With so many articles and rumors online regarding coffee, it can be challenging to find reliable sources of information. To help you better understand coffee and make the earth healthier for everyone, we’ve created this website to inform our readers on brewing techniques while considering their resources.

The Wild Boar specializes in customer satisfaction, and offers a relaxing, peaceful setting to meet with friends, family or business associates. We also offer free Wi-Fi, meeting facilities, and catering for business or social gatherings. Our baristas make some of the best coffee drinks in town, and excel in latte art.

Nestled in the heart of Fort Collins, our restaurant offers a wide variety of food from Mexican to Greek, in a charming atmosphere with views of College Avenue. Enjoy dining in one of the many rooms, such as the porch, parlor, library, den, living room, study, or lower level, or just sitting down in a plush leather chair enjoying hot coffee or tea and reading a book.

Why Do We Test Products?
Because it builds authenticity. But also because…
- There’s a growing interest in test reports. More and more people look forward to more options when buying something as unique as a coffee maker or coffee beans. That is why in Wild Boar Coffee’s most popular articles, 8 of them are detailed test reports.
- With the help of such articles, we’re able to finance my work and this site.
How Do We Finance Wild Boar Coffee
We add commission links in my articles. If people buy from a marketplace using these links, we get a cut commission from that purchase. And you don’t have to pay a buck more! You’ll find links to Amazon and eBay. When you make a purchase, there will be no additional costs for you. With the help of these commissions, we can buy more coffee products and test all of them ourselves.
Here’s where things get interesting. Because we earn more through commissions, we don’t endorse one brand over another—no room for paid favoritism on this website. We wouldn’t enjoy testing new coffee products for my readers if we sold our contributions to manufacturers or let their tastes affect mine.
The only people we cooperate with are coffee roasters. And whenever we do, we never forget to mention it in my articles. You can read as many of our test product articles as you want. You won’t find any loopholes in them. All we do is write about delicious coffee brands and share them with you.
Our goal is to help you make the best possible coffee purchase, whether it’s a new coffee gear, bag of beans, or coffee accessories.
If you don’t like what you bought via our suggestion and return the product, our commission gets cut.
What Goes Into Testing New Coffee Products?
This generally depends on the category, of course.
Our process is that we look for the newest and most promising products online. We research the brand and product information beforehand because this makes it easier to compare multiple products afterward.
It’s all about customer experience. How would a particular coffee product add value to your kitchen?
Let’s say we’re testing a fully automatic coffee machine. We will jot down all the questions we could come up with. Where is it used? How many cups of coffee do we need? How long does it take to make espresso with coffee beans and ground coffee?
In answering these questions and testing out the answers using the appliance, we trust our experience.
Our articles are a blend of objectively understandable criticism and my personal opinion. It means that we will compare two products based on their features. Which makes the best espresso? Which is the easiest to use of the two?
But I will not stop myself from telling you the truth if I find that one of the appliances is too bulky or awful to look at!
