CoffeeGeek - Above and Beyond - Grower Relationships ()

  „Other companies are creating relationships in entirely different ways. Portland Roasting, a Portland, Ore., company known for its environmental and social choices, recently entered a unique relationship with a Guatemalan grower, Sandra Isabel Roche and Farm El Paternal. The partnership will result in a new roast water treatment facility on the coffee farm, as well as fair wages to the coffee growers, and increased coffee quality. "We care about things, so we've decided to do it ourselves," says Mark Stell, managing partner for Portland Roasting.“

  „If you want to roast your own, then go for a light roast. The final roasting is done in the Cezve, so if your roast is already too dark you are not going to get the right effect. Remember, the lighter the roast, the more acidic the coffee and the higher the caffeine content. So you should experment a bit to determine what you like best.“
