It forms part of the food and beverage division of The J.M. Smucker Company . Folgers roasts its coffee in New Orleans . "J.A. Folger & Co. were established in 1850 as Wm. H. Bovee & Co" The precursor of the Folger Coffee Company
190-439: A blade grinder designed specifically for coffee and spices, or in a general use home blender . Devices of this sort are cheaper than burr grinders, but the grind is not uniform and will produce particles of widely varying sizes, while ideally all particles should have the same size, appropriate for the method of brewing. Moreover, the particles get smaller and smaller during the grinding process, which makes it difficult to achieve
285-453: A vacuum flask or insulated bottle to maintain its temperature. In most areas, coffee may be purchased unprocessed, or already roasted, or already roasted and ground. Whole roast coffee or ground coffee is often vacuum-packed to prevent oxidation and lengthen its shelf life. Especially in hot climates, some find cold or iced coffee more refreshing. This can be prepared well in advance as it maintains its character when stored cold better than as

I always loved stars and always identified with them – so, when it came time to put something on my face, I knew it would be a star." In his book Sex Money Kiss , Gene Simmons says Stanley was the driving force for KISS during the period in the 1980s when the band performed without makeup. Those years, Stanley noted, "were fine for me. I found them very satisfying because I got
475-449: A brief time, Stanley tried out a new character "the Bandit", with a " Lone Ranger " style mask design make-up pattern. This make-up design was used during a few 1973–74 shows and photo-shoots, some of which he was photographed with both designs in the same session. "I even tried painting my face all red," he admitted. "I looked like a longhaired tomato! Before settling on the star, I'd just paint
570-400: A chance to be out there without makeup, which I craved at that point. I think it was easier for me [than Simmons] because my persona was one that wasn't really defined by the makeup… The makeup was just reinforcing what you were seeing and who I was." In 2007, Stanley was hospitalized with tachycardia . In his absence, Kiss performed live as a trio for the first time in decades. The concert
665-425: A coffee pod composed of finely ground coffee sealed between two layers of filter paper or through a proprietary capsule containing ground coffee. Examples include the pod-based Senseo and Home Café systems and the proprietary Tassimo and Keurig K-Cup systems. The AeroPress is another recent invention, which is a mechanical, non-electronic device where pressure is simply exerted by the user manually pressing
760-425: A consistent grind from batch to batch. Blade grinders create "coffee dust" that can clog up sieves in espresso machines and French presses, and are best suited for drip coffee makers. They are not recommended for grinding coffee for use with pump espresso machines. Arabic coffee and Turkish coffee require that the grounds be almost powdery in fineness, finer than can be achieved by most burr grinders. Pounding

The brick, five-story Folger Coffee Company Building at 101 Howard in San Francisco, California
1045-476: A hot beverage. Even with the same roast, the character of the extraction is highly dependent on distribution of particle sizes produced by the grinding process, temperature of the grounds after grinding, freshness of the roast and grind, brewing process and equipment, temperature of the water, character of the water itself, contact time with hot water (less sensitive with cold water), and the brew ratio employed. Preferred brew ratios of water to coffee often fall into

It is consumed during the day at cafes and from street vendors, or after an evening meal. It is the basis for many coffee drinks. It is one of the most concentrated forms of coffee regularly consumed, with a distinctive flavor provided by crema ,
1330-617: A more even extraction when brewed, without excessively fine particles that clog filters. These mills offer a wide range of grind settings, making them suitable to grind coffee for various brewing systems such as espresso, drip, percolators, French press, and others. Many burr grinders, including almost all domestic versions, are unable to achieve the extremely fine grind required for the preparation of Turkish coffee ; traditional Turkish hand grinders are an exception. Burr grinders are of two types - conical burrs and flat wheel burrs. Most manual coffee grinders use conical burrs, but there have been

There are also burr grinders, including a few manual coffee grinders, utilizing two burr sets for prebreaking and fine-grinding in order to sieve out coffee chaff , potentially work as slow feeders, achieve more uniform coffee grinds, and, in
1520-419: A piston down with their hand, forcing medium-temperature water through coffee grounds in about 30 seconds (into a single cup.) This method produces a smoother beverage than espresso, falling somewhere between the flavor of a moka pot and a French Press . Proper brewing of coffee requires using the correct amount of coffee grounds, extracted to the correct degree (largely determined by the correct time), at

Characteristics which may be emphasized or deemphasized by different preparation methods include: acidity (brightness), aroma (especially more delicate floral and citrus notes), mouthfeel (body), astringency , bitterness (both positive and negative), and the duration and intensity of flavour perception in the mouth (finish). The addition of sweeteners, dairy products (e.g. milk or cream), or dairy alternatives (e.g. almond milk ) also changes
2565-443: Is made by heating coarse grounds with water in a pot, letting the grounds settle and pouring off the liquid to drink, sometimes filtering it to remove fine grounds. While the name suggests that this method was used by cowboys, presumably on the trail around a campfire, it is used by others; some people prefer this method. The above methods are sometimes used with hot milk instead of water. Turkish coffee (aka Arabic coffee, etc.),

3040-429: Is then filtered, usually through a very thick filter, removing all particles. This process produces a very strong concentrate which can be stored in a refrigerated, airtight container for up to eight weeks. The coffee can then be prepared for drinking by adding hot water to the concentrate at a water-to-concentrate ratio of approximately 3:1, but can be adjusted to the drinker's preference. The coffee prepared by this method

This is a traditional method for making a cup of coffee that is still used in parts of Indonesia . This method, known as "mud coffee" in the Middle East owing to an extremely fine grind that results in a mud-like sludge at the bottom of the cup, allows for extremely simple preparation, but drinkers then have to be careful if they want to avoid drinking grounds either from this layer or floating at

Both manually and electrically powered mills are available. These mills grind the coffee to a fairly uniform size determined by the separation of the two abrasive surfaces between which the coffee is ground; the uniform grind produces
4370-645: The beans with a mortar and pestle can pulverise the coffee finely enough. In a roller grinder, the beans are ground between pairs of corrugated rollers. A roller grinder produces a more even grind size distribution and heats the ground coffee less than other grinding methods. However, due to their size and cost, roller grinders are used exclusively by commercial and industrial scale coffee producers. Water-cooled roller grinders are used for high production rates as well as for fine grinds such as Turkish and espresso. Coffee can be brewed in several different ways, but these methods fall into four main groups depending on how
4465-420: The boiling water up through coffee grounds held in the middle section, separated by a filter mesh from the top section. The resultant coffee (almost espresso strength, but without the crema) is collected in the top section. Moka pots usually sit directly on a stovetop heater or burner. Some models have a transparent glass or plastic top. Single-serving coffee machines force hot water under low pressure through

4845-418: The coffee down through the filter. Drip brew coffee, also known as filtered coffee, is made by letting hot water drip onto coffee grounds held in a coffee filter surrounded by a filter holder or brew basket. Drip brew makers can be simple filter holder types manually filled with hot water, or they can use automated systems as found in the popular electric drip coffee-maker . Strength varies according to

This can be modified by stopping the filtration after a planned time and then adding hot water to the brew instead of waiting for all the water to pass through the grounds. In addition to the "cold press", there is a method called "Cold Drip Coffee". Also known as "Dutch Ice Coffee" (and very popular in Japan), instead of steeping, this method very slowly drips cold water into

Wicked Lester fell apart and Stanley and Simmons answered Peter Criss 's advertisement in Rolling Stone . Soon after recruiting Criss, they held auditions for a lead guitarist, with Stanley placing an ad in the Village Voice . Ace Frehley won the group over with his playing, and was nearly a perfect fit to

#17328525032275890-471: The ground coffee unless used to grind very large amounts as in a commercial operation. A fine grind allows the most efficient extraction but coffee ground too finely will slow down filtration or screening. Ground coffee deteriorates faster than roasted beans because of the greater surface area exposed to oxygen. Many coffee drinkers grind the beans themselves immediately before brewing. Used coffee grounds can be reused for hair care or skin care as well as in
5985-461: The grounds, which then very slowly pass through a filter. Unlike the cold press (which functions similar to a French Press) which takes eight to twenty-four hours, a Cold Drip process only takes about two hours, with taste and consistency results similar to that of a cold press. Espresso is made by forcing hot water at 91–95 °C (196–203 °F) under a pressure of between 8 and 18 bar (800 and 1,800 kPa; 120 and 260 psi), through

At this point, Stanley had the idea of changing his name not only for marketing purposes but also the fact he had always hated his birth name. Inspired by Paul McCartney and Paul Rodgers , he legally changed his name to Paul Stanley. Stanley's persona in Kiss was "the Starchild" displaying one star over his right eye. For

The resulting strong coffee, with foam on the top and a thick layer of grounds at the bottom, is drunk from small cups. A cafetière , or French press, is a tall, narrow cylinder with a plunger that includes a metal or nylon fine mesh filter. The grounds are placed in
6270-546: The heated water and produce a bitter, harsh, "over-extracted" taste. At the other extreme, an overly coarse grind will produce weak coffee unless more is used. Due to the importance of a grind's fineness, a uniform grind is highly desirable. If a brewing method is used in which the time of exposure of the ground coffee to the heated water is adjustable, then a short brewing time can be used for finely ground coffee. This produces coffee of equal flavor yet uses less ground coffee. A blade grinder does not cause frictional heat buildup in
6365-569: The memoir, Stanley, who is Jewish, accused former bandmates Ace Frehley and Peter Criss of antisemitism . An unreleased song written by Stanley along with Jean Beauvoir , titled "Like a Bee to the Honey", was recorded and released by the Finnish hard rock band Lordi for their album, Killection . In 1982, after he turned 30 years old, Stanley had reconstructive surgery for the microtia in his right ear done by Frederic Rueckert, who had been performing
6460-432: The particular steps vary with the type of coffee and with the raw materials, the process includes four basic steps: raw coffee beans must be roasted , the roasted coffee beans must then be ground , and the ground coffee must then be mixed with hot or cold water (depending on the method of brewing) for a specific time ( brewed ), the liquid coffee extraction must be separated from the used grounds , and finally, if desired,
6555-400: The perceived character of the brewed coffee. Principally, dairy products mute delicate aromas and thicken mouthfeel (particularly when frothed), while sweeteners mask astringency and bitterness. Roasting coffee transforms the chemical and physical properties of green coffee beans . When roasted, the green coffee bean expands to nearly double its original size, changing in color and density. As

Procter & Gamble acquired Folger's in 1963 and removed the apostrophe from its name. During P&G's ownership, Folgers became the number one coffee brand in America. On August 9, 1969, company heiress Abigail Folger
6745-874: The procedure primarily on children. The new ear was formed from cartilage from one of the singer's ribs, with skin grafts put over it. Stanley said the surgery had given him "a new lease on life" and was so grateful to Rueckert that he gave the doctor a Rolex watch upon his retirement. Because of this birth defect, Stanley is an ambassador for the charitable organization AboutFace , an organization that provides support and information to people with facial differences. He has appeared at fundraising events and in videos to raise awareness. In 2001, Stanley's first wife, actress Pamela Bowen, filed for divorce after nine years of marriage. They have one son named Evan, born in June 1994. On November 19, 2005, Stanley married longtime girlfriend Erin Sutton at
6840-506: The process is to not leave the coffee in the French press for too long after pressing. Boiling, decoction or maceration , was the main method used for brewing coffee until the 1930s and is still used in some European and Middle Eastern countries. The aromatic oils in coffee are released at 96 °C (205 °F), which is just below boiling, while the bitter acids are released when the water has reached boiling point. The simplest method
