Featured Recipe
Whiskey Maple Coffee Cocktail
pullandpourcoffee.com
Whiskey, maple syrup, and coffee are all great on their own, but they work surprisingly well together in this simple cold brew cocktail that is just perfect for this time of year. Strong cold brew and whiskey bring the backbone, maple
syrup adds just enough sweetness, and a layer of cream rounds everything out.

Automated Pour-Over Is Having a Moment
pullandpourcoffee.com
Automated pour-over brewers are quickly becoming one of the most interesting categories in home coffee. The new Cosori Juni uses a moving nozzle and rotating brew basket to recreate manual pour patterns, while offering deep control over temperature, flow,
agitation and more—and Breville just entered the category with its new $599.95 Spiral Luxe. Alongside brewers like xBloom, these machines point toward a future where the precision and customization of manual pour-over increasingly
meet the convenience and repeatability of an automatic brewer.

Does the Type of Coffee You Drink Affect How You Age?
dailycoffeenews.com
A study of nearly 50,000 adults found that filtered coffee consumption was associated with slower biological age acceleration, while instant coffee was associated with faster acceleration compared with non-coffee drinkers. It’s an observational study,
so it doesn’t prove your V60 is keeping you young—but it adds an interesting wrinkle to research suggesting that how we brew coffee may matter.

Is Robusta Really the Climate-Resilient Coffee We Think It Is?
freshcup.com
Robusta is often positioned as a more climate-resilient alternative to arabica, but a review of more than 50 studies argues the reality is more complicated. While robusta generally tolerates more heat than arabica, researchers found it remains vulnerable
to drought and may not withstand high temperatures as well as commonly assumed—strengthening the case for greater coffee species diversity rather than relying on a single solution.
