CBS News Boston Features Good As Gold Coffee's Soft Coffee Pod Home Solution!
WBZ Boston's weekend show welcomed Mike, to demonstrate the company's latest innovations in coffee brewing for your home. Mike walked the team through the features of the new Briggs Coffee Brewer and introduced Good As Gold's soft coffee pods.
What Are Soft Coffee Pods?
Let me explain what soft coffee pods are and how they differ from traditional coffee pods you might be familiar with. Think of soft coffee pods as being similar to premium tea bags, but specifically engineered for coffee brewing. They consist of precisely measured, freshly ground coffee sealed within a specialized filter material that's both biodegradable and designed for optimal coffee extraction. These soft coffee pods can be composted and will break down naturally in your garden.
The Briggs Coffee Brewer
The Briggs Coffee Brewer represents a thoughtful advancement in home coffee brewing technology, designed specifically to work with soft coffee pods—an eco-friendly alternative to traditional plastic coffee capsules. The Briggs brewer maximizes the potential of these pods through its precise temperature control system, maintaining a steady 205°F throughout the brewing process—the same temperature used in high-end commercial coffee brewers. Your K-Cup brewer has a much lower maximum water temperature so as not to melt the plastic.
Key Features of the Briggs Coffee Brewer
Another key feature is a pressurized brew environment. Think of this chamber like a mini pressure cooker for your coffee - it's completely sealed during brewing, which means all the aromatic compounds and oils stay trapped where they belong: flowing directly to your cup. This pressurized environment also ensures that water maintains consistent contact with the coffee grounds throughout the entire brewing cycle. This maximizes extraction, ensuring you have a rich and flavorful cup of coffee.
Combine this high temp brewing that enter into a tightly sealed brewing chamber, along with programmable buttons for various cup sizes up to 16 ounces and an immediate recovery system for consecutive brewing, makes the Briggs Pod Brewer an ideal choice for both home and small office environments.
Distinctive Taste Profile of Good As Gold Coffee
Good As Gold Coffee's distinctive taste profile comes from our carefully developed air-roasting process, a method that ensures consistent flavor development within each coffee bean. Our air-roasting technology suspends each bean on a cushion of heated air, providing uniform heat exposure and preventing the scorching that often occurs with traditional drum roasting. By eliminating contact with hot metal surfaces, we allow the beans to develop their natural flavors gradually and evenly. This methodical approach results in a clean taste profile where you can distinguish the subtle flavor notes that premium coffee beans should deliver. When combined with our soft coffee pod technology, this air-roasting process creates a cup of coffee that balances environmental responsibility with exceptional taste quality.
