Join the conversation on all things coffee—brewing tips, roasting advice, and stories from fellow coffee lovers.
Introduction Specialty coffee sourcing has historically been anchored in relationship-based procurement models, with direct trade emerging as a dominant paradigm over the past two decades. This model emphasized disintermediation, traceability, and value redistribution along the supply chain, allowing roasters to establish direct commercial and agronomic relationships with producers. The result was a system that prioritized…
The Environmental Impact of Coffee Roasting: How to Choose Eco-Friendly and Sustainable Roasting Solutions Coffee roasting contributes a measurable portion of a coffee supply chain’s carbon footprint, and equipment choice at the roast stage can materially reduce greenhouse gas emissions, VOCs, and particulates. This guide explains what those impacts are, how different roaster technologies affect…
The global supply chain landscape stands at a critical inflection point. As we progress through 2026, businesses face unprecedented pressure to modernize antiquated logistics systems while simultaneously navigating an increasingly complex web of international trade standards. This comprehensive analysis examines the convergence of technological innovation, regulatory evolution, and geopolitical realignment reshaping how goods move across…
Introduction to Coffee Degassing What is Coffee Degassing? Coffee degassing is the natural process by which freshly roasted coffee beans release carbon dioxide (CO₂) that has been trapped within their cellular structure during roasting. When green coffee beans are exposed to high temperatures during the roasting process, chemical reactions occur that produce significant amounts of…
Explore advancements in cyclic voltammetry as a tool for objectively measuring beverage strength and roasting levels. Based on recent research, this method decouples roast color from intensity—unlocking new opportunities for quality control and standardized evaluation. Roast Measurement via Electrochemistry and Image Analysis: Recent Research on Coffee Roasting Progression In recent years, electrochemistry—specifically cyclic voltammetry (CV)—has…
