Reference of Terms and Grading for our Coffee (#)
„The reason to change our cup-ratins system was to standardize it with the Specialty Coffee Association of America (SCAA) evaluation method. But adter serving on several cupping panels and discussing the SCAA system at length with other judges, I found certain problems that could not be addressed by giving each of 5 sensory ratings a 1-10 score. This system below uses the common terms (or ones that will make immediate sense to SCAA judges) but weights the scores differently.“

„LONG BEACH, CA - The Specialty Coffee Association of America (SCAA) supports the efforts of Oxfam International to raise awareness of the social, environmental, and economic impacts of the current crisis on coffee farmers world-wide. The long-term viability of the specialty coffee industry is dependent upon the sustainability of those who produce high-quality coffee. For this reason, it is in the best interest of specialty coffee roasters and retailers to build long-term relationships that provide fair prices to coffee producers.“

„Louis in 1904. But according to Ted Lingle, executive director of the Specialty Coffee Association of America (SCAA), the drink has just as much potential to become an American classic. He says the Coffee Development Group launched the first iced cappuccino during the 1984 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles. The drink received a huge response from both local and international visitors.“

„ The Specialty Coffee Association of America (SCAA) presents educational programs throughout the year, but unlike the wine industry, the coffee sector has never been successful in developing an industry-recognized curriculum for the noble art and science of coffee tasting, blending, roasting, and processing. You can, of course, enroll in coffee chemistry in Bologna (Italy) and obtain a Ph.D. in the physics of coffee brewing, but this will not guarantee a fortune in your coffee business.“

„In addition to the annual meeting, co-op members gather informally at the yearly Specialty Coffee Association of America (SCAA) Conference, they communicate via e-mail and phone, and they travel together to origin as often as possible. Origin trips have become more frequent and better attended over the past year. Last year, half of the members traveled to Mexico and Guatemala, and this year, almost everyone went to either Ethiopia, Mexico, Guatemala, or Nicaragua.“
