Home Roasting Jam
Written by John Brinkman   

dogbowl.jpg Seasons Greetings , we have decided to try something new for the year and are gonna be having a Home Roasting Jam !! SHould be a whole load of fun and something totally different.

If you have ever wondered about roasting some of your own coffee then this is a great opportunity to get started. You will need to bring a nice clean dogs bowl and a heat gun, alternatively you can bring along your popcorn maker and we will check if it is suitable or not (not all of them are).

We will have plenty of green beans available so you can try out your roasting skills and take your coffee home with you top drink. 

The jam will be at Malcolm's  my place on Saturday the 20th of February, it will be running from 14:00 until around 17:00

 There will be a small charge to cover costs, hope to see you guys there.

 Please RSVP on the forum HERE if you intend on coming so we can get an idea of numbe, here are links to a map to my house, if you get lost, please phone me on 083 309 4066

Malaysian authorities seize 'Viagra coffee'
Written by John Brinkman   

php6zcg9r.jpgKUALA LUMPUR - Malaysia's health authorities have seized over 20,000 dollars worth of coffee mixed with sildenafil, the main ingredient in erectile dysfunction drug Viagra, a report said Sunday.

"The coffee mixture had been distributed in sachets nationwide," an official was quoted as saying by the New Sunday Times newspaper.

"Officers found 900 boxes containing more than 9,000 sachets of the coffee mixture which retailed for more than 80 ringgit (23 dollars) per box," the officer added without naming the coffee brand in question.

Enforcement officials said the coffee was mixed with sildenafil to "perk up" drinkers beyond the usual stimulation provided by caffeine.

Health authorities recently raided the distribution company located in Gombak, just north of the capital Kuala Lumpur, the report said.

It cited a health ministry official as saying the company used individuals to distribute the product in small quantities to evade detection by enforcement agencies.

"Investigations revealed that the distributor attempted to mislead the public by claiming that the coffee mixture could provide an energy boost, besides being beneficial for men," he added.

Two years ago Malaysia made its largest single drug bust when it seized at least four million dollars-worth of a fake erectile dysfunction treatment labelled "Miagra".

The counterfeit pills, closely resembling the blue pills of the genuine Viagra brand, were destined for Malaysian and Thai markets.
