Packaging coffee on a warm day |
While at the Crouse's house we had the pleasure of meeting Carlos and offered a little help to him sorting through green coffee beans, picking out the ones that were too yellow, had brown spots or otherwise defective. Part of the Crouse's work is to assist local coffee farmers to improve their product and find more stable markets to sell. After a batch of sorting was complete, we had the delight of accompanying JR taking the coffee beans to be roasted and packaged. After a fantastic drive down into the jungle we arrived at a friendly small time roasting place we were able to see first hand the process and a glimpse into Cosmic Cafe production. The place smelled wonderful, I was loving the hot weather and learning what goes into a cup of joe. After a great day we drove home, opened a package of the coffee and enjoyed our freshest cup of coffee ever.
