  „The group argues that many small farmers are impoverished by selling their coffee below market price, and large bean growers are more likely to clear cut rain forests to grow coffee beans. The group then sells raw coffee beans to middlemen called roasters in the United States who toast the beans brown. The roasters sell the beans to retail shops.“

  „Kenyan coffee is wet-processed and sold by the size of the bean, with AA signifying the largest beans, followed by A and B. The best Kenyan coffee, called Estate Kenya, can cost twice as much as regular AA's, but is worth the price.

  „So, the next best way to store coffee is to store in roasted but whole bean form. Grinding your own beans is pretty simple, and will be worth the effort.

  „illy carefully roasts its coffee to the optimum level to bring out all the flavors inherent in the bean. illycaffè purchases only Arabica beans for its blend and sorts the beans using electronic instruments which evaluate the color and automatically reject beans that are either too green or overripe. About 50 coffee beans are needed to produce one cup of espresso, and only one bad bean can ruin its flavor. In order to better balance the aroma, illycaffè prepares the blend from nine different lots of Arabica before roasting and uses an air cooling system versus the more common water cooling system.“

  „But the Arabs had a strict policy not to export any fertile beans, so that coffee could not be cultivated anywhere else. The coffee bean is the seed of the coffee tree, but when stripped of its outer layers it becomes infertile. The race to make off with some live coffee trees or beans was eventually won by the Dutch in 1616, who brought some back to Holland where they were grown in greenhouses.“
