With over 800 billion cups of coffee consumed each year worldwide coffee. It's kind of a big deal
at 56% more
Americans drink coffee than don't and all told they spend forty billion dollars a year on it with over fifty [five] thousand coffee shops in
The us and many sees you barely more than a few blocks from the nearest [wan] provides still too far
You'll likely find coffee in a break room any restaurant gas station or even hotel. Lobby coffee is pretty much anywhere
But what if that all went away, and you still really want your cup of coffee
Then where would you have to go and how hard would it be well? That's what I'm going to find out
despite its usual abundant convenience coffee itself isn't actually all that convenient first off coffee only grows in the tropics and then
Usually only in the mountains for the extreme temperature swings between day and nights help get the coffee strong flavor
To decide the best location to get my beans
[I] sampled a wide variety from Cafe imports and discovered the Mexican beans from the state of Oaxaca [where] actually what I prefer best
So that's what I'm gonna have to go the mountains of Oaxaca with six hours of flights
Followed up by [eight] hour bumpy car Ride down the narrow, Whiny Mexican roads?
The end of the Journey I arrived at the Tiny village of guadalupe Miramar I
Could tell we arrived because I could look right out the window and see coffee trees right there beside the road
next morning [run] to the field and start the harvest [affair] a

Pororo ho going through by hand we collected the barracks selecting out just the red ones and throwing them in the basket
[I] never actually seen a coffee tree before so is rather surprising to see this is where your morning cup of coffee comes from I?
Made a drink from these trees, I'd expected to turn up more like a fruit drink

Hostel is an official Middle was [Benina]. Now are picking the handful of beans
I need my cup [of] coffee wasn't too horrible couldn't imagine spending my days
Traversing the rugged Mountain sides picking berries off of the trees every single day
Next up the berries need to be separated so Mammoth [prolly] on who will help me wash and separate the good bad berries [Roma] Novias
Buenos dias MI Nombre Es
por La Espanol t's y
pidemo hacer Lo Miri Este ese Vasya
The top of floating berries give me some flashbacks to another instant from an earlier project
The coffee cherries are immersed in water bad or unripe fruit will float and are discarded well the good berries will sink to the bottom
After that was a puppy machine to separate the skin and pulp from the beans
At her Cuando Esto G
the rising Sun was starting to get into my eyes a little bit and
Foley on graciously gave me one [of] his hats to help keep the sun on my eyes that it
It was a little small
Of all the people, I met along the way [crow] [leone] was one of my favorite very energetic and Super friendly
[I] still have his hat
we met him because he also runs a local corner store [where] we first ran into him the first night we went to get a
soda
Despite also being a farmer for over 50 years
He's still been having difficulty breaking into the market and selling his coffee at a fair market price knowing
How much is normally spent on seemingly overpriced cups of coffee?
It was a strange perspective to meet someone who's not even able to get a fair [price] for the actual beans themselves
Next my beans still need to be dried. So I laid them out in the sun where they dry for several days
From these the poor quality beans are removed and the rest are ready to be exported
All right, so now I got my coffee to take back with me usually go through an extra step where they remove the outer skin before exporting
But I'm going to take this home and do that manually myself
But the outer parchment later the beans remove time to roast them in preparation for this [project]
I previously learned some roasting tips from the master roaster at [Dunn] Brothers
so just slowly roasting my beans until they reach just the right color and to listen for the distinctive first crack for Lighter roast or
a second crack if I want a darker roast
All right, I think we're hearing some of the first crack now
Yep, definitely in the first crack
get it into a medium roast now just about
Where I want it, so I was gonna give it
Definitely crack it so I think we're basically done now
I'm gonna take it off put it into the colander here and look cool
After carefully cooling laying the beans breathe next up they'll need to be ground and brewed hustle in preparation
I'll end Several Possible brewing methods from Jackson FPS coffee
He claimed in the end if you know what you're doing simply equipment can be used I can brew you a good cup of coffee
Using the cheapest like piece of stove top cookware and a sock as a filter so that's what I'm gonna do use a sock
Makes a modern trade in specialization you [have] a fresh cup of coffee [ready] for you in minutes almost anywhere in the world
But without that convenience it took me a six-hour flight an eight-hour drive an hour of harvesting by hand
several hours of washing and separating Several days of sun drying
Then bringing them home to roast and brew myself
And the worst part of all is that I to do all that before having my morning cup of coffee
but now I have it and
[it] tastes, it's all right
chocolatey
Leathery it's a little bit of a grassy taste. You have the same time a little bit of a Darker roast taste [Dark] Dark
It's got a hint of coffee, too it
Doesn't even taste like dirty laundry, but kind of a inconsistent [roast]. It's kind of left with the interesting mix
I'm glad I can say that if it came down to it. I can make a cup of coffee from scratch, but in the meantime
I'm glad I can just go down [to] any local coffee shop and just order a cup of coffee and enjoy it a
lot more convenient
