7/29/08 - (paraphrased from Specialty Coffee Retailer Magazine) "The North American organic coffee market reached one billion dollars in 2007, according to new data released in May during a sampling event featuring new organic coffees.  This is an increase of 29% over 2006 and amounts to approximately 84 million pounds of green beans. 

Pretty cool!  Keep up the support!

7/11/08 - This month's Special Roast is an ultra smooth Sumatra from Gayo Mountain.  It is a high altitude coffee grown from 3,200 to 6,000 feet in elevation.  It has a full body, a slightly nutty, earthy flavor and a sweet finish.  We roast it to a dark roast to highlight the flavors.  It's a personal favorite of mine and will not last long!

7/10/08 - Byron Nix of Green Mountain Velo has won the USCF National Criterium Championship for Masters 35+.  Kinetic Koffee is a proud sponsor of the team.  Congratulations to Byron and the rest of Green Mountain Velo.  Ride on!

6/3/08 - The 2008 race is over and the Kinetic Koffee/Los Bagels team rode admirably, incredibly garnering no awards but pleasing the crowds with the Not 2 Fast Not 2 Furious car.  Charlie and I had a great time!  There are a lot of videos on YouTube along with coverage on a number of websites.  One of the sponsors of the race was local radio station KHUM and their blog is a great place to start.  See you next year???  You can also check out the Kinetic Sculpture Lab to see
