Tea & Coffee 04/04 - A Chat With David Griswold (#)

„At Boston, people could judge what my value system is, sort of on the breadth and scope of what happened at the Boston show in terms of seminars and kinds of diversity. The conference was about sending the message, “how do we feel about our partners?” And we talked about things like pricing systems and excellence and quality- things I think really resonate with our members, because I think not everyone is going to be into the purchasing of coffee like an importer would be. What I liked about that show was that I think it really reflected the broadbase of our membership and their interests. And then, the second thing that you do as president is that you really try to help set a good road map, because you have over 120 or so volunteers on the committees, who meet several times a year and can provide a really good idea of where the organization is going.“

Fresh Cup Magazine (#)

„When we talk about a specialty coffee, particularly at source, we inevitably talk about things like which cooperative the coffee came from, how that co-op is organized and what sort of growing practices the co-op adheres to. We talk about cooperatives, because they have come to define much of what we consider to be specialty coffee. But in this industry, the cooperative concept has typically begun and ended at origin—until now. Stirring among the bellows of a little more than a dozen small North American roasters has been an idea longstanding among small coffee producers but new to specialty coffee buyers: a roaster's cooperative, appropriately named Cooperative Coffees.“

Candy, Flowers... and Coffee? (INeedCoffee.com) (#)

„Different from the more conventional permutations of Men/Women Seeking Women/Men one usually finds in the classifieds, the "I Saw You" section is the last refuge for the faint of heart, those who never summoned up the nerve to speak to the attractive stranger who smiled at them on the subway or brushed against them on the dance floor. The man taking out the classic "I Saw You" ad (for, indeed, it usually seems to be a man) describes how he still can’t forget the stranger’s beautiful smile, how he’s been kicking himself ever since for not having the nerve to talk to her, and extends an invite to coffee. Until this week, though, I’d never subjected my "I Saw You" stereotype to any amount of scientific scrutiny. Instead, I would like to permit you the reader to judge for yourself after reviewing these three "I Saw You" ads from a recent City Paper:“

The SCAE Awards for Coffee Excellence (#)

„Danny O'Neill: while most US Specialty roasters concentrate on marketing, Danny kept pressing for the best beans, leading by his example and always displaying the most unhindered enthusiasm when talking about his vision of the perfect cup of coffee. He is probably seen by some in the coffee industry as a madman for his practice of selecting the coffee he will purchase before knowing the price, but his undisputable success with this strategy speaks loader than any grand speech. During his period as SCAA President he was able to contaminate many with the said enthusiasm, attracting attention to coffee quality which was somewhere in the background as a priority to many in the American market. “

„A recent study conducted by students at the University of California-Santa Cruz found that the child malnutrition rates in the country's coffee regions are at 21 percent, compared to a national rate of nine percent. "When we say a coffee farmer is at risk, we're not just talking about the risk of losing their home," says Mike Maxey, Nicaragua's director for the United States Agency for International Development (USAID). "We are talking about people who are starving. Seventy percent of the rural population is living on less than two dollars a day."“

„In fact, if enjoyment such as this is not allowed to be interpretive and creative (and even in its most technical it is) it is at that point it becomes chest-thumping and preposterous. When we talk about coffee being "chocolatey" or "winey" it is not because it tastes as if someone literally dumped Hershey’s Cocoa Power or a glass of wine in the coffee. We says this because some quality of chocolate or wine is hinted at in the very complex tastes of the cup, and we say this in respect to the other cups of coffee on the cupping table, and in respect to all our experience distinguishing and describing coffee flavor.“

„Organized into basic categories like "Sweet Talk" (questions involving sugar), "Fire and Ice" (we learn why water boils and freezers burn, among other things), and "Tools and Technology" (the best kind of frying pan, for example), the book also provides illustrative recipes like Black Raspberry Coffee Cake (to demonstrate how metrics work in recipes) and Bob's Mahogany Game Hens (showing what brining can do). With technical illustrations, tips, and more, the book offers abundant evidence that learning the whys and hows of cooking can help us enjoy the culinary process almost as much as its results. --Arthur Boehm“

„It's easy to laugh at it (especially Phil Hartman's cameo and the "Electric Company" parody with the German nun), but you can't help but be a little freaked out by it. The "Coffee Talk" sketch features hilarous cameos by Madonna (who delightfully disses herself), RoseannEe Barr and Barbara Streisand. The Material Girl also pops up in "Wayne's Wolrd" in the infamous fanatsy sequence. It's quite gross but very funny to watch Wayne and Madonna tongue - kiss each other and to see Dana Carvey dressed in that balck outfit (the sequence is a parody of the controversial "Justify My Love" video).“

„Salvador: Ah Pacamara! Like Maragogype it is a large bean arabica varietal and these are very big and potently bright, I know in beer they talk about ''hop-heads'' and in wine there is ''dry'' but in coffee there are legions of people who feel that brightness IS the flavor of coffee and eschew the low-acid coffees that completely miss the front of your palate. These are the Kenya people (who should be thrilled this year with the quality of the crop) and the Costa Rican folks. Well, they need to get hip to the Pacamara.“

Coffee In Israel (INeedCoffee.com) (#)

„During the 1940's and 50's, Israel (a young country now only 52 years old) used to have coffee shops that had a thriving business selling...soda water (flavored and unflavored). That's what people could afford when they were looking for a quiet spot to sit and talk with friends, or argue ideology (a great pastime amongst the ideologues and writers of this new immigrant society.) Coffee was rare in the country that had to ration food during difficult war times and had to invest in the very basics to absorb immigrants and post WWII refugees.“

The Coffees of Guatemala (#)

„(BTW, this is pronounced BUR-BONE, not like the alcohol). It's what people in coffee called "good transparency" and in wine they talk about "terroir" - tasting the soil, the varietal, the beverage as a pure result of the place it came from. It is a bright cup with crisp acidity, backed by vanilla hints, and even on my lighter roasts I get quite a lot of body. I would call this coffee the epitome of a "classic" cup profile.“
