Tea & Coffee 07/02 - Editor's Letter (#)
„When the Coops were researching a North American roaster for a partnership, they found similar qualities and characteristics in the operations and culture inherent at First Colony Coffee & Tea that their country posesses: they are a people rich in tradition, formality and protocol. The Coop sought to learn the operations of a roasting company, and then cultivate a coffee to accommodate specialty roasters. They wanted a closer tie with the end consumer and to produce a value-added product. Through this partnership, the Coops have learned about distribution channels and in developing specialty coffees for them.“

Tea & Coffee 05/03 - Getting the Skinny on Sample Roasters: Part I
„Then, one roaster manufacturer posed this question: “Do these small machines really produce a decent enough roast to help determine a green sample’s worth?” It all comes down to that. In response, listed below are some new sample roasters that just might help in the green coffee buying decision. For the record, in my opinion, not one of these machines has the kind of variable settings that would qualify them as a commercial roaster. But, the point of this article is to determine if they could assist in finding a great coffee.“

Tea & Coffee 05/01 - Life in a Vacuum
„But larger roasters have a question: “If my customers refuse to buy coffee from a small local roaster and they will only buy coffee where they can do so as inexpensively and as conveniently as possible, why shouldn’t our company try and provide them the freshest tasting product possible?” The realities of the marketplace certainly can chill or stifle the most romantic notions. It’s true, most people are not going to buy coffee from anywhere but their grocery store and they will probably even buy it ground or grind it in the store. For them, the issue is not whether to provide them with an Ethiopian Harrar and a Yemen Mocha that are fresh enough so that the difference between these two great coffees can be appreciated. Rather, the challenge is to get whatever coffee this customer wants to buy (and it will probably be a Colombian coffee, flavored coffee or the generic “house blend” of yore) and try to deliver that coffee as freshly as is possible to that customer.“
