As I’ve shared before, Boca Java coffee is currently a favorite at-work-cup-of-coffee for me. I’ve been looking around the Boca Java Coffee website and it’s pretty interesting.

Since October 2003, Boca Java coffee has been donating coffee to our troops. Their way to provide a welcome taste of home for our men and women in the service.

In July 2005, they created ‘Operation Million Cup’ as a way for their customers to send coffee to the troops. Through this program, they discount the price of the coffee to $4 per 8-ounce bag and match each customers’ donation bag for bag.

They originally set a goal of one million cups and reached that goal in about a year. Since the troops were still not home, and the coffee donations were still needed, they continued this special program and renamed it Operation 2 Million Cup. And now with more than 2.5 million cups donated, it’s been renamed to Operation 3 Million Cup.

Here’s one of the many letters from the troops to Boca Java coffee:

From: Hummel, Jennifer CPL
Sent: Friday, September 09, 2005 3:35 AM
Subject: Thank you so much

All, Thank you so much for the wonderful donations of coffee. The soldiers here are enjoying all the great tasting brews. I am elated to know that there are still so many people back home that are doing what they can to help support the soldiers that are away from their normal life styles as well as their friends and family. We pull some long hours at times and having the coffee that you donated to us helps keep the mission going! The job we have to do here could not be done without the support that everyone state side gives us everyday. Thank you for being so thoughtful and taking time from your busy schedules to send something our way.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FROM THE Headquarters & Headquarters Battery 2-44 ADA

Boca Java is running a promotion where you can Win a $200 Giftcard with Boca Java.

Each order that you place for Boca Java coffee, gets you one more entry for the $200 prize. Here are the full details…

Kris, a friend from work, joined up with the Boca Java Coffee Club and shares the coffee with me. I’m a big fan. One of our favorites is Lee’s Caramel Kiss Island coffee blend. Its got a caramel and chocolate taste.

One of the cool things about Boca Java (and the Lee’s Carmel Kiss Island blend) is that it is dedicated to Lee Frcek, cherished wife, mother and grandmother, who battled leukemia for thirteen and a half years. A portion of the proceeds from this coffee will be donated to the leukemia and lymphoma society.

You get a great cup of coffee and also help others out in the process.

BKFelix shares, “Timothy’s World Coffee Kona blend is a soft cup of coffee, better than most pods, but not even close to a fresh cup of real quality Kona.”

On the flipside, Michael’s review, “I know that there are mixed reviews of these k-cups on here but if you are a coffee lover you owe it to yourself to try this. Timothy’s Kona are currently my favorite k-cups. This is a full flavored medium roast coffee that wakes up the taste buds. It is true that being a blend you don’t get true Kona flavor but who cares? What makes this a great blend is that the body is a superb cup of coffee and the hint of Kona flavor makes it even more special.”

From the Timothy’s World website, they describe their Kona Blend as a Medium Blend. Further stating, “Delight in Timothy’s new Kona blend, straight from Hawaii. This mouth-enlivening brew will transport you to the Hawaiian Islands where you will enjoy the taste sensation of tropical fruits and hints of chocolate.”

The clock and timer have worked well. I can reset, and reload it, after I finish my coffee and it’s ready for the next days brew. It also has it’s own replaceable water filter…Everything is so well thought out on this machine. The carafe is good size, and the top is designed to be almost ’slosh’ proof. The speed it brews at is great! It makes a good cup of coffee faster than anything I’ve used in the past.”

A review at amazon states, “This coffee maker makes great tasting coffee. I never knew there was a difference — it’s worth spending a few more dollars on. It also has all of the features I was looking for such as: adjustable warming plate, 1-4 cup selection, water filter, programmable. It is a rather tall machine, but certainly not a problem as it fits fine underneathe most cabinets. Also, the carafe is well-made and has a spout that pours nicely without spilling.”

Shannon reviews the Hamilton Beach 43253 Ensemble at amazon like this: “We had no need for a new coffee pot. The free one from Gevelia was working just fine. However, on a recent trip to K-mart we caught this one on sale for just under 40 bucks, and it’s RED! We’ve slowly been building up a counter top of red kitchen appliances, so the coffee maker fits right in!

Easy to clean! The mouth of the pitcher is as wide as the base, so it’s easy to get your hand inside to clean it out unlike some. Few buttons, so it’s easy to program too. Very light weight, so it’s also easy to move the maker around if needed. No complaints about speed either. I never feel like I’m waiting on it to finish. One small complaint, but it’s nothing major…there is no room for going over the 12 cup limit. It will overflow! Some makers have a little room for you to overfill, but not this one! No biggie, just don’t overfill!

I also like the wide karaff on this one. A lot of pitchers have a weird karaff that always causes you to spill a few drops when pouring that first cup. Not this one! Clean up of the coffee ground chamber is easy too. I suggest investing in one of those permanent copper reusable filters. They work really well with this one. I have yet to end up with grounds in the coffee.”
