difference tween "whole bean" and columbian peaks?

Colombian peaks is just the new name for Colombian coffee. Whole bean or ground is just a preferance on how you make your coffee. I like to grind my own but I am sure the already ground is just as good

I keep coffee beans in the refrigerator until I ground them. The coffee seems to have a better taste and I find it an enjoyable experience to start the day.

Columbian peaks is, I think, available in whole bean or ground. So if you like Columbian coffee, the Eight O'clock is a good brand and you should buy whole bean if you intend to grind it yourself.

Patricia - I don't know how to answer that question. We bought our beans to use in making vanilla extract as a giveaway for this Christmas. So, we have a lot of Smirnoff vodka bottles with beans in them "steeping" until the late fall. I will say the beans arrived in very good condition and do have really good flavoring. Does that answer your question? Wes

They sit about the same as the BOB Revolution. My petite 9 year old can sit on the foot rest and her feet dangle and she is comfortable. This was a plus for me as I have 3 kids and another on the way. My friend has the BOB sport and the Summit has so many more features that she wishes she had.

Grade B is from the end of the harvest. It is darker in color, deeper in taste and contains more nutrients than grade A. Think dark chocolate vs milk chocolate... Hope that helps.

I am not sure about the difference these and the steel cut, all I remember about these is that they did win a championship where the Scottish kind was also in the competition, Bob's Redmill is the new Golden Spurtle World Porridge champion. I feel is the best 'out of the box' and healthy cereal we can get, I also buy the 'gluten free' kind for a family member, we could not find any other brand better than Bob's.

I'm pretty sure my first (and last) order I selected 'ground' but ended up getting whole bean anyway. I may have misclicked something... or not. In the end I resorted to purchase an inexpensive bean grinder from Walmart.

Not sure Rebecca ---Not sure I even really know the difference. I buy both labels at trader Joes and never gave it much thought --enjoy them equally --sorry

These are grown in Madagascar. "Splits" are often preferred by the larger vanilla extract makers because they usually have a higher vanillin content than whole beans. These are not "used" beans - they split on the vine or during curing. Great for making vanilla extract (8 ounces of beans will make one quart of vanilla extract) or vanilla sugar. They are not suitable for scraping out the caviar (nor are extract grade B whole beans).

It was a gift for my daughters birthday. She uses a colombian coffee bean that is medium grind. She gets it from one of the drivers that is originally from somewhere in Colombia. I hope this helps. She really loves the coffee it makes.

If you use whole beans and grind them a little coarse, that's the best option. However, I've used pre-ground beans and its worked fine, you just have to beware the extra-bitter magic dust that settles out into the last sip. This is probably true of any press though

The size is different - the ultimate is more of a football shape, while the children's is a sphere - so it affects the amount of dha in each capsule.The children's DHA is arctic cod liver oil, while the ultimate omega junior is from anchovies and sardines.My kids also say the taste is a little different, even though they're both strawberry flavored. They prefer the children's flavor.

'B' grade has a much stronger flavor and is better for cooking. I use B organic for my sugar in all recipes. 'A' and fancy are great for pancakes and waffles and lighter in color. There are websites that explain this as well.

I use Costco Columbian whole beans, which is a medium roast. Then grind only as much as I use for a day.

Lots of people use the terms synonymously and the bottomline is that both are just finely ground almonds. The difference is whether you want almond meal with or without the skins. Without the skins is more expensive, but if you're baking cakes or just want a lighter taste, then it's best to go with the almond meal without skins. If you're OK with a more heartier taste, then save some money and get almond meal with the skins on. I've been using Trader Joe's almond meal for about a year and still can't believe it's only $4.00 for a full pound. I've searched extensively and no one's price comes close. It tastes like fresh almonds. Honeyville Farms has great almond flour without the skins and the grind is consistent (as it Trader Joes'). The problem I find with Bob's Red Mill almond meal without the skins is that the grind is inconsistent and you can really tell. Hope this helps!

For most products, you would naturally prefer Grade A over Grade B - like meat or eggs, for instance. That's not the case with vanilla beans. You should buy the proper grade for your use. If you are going to cook with the beans, then opt for Grade A. They have a moisture content around 30% and have plenty of caviar to scrape out. If you are going to make vanilla extract, use Grade B vanilla beans. They are cured differently and have a moisture content of around 20%. One misconception is when people use Grade A vanilla beans and then switch to Grade B they feel that the beans are dried out. There is nothing wrong with them - they are drier by design. Think grapes vs raisins. You can make vanilla extract with Grade A beans, but that does not mean that you will be making a better extract. Finally, there are beans known as splits. Usually they split on the vine (sometimes during the curing process). They are sought after by many commercial producers of vanilla extract because they have a higher vanillin content than whole extract grade vanilla beans. They are not used beans.

What I read was A is for cooking but B is great for making vanilla extract...you can use A beans but won't make it any better...A is plumper but B are good too
