Roaster School Online - Ep #10 - Buying Your Green Coffee, Part 1

[@BeeDee108]

It's not often I comment on YT videos, but I really want to thank you guys for these vids. They are informative and in-depth. I think the coffee industry has been somewhat secretive regarding some of the things you guys delve into. Classes on some of these topics can cost hundreds of dollars for a few hours, or a day. So thank you very much for all the time and effort Joe, Dave and the rest of the team put into this

Thanks for encouraging words for roasters that feel too small.

Try Papua New Guinea green coffee. It's all organically grown and has this pure natural taste.

[@masato-lee]

One of the first specialty coffee I tried was a washed Blue Mountain from that country and it was delightful. Well-balanced, buttery, smoky and overall a clean cup.

[@privadacoffee8376]

In a climate controlled environment, what do you think about storing green coffee in something like Coleman coolers? Burlap bags in coolers? Would that be a smart way to store for about 3-6 months?

[@MillCityRoastersMN]

Good question, but we simply don't know. The two things you worry about are drying the coffee resulting in loss of flavor and moisture condenstation in the bag resulting in unpleasent ferment flavors aka "baggy" coffee. We suspect the cooler would keep the coffee marginally more stable and reduce transpiration, but the lack of airflow could create a moisture problem leading to ferment. If the coffee was at a solid 10% moisture, it might be okay. It might be a problem at 12% or above. In other words, it might be successful with a dryer washed coffee and unsuccessful with a fresh crop higher moisture natural processed coffee. Or not. YMMV.

great conversation, really helpful!

[@davidborton]

Glad you gents found the session helpful. We will run "Part 2, Buying Your Greens" next month.

[@ilbarista2575]

love your videos! I was already somehow interested in getting to roast some coffee. While I was searching for some info, I found your channel, after watching the first videos, my team found a cafe to rent... if we can get hands on this cafe, I may get into roasting some espresso for our cafe and coffee distribution. I hope I will learn a lot more from you, before I will get an SCA Europe Roaster Degree

[@ELotion]

"I'm your Data" I can't be the only one who caught this. Joe??

[@abcdefgh-x7o]

what does it mean to go deep on coffee?

[@MillCityRoastersMN]

Holding more green coffee in inventory than you might be accustomed to.

[@Sun8880]

请问哪里有中文翻译的视频？

[@rudysaldivar4228]

The big question is, how do you know how long the importer/wholesaler has sat on it.

[@MillCityRoastersMN]

Simple, if you have skill to sample roast, cup, and analyze the coffee and the wisdom to develop professional relationships with importers like Cafe Imports.

[@GhostlyRoaster]

Another great video fellas.

[@Felo747]

[@jacobsack]

took me 6 minutes to realise there was a Union flag on the cup

[@michaelrhoads6349]

I'm dumbfounded how people spend thousands of dollars on Roasters, sample roasters, cooling systems, etc. If you roast coffee like it was roasted 200 years ago you can build your own equipment & roast over an open fire. People claim to be master roasters, but all they do is run a program on a computer & the machine controls everything. Do your research on fire roasting coffee & you can start roasting for under $1K. I can put you in touch with a company in Tucson, AZ that will custom build you a roasting barrel. I'd put the web address on here, but I don't want to advertise another company on another company's channel.

[@MillCityRoastersMN]

You're dumbfounded in the way a blind man is dumbfounded by the concept of color. Your personal inability to percieve a difference in cup quality is a bummer, but not proof a couple of billion speciality coffee drinkers are wrong. Roast on whatever you want and drink whatever vile concoction makes you happy. We're only here to help people that care about quality to do a better job with their coffee. If that's not you, quit watching.
