TX-Coffee: THE NEW VERSION

July 31, 2008

If you found us here at txcp.wordpress.com, I would like to invite you to our permanent address.

This blog space was once found under the domain TX-COFFEE.  We have set up the blog on our private server under the same URL.

This allows us to do many things, one of which is to move the forums to the same URL, as well as to integrate them into the blog appearance platform. (to see what I mean, click the link above, and then go to the “Forums” link in the header.)

For those who have been tracking us via the wordpress.com URL for the last year and a half, we appreciate your patronage, and hope you’ll continue your readership via the TX-Coffee.com URL.

If you subscribed to the Feedblitz email feed, there is no need to do anything. You weekly compilation updates will continue to be delivered as usual.

There are an abundant ways to subscribe and share Texas Coffee People with your friends and family at the new blog space, so please update your feed readers as needed.

Another fun feature we’ve added is the Internet Coffee Database Search Engine created by yours truly, with a bank of over 160 independent blogs, forums, and websites from the progressive side of the specialty coffee industry, so when you have questions, you get only the best answers from around the net.

Thanks for a great year and a half thus far, and we look forward to seeing you on the Forums.  If you haven’t registered yet, there is no time like the present to do just that.

This “past” incarnation site will remain available, however, it will be much less active, if active at all.


DFW Jam 2008: The aftermath

July 22, 2008

I didn’t go, so I can’t give you much news about it, though you can check out the thread, ask questions, read comments, and so forth if you are so inclined.

Pictures taken at the Jam can be viewed here.
(Thanks to Brittany Reed for bringing a camera!)


Have a great week, and a terrific weekend

June 24, 2008

So to everyone out there in Texas Coffee Land.. Have a great week, and a wonderful weekend!


Oak Cliff Coffee: Dallas, TX

May 30, 2008

I received an email from Shannon to let us know about their roasting company.  He writes,

I just wanted to let y’all know about us.  We’re a specialty roaster in Oak Cliff (Dallas).  We deliver in Oak Cliff and ship anywhere.  And deal mostly with Fair Trade, Direct Trade and Organic/Natural coffee.

We’re only online right now but we’re looking to open a shop soon.

Thanks,
Shannon Neffendorf
Oak Cliff Coffee Roasters

I poked around a bit on their website, and found this in the “About us” section:

Coffee initially became a passion of ours because of the conversations and connections with family, friends and new acquaintances that it facilitates. The passion grew into roasting high quality coffee beans and sharing the passion with others. Coffee, much like life, should not simply be about what you consume but also what you can create.

We desire to create a great coffee experience from aroma to taste to conversation through our beans. Also to do our part, however small it may be, to create a better quality of life for the most crucial aspect of a good cup of coffee, the farm it’s grown on.

Thanks for telling us about your roasting outfit, Shannon.

Oak Cliff Coffee has been added to the list of Roasters.
