BBC - History - Elisabeth Dakin (c.1848) (#)
„Roasting is a precise skill, however: insufficient roasting fails to fully extract the oils, but excess roasting can see them burnt away entirely. Elisabeth Dakin, who married a London-based tea and coffee merchant in 1841, thought that the iron used in traditional roasters 'imparted noxious qualities' on the delicate flavours of the coffee, and developed a coffee roaster made of gold, silver or platinum.“

BBC NEWS | Business | Why cheap beans don't make cheap coffee
„The importer, which is usually a major trading company, will then incur port and customs charges before the coffee moves to a large coffee roasting company. In the UK, where many people prefer instant coffee, the coffee beans go through a costly spray-drying or freeze-drying process. Alternatively, the coffee is roasted and ground to make filter coffee. Only then will the coffee tins and jars be filled, labelled and transported to the supermarket shelves or to the coffee shops.“

„Farmers have learned more about the quality of their coffee and why they get paid the prices they receive. Coffee buyers, roasting company owners, even the BBC have come through here in the last two weeks. Yasika Sur and the farmers I work with are indeed becoming an example of both crisis and possibility. Coffee drinkers are less willing to participate in deeply exploitative relationships.“
