]]> Comment on Nespresso Going Green by KitchenBoy http://kitchenboy.net/blog/nespresso-going-green/#comment-55223 KitchenBoy Wed, 25 Jan 2012 20:56:52 +0000 http://kitchenboy.net/blog/nespresso-going-green/#comment-55223 @breaking out in hives - I finally heard back from Nespresso, sorry for the delay. These capsules are gluten free & free from other "allergens" according to the Nespresso representative I spoke with on the phone. They said there was no soy in the lining, but of course I was not given a complete ingredient list. They also state there is no "extra" or enhanced foam being generated by the use of carbonated soda or other elements. In my experience with espresso machines, I can say that crema is generated by pressure brewing and if carb' soda were introduced to the acid of coffee, the result would not be crema but over-flowing bubbling. Try adding even a little bit of carb' soda to an acid and see the reaction. I hope this helps. @breaking out in hives – I finally heard back from Nespresso, sorry for the delay.

]]> Comment on Do The Whiskey Stones Rock? by Elizabeth http://kitchenboy.net/blog/do-the-whiskey-stones-rock/#comment-54648 Elizabeth Thu, 05 Jan 2012 00:22:49 +0000 http://kitchenboy.net/blog/?p=708#comment-54648 Received the whiskey stones as a Christmas gift. Just used them today for the first time -- glad I read this blog -- I did expect them to really chill my single malt as I typically add ice, not water, to my scotch. That said, the stones just slightly chilled the scotch and, to tell you the truth, I really enjoyed the flavour! As the author has articulated, though, do not expect really "chilled" results, not going to happen with the stones; just a nice, cool (not cold) sip. Cheers!
