„Coffee is also grown on large plantations worked by landless day laborers with low rates of unionization and extremely poor working conditions. In 1995, as a result of pressure from the US/Guatemala Labor Education Project, Starbucks drafted the first Code of Conduct for coffee suppliers, but they have yet to implement it. Starbucks refuses to disclose the location of the plantations from which it buys, making independent monitoring impossible. A recent study by the Guatemalan Commission for the Verification of Corporate Codes of Conduct found half the workers on fincas in that country earning less than $3 per day for picking 100 pounds of coffee.“

The Coffee Review - the world's leading coffee buying guide (#)

„They can buy coffee in volume directly from coffee producers rather than through domestic dealers on a "spot" basis, as most smaller companies are forced to do. On the other hand, they are not compelled to buy the enormous, quality-dampening quantities of coffee Starbucks and the suppliers to Dunkin' Donuts are forced to buy. Furthermore, medium-sized companies have sufficient resources to buy the best roasting technology and knowledge, yet don't need to crank out the endless, largely anonymous rivers of coffee Starbucks and Dunkin' need to.“

It's All About Coffee (#)

„Finally, you need a good push..(ahem) supplier, who can lead you into the coffee maze gently, answering your questions and reining in your impulsiveness from time to time, but ever ready to coax you gently onward towards the perfect cup. Unfortunately the number of really knowledgeable coffee suppliers in the world is very limited indeed. At a guess, I'd say less than 200 fresh coffee roaster/retailers worldwide, and over half of them in the USA, and a quarter in Europe. In Australia, maybe 10 tops, and that's being generous.“

„Mexican Altura), but conventional coffees are always processed and purchased in bulk. Suppliers of these coffees, such as processors who mill or export coffee, are hard-pressed to provide specific growing information on the harvesting or labor conditions. Price is the primary variable, although these coffees are priced at a premium compared to commercial coffees.“

Home Espresso FAQ (#)

„Vinegar is acceptable for some -- but not all -- machines as a decalcifying agent. Chemical compounds specifically designed to safely clean espresso machines are available from restaurant suppliers and specialty coffee suppliers. Most are based around trisodium phosphate (TSP), a powerful cleaning agent normally used to clean walls. The TSP is cut with inert ingredients to bring down the concentration and buffers are added so it will not attack the rubber gasket.“

CoffeeGeek - Sustainable Harvest Coffee Prepares Latin American Growers for Worst (#)

„“There is not only a lot of paperwork, but it is a challenge for growers to understand the rules and do the research to comply with this Act, and nearly all of the information comes only in English,” says Griswold. “So, even though our main business is importing coffee, we found it essential that we educate our staff about the Act and then share that knowledge with our coffee suppliers in a Spanish-language seminar, and also with our roaster customers,” explains Griswold.“
