Working in my roastery this week, I have been sampling and drinking my coffees. The two roasted so far are a Brazil origin micro- lot and a Yemen . Both are described as natural or ” dried -in-cherry ” process. The Brazil bean finishes a bit larger than the Yemen , and has a very different taste, though both are ( in my opinion) very good. The Brazil comes across as somewhat “nutty” while the Yemeni is almost ” winey “. My third roasting cycle includes a Columbia micro-lot. It roasts up as a classic washed Columbia with a slight tree-fruit finish . Any wine overtones lean towards the lighter vintages.
Good Day
Hope everyone has a good day!
Is it always transactional?
Howdy, thinking of transactional processes. Does Goodwill have any place in business? ( Not Goodwill Industries ) . There is a line for ” Intangibles” in accountancy and law. Is money so all -powerful that currency supercedes human effort, moral psychology, ” freely giving”, mutual care and concern, the Social Contract? I know this isn’t coffee talk, it is just a thought that invaded my conscious stream . Casting it upon the waters of the internet.
…A year later…I still do not know….
Coffee roasting
Good day! My roasting cycle usually takes place in the morning when it’s cool. Today It looks like about 25 lbs ( 12 kilograms ) of completed beans.
Coffee micro now offers Stripe as a way to pay and order
My Stripe moniker is CoffeeMicro. Or Coffee ( no spaces)Micro. The price is still $20.00 a package delivered by USPS. If you order more than one package (say two packages -12 oz size) the price would be $37.00.

Peace and Coffee
Coffee and peace, coffee and love, sometimes other’s views get in the way of my coffee sales efforts. I started my company as a way of sharing radical Gospel-based social discourse. Some of my views are pretty skewed according to others. I get this from the interjections of others into my little world. Some reading this know my world shrank after 02/11/2018. It shrank even more when her family pushed me away. I think my belief in shared values is no longer as valued as in the past. My prayer life is about the same , however, my involvement in church life has changed.
Real coffee at the Farmers Market
I am at the Farmers Market many times . I make the attempt to sell coffee on a regular basis to a regular customer . Mother’s Day weekend was difficult!
But I am grateful. Have a great day.
On the Coffee Trail
Traveling West on the Santa Fe Trail headed for home. Boston for a day at the Coffee Expo, Flowers for Sally at one of our favorite beaches, then to Northern Maine train time. Now on the way home to New Mexico. Watching the prairies go by.
Coffee Expo 2022
Masked for travel , on the train, after networking my way east on Amtrak, I attended the Specialty Coffee Association ‘s Annual Coffee Expo. For Friday only… April 8 was a good day. I was weary from traveling, and really not ready for crowds.
