People often write you need some special/expensive/barista equipment to brew coffee. Sometime, try the “turkish coffee” method: grind your roast to a powder, look up directions on the Internet. Can make this on any stove with a small saucepan. Sip slowly strong coffee, don’t drink grinds in the bottom of the cup. Enjoy

Peet brought much joy and discovery to many through his coffee tea spice activities. I was one of those Berkley-ites. Thank you Peet.

I have to agree with you about Peet’s Coffee, Recent over in Seattle and driving on I-5 it’s always worth the extra time it takes to go downtime and stop at Peet’s for a 20once double shot mocha with extra mocha, and waiting to cross the bridge while the boats go through. When you get to Peets and order your drink it is well worth the extra time it takes to go to Peet’s could of stopped at any other coffee stand or umm Starbucks. Take the extra time and Stop at Peet’s :)

This morning I make my Breve Latte, with my favorite blend of Peet’s Arabian Mocha Java and Espresso Forte beans, in fond memory of Alfred Peet’s contribution to the world of fine coffee.

Many people don’t know this, but Alfred Peet taught a young Howard Shultz the coffee business. Howard left the company to found a little company called Starbucks. I won’t ever hold that against Alfred, though. He stayed true to his own roots by maintaining the company’s soul and making quality a top priority.

Thank you, Alfred!

I was about to email you this news when I decided to check your blog first and of course, you’re already on top of it.

I’m going to have a cup o’ the major in his honor.
