Why is it that when i comment on my own blog I have to type in some random letters to make sure i'm not a robot, but when I comment on other blogspot blogs I don't have to? Weird...
Anyway, did you know how much effort goes into making good coffee?
"Coffee bushes must be grown in shade -- neither too much, nor too little. A hillside is best -- but it mustn't be too steep. After 3 years, the bushes will start to produce bright-red coffee "cherries", which are picked, processed to remove the pulp, and spread out to dry for days, ideally on concrete. They are milled again to separate the bean, which needs to rest, preferably for a few months. Only then can it be roasted, ground and brewed into the stuff that dreams are quelled with." - The Economist
Wow, bet you didn't know that huh? Next time I have that Blue Mountain or Ethiopian Harra at TCC I know that it's worth what it really costs! But how about those 50 cent kopi at the coffeeshop? Wonder if it requires as much effort to make those? Does it really require 20 times as much effort to brew a $10 blue mountain? I'm not much of a coffee addict, but I always appreciate a nice cuppa gourmet coffee on a cold rainy day..... ;)
