Orgin Interview
Hey guys,
Two questions:
1. Has any of those attending the Fest in Chicago has ever taken an orgin trip?
2. And out of those who have, anyone willing to sit down during the fest and talk about it?
I'm attempting to do a research paper for school about the affect the american coffee consumer has on individual farms and farmers. With the main thought focusing on Americans paying a fair price for their coffee so as to have positive influance at orgin.
And I guess I can add a third question, anyone have any thoughts on where I can find other resources? I know I may be able to find a lot at the fest, but it doesn't hurt to throw the question out there.
Thanks!
Cherie

I am working on my menu in my shop, and am trying to decide about my brewing offerings. I will be having a pourover bar, rather than airpots of mechanical drip coffee, due to my commitment to providing the freshest cup possible. I plan to have a dri…
Yep... that's about right. All machines have some benefits and fans, or else they wouldn't be in business.
For a fast paced drive-thru, I'd say make sure it is a big boiler and quick steamer. Forget the two groups... you'll be 3 group territory. Yo…
Hey!
Thanks for your suggestions, it's awesome to find someone so willing to be helpful. I actually did find a position as morning manager at a Coffee Shop/Wine Bar here called Perugino, so my immediate search is over, but I'll still check out your…
It's not that hard to make. Google it and find something you like in the way of a recipe. Fun to experiment. Time allowing that is.
A naked PF is absolutely paramount for me in successfully adjusting my grinder's setting. And in the beginning, was just as important in figuring out the correct distribution/tamping technique.
I like it.
I want to clarify.... Were you using My Chai, inc. from Bend, Or? Or some other my chai, or maya chai?
I'm not sure if you're looking for different importers/ roasters, but I know that Cafe Imports has a great deal of information on most all coffee they carry. I'm not sure if they offer there coffee roasted already or if its all green.
