Earlier this month, Starbucks acquired the Coffee Equipment Company in Ballard, the inventor of the "Clover" single-cup coffee maker. Now the Clover is in six Starbucks cafes (three in Seattle and three in Boston), and the early press is glowing. "It brews one of the tastiest cups of coffee this side of the moon," writes Business Week in an article with the title, "Starbucks on the comeback trail with Clover." The NY Times tried it, too, calling the Clover a hit but scolding Starbucks for using over-roasted beans.
