View entire thread: Torani Syrup.. when does it go bad?

Posted by drlouis on 2007-10-08 21:13:44      Post Subject:

I'm no expert on Torani or any other coffee syrup for that matter, but sugar based syrups will certainly ferment if given time and the bacteria to do it. No more than a bottle costs, I certainly wouldn't quibble over a partial bottle, I'd toss 'em. But that's me. maybe someone else could taste them for you? or you could gamble a latte on it, and see if it still tastes bad when mixed in a drink.

You may want to talk to an expert before starting your own shop. Try talking to Andy from Cora Italian Specialties, he helped when I first started my coffee shop and has been more than generous in providing advises. They specialized in providing all coffee shop supplies (espresso machines, equipment, coffee, syrup, etc.) www.corainc.com

View entire thread: Delonghi EC-410 Espresso Machine

Posted by johnno on 2004-01-25 18:42:37      Post Subject: Delonghi EC-410 Espresso Machine

I have a Delonghi EC-410 Espresso Machine. I am happy with the quality of the coffee it produces, but for me, it has one major problem. I put the coffee in the filter holder, tampe it, place the filter holder on the machine, run water to get my coffee / syrup. Turn the nozzle to the steamer position, heat the milk and make a superb cup of coffee.

.... Now to the problem. I go to take the filter holder off of the machine to make a second cup and there is a huge pressure build up. The filter holder explodes off of the machine, blowing coffee everywhere and making a mess. The machine is only 6 weeks old and this is the only major disappointment I have with it.

Is this a common problem with all home espresso machines? Can I fix this problem? If not, what is a decent coffee machine I can buy for home use that will not give me any problems?

........... Love the coffee but not the mess. What can I do? It ruins the whole coffee experience. Seems like the machine gets too hot. You can take the filter / holder off 1/2 an hour later and this will not happen.

Thanks.

Johnno

Posted by landchas on 2003-04-14 19:44:29      Post Subject: Coffee syrup

My mother used to have a coffee device that produced 'coffee syrup'. It used filters and 1lb of coffee, and made a coffee syrup that required only one teaspoon of syrup per cup of hot water for a fresh cup of coffee. Is anyone familiar with the device I'm talking about? If so, who makes it, and where can I find one?

I am doing research on opening my own store in the future and I was wondering what some of your favorite brands of coffee syrup were. I''m familiar with 1883 and Torani. I''m leaning more towards Torani. Any thoughts? Thanks! :-)

Often, dealing with the Starbucks-educated general public. Thats the hard part. Oh-how-I-love my neighborhood, my customers. Sometimes, though you hear the same line over and over... and it becomes a little hard not to laugh at 'em. But then again.... not everyone should know way too much about coffee as most here do. However, here's my favorite examples, heard much too often:

"oh my god, is there supposed to be coffee in this caffe mocha? Cuz it tastes like coffee and i don't like it. Did you, like, put coffee syrup in here or something?"


"can i just have a regular"-cust
"a medium?"-me
"no, a regular"-cust.
"oh, ok, a small"-me
"no, just a regular cup"-cust.
"in-house? ceramic?" -me
"i dunno, just, you know, whatever"-cust.


{Big Huge Sign right in front of them saying "COFFEE. JUST COFFEE. BREWED FRESH." complete with size, price, ect. }
Annoyed: Do you have a cup of just coffee? Why do all these places make it soooo confusing!

These customers get a medium brewed coffee in a to go cup. As soon as we realize they are of the "Midwest farmer Folgers drinker" mindset, we go straight for the medium cup, and leave lots of room for cream.
