How are they supposed to "process" it? Every business customer (cafe, chain, large company for their office coffee makers) who knows what they are doing, buys these raw beans. In Italy, at least in proper places, coffee is roasted SAME day as it is served, or previous evening worst case. You suggest doing it months in advance, then ship roasted beans from Ethiopia? Who's going to drink what results?
- cat199 7y agoI would bet money that the vast majority of coffee consumed globally is purchased from another entity and already roasted more than 1 week before.
- anovikov 7y agoThat's totally true! That's the main reason why most coffee we drink is such a trash. But, roasting it months in advance vs days in advance will bring a whole new dimension to that.
- stephen_g 7y agoThat’s interesting. The rule of thumb in Australia for speciality coffee is to rest it for a few days (around 2-4) in a bag or container with a one way valve, so it can degas before using it.
