Is there jenever or alcohol in the Krak Chocolade Juniper berry?

This bar contains Dutch juniper berry, so the berry itself and not jenever. Krak lists cocoa beans, juniper berry and unrefined cane sugar as ingredients.

The juniper berry is the cone fruit that is also used to flavour gin, jenever and aquavit, and from which the drink jenever takes its name. In the chocolate the berry provides a fresh, citrus-like note.

Do I get whole beans or ground coffee with Gorilla Kaffeehaus Mischung?

These are whole coffee beans, not ground coffee. One pack contains 1 kilo of beans.

So you need a machine with its own grinder, for example a bean to cup machine, or a separate coffee grinder. Beans versus ground is the most common mistake when ordering coffee, so do check what your machine needs.

What is the difference between almonds in dark chocolate and almonds in milk chocolate?

The difference is in the chocolate layer. Dark chocolate has a higher cocoa content and less sugar, which makes the taste more intense and slightly bitter. Milk chocolate is sweeter and creamier.

Both versions contain the same crunchy almonds and both come in a 250 gram pack. If you like a pronounced cocoa flavour, choose this dark chocolate version.

How do I prevent damage to the side covers of my Gene Cafe coffee roaster?

Never switch the roaster on without the roasting chamber being in place. That is also stated in the manual and it is the most common reason why customers have to replace these covers.

Also check, when you fit the roasting chamber, that it slots into place smoothly and does not rub against anything.

What is the drip tray for on this tea filter?

When the tea is ready, you take the filter out of your cup or pot and place it in the drip tray supplied. The last drops collect there, so you do not get wet rings on your table or worktop. Handy if you want to leave the tea leaves for a second steeping.

What do the four coffees in the Hausbrandt tasting pack taste like?

Qualità Rossa is an allrounder with hints of chocolate and nuts. Espresso (Nonnetti) is a blend of 75 percent arabica and 25 percent robusta, lightly sweet and nutty, with hardly any acidity. Gourmet Columbus is made from pure arabica and can be drunk at any time of the day and in any way. Superbar has a full body with a light acidity and is a slightly more refined variant alongside the Nonnetti.

How much loose tea fits in the 50 mm tea tongs?

These oval tongs of 50 mm are intended for one cup of tea. Allow for about 2 grams, roughly a level teaspoon. Do not fill them to the brim, because wet tea leaves expand and need room to release their flavour. For a whole pot of tea it is better to use a larger tea filter.

How much arabica and robusta is in the Hausbrandt Qualità Rossa?

The Qualità Rossa is the red label variant from Hausbrandt and consists of 70 percent arabica and 30 percent robusta.

The robusta share provides extra body, a firm crema and a spicy note. If you prefer a milder cup without robusta, take a look at a blend of 100 percent arabica.

Is this tea infuser also suitable for fine loose tea?

Yes. This tea infuser is made of stainless steel with a fine mesh, so smaller tea particles are held back as well. It works perfectly for broken leaf, rooibos and herbal blends. Only powder-fine tea such as matcha does not belong in a filter, you whisk that straight into the water.

What is the difference between the espresso, coffee and cappuccino cup and saucer from Café du Jour?

The three cups come from the same original Café du Jour range and differ only in capacity: this espresso cup is about 80 cc, the coffee cup about 150 cc and the cappuccino cup about 200 cc.

These sizes are regularly mixed up when ordering. If you are looking for a cup for regular coffee or cappuccino, choose the 150 cc or 200 cc version instead of this espresso cup.

Does Ceylon black tea contain caffeine?

Yes. Ceylon is a true black tea from the tea plant and naturally contains caffeine, also known as theine. How much ends up in your cup depends on your dosage and steeping time: the longer you let it steep, the more caffeine. If you are looking for a cup without caffeine, have a look at rooibos or herbal tea.

Do I get whole beans or ground coffee in the Julius Meinl tasting pack?

You get whole coffee beans. It is also stated in the product name: this Julius Meinl tasting pack consists of 3 x 1 kilo of coffee beans. So you need a coffee grinder or a machine with a built-in grinder. Beans versus ground is the most common ordering mistake, so do check this before you order.

Which types of tea are in the loose leaf tea starter pack?

The pack contains Wicca, Earl Grey, Islands of the Netherlands and Crunchy Apple Pie, each in a bag of 100 grams. All four are blends based on black tea, from classic to fruity. That way you get to know four very different sides of loose leaf tea in one go.

Do I get whole beans or ground coffee with illy Arabica Selection Brazilië?

This 250 gram pack contains whole coffee beans, not ground coffee. The product data lists the form as whole bean accordingly.

So you grind the beans yourself, or you let your bean to cup machine do it. If you are looking for ground coffee, choose a ground version from illy.

Does Silencieuse white tea contain caffeine?

Yes. White tea comes from the same tea plant as green and black tea and therefore naturally contains caffeine, also known as theine. The added rose itself contains no caffeine. How much ends up in your cup depends on your dosage and steeping time. If you want a cup without caffeine, choose rooibos or a herbal infusion.
