Java Jig – I have found the Java Jig to be highly effective device for making single serve (pod) coffee.  It’s cost effective and environmentally friendly as you can use it a multitude of times. Java Jig Image
It also allows you to grind your very own favorite coffee so you can use it in your pod coffee maker – thus you don’t have to make a whole pot of your favorite coffee when you only want a single cup.  Freedom, cost effective and friendly on the environment – what more could you ask for.

 

 

Kona Coffee is the only coffee that is grown within the United States. Kona, on The Big Island in Hawaii has grown exceptional coffee continuously since the early 1800’s. The Kona name only applies to beans grown in North and South Kona.    Coffee that is grown in other parts of Hawaii cannot be called Kona Coffee. Kona coffee is a rich, medium-bodied and slightly acidic coffee with an amazing aroma.  Here you can find two great sources for Kona Coffee:
