of coffee.
True that.
But there are certainly other factors that make the walks and drives to our favorite cafes worth it. Among them: variety. The coffee shops we frequent, more often than not, after all, serve non-coffee products as well. Maybe this is a snazzy signature drink that wouldn’t have occurred to you (more on this to come), or maybe it’s a great tea for your non-coffee-drinking-friend (or yourself – no one said you had to drink coffee ALL the time, right?).
