Kopi Luwak is crappy coffee | Chazzano Coffee

https://shopchazzanocoffee.com/kopi-luwak-is-crappy-coffee/
If you ask me about Kopi Luwak, I will supply the usual answer, “Why would I want to drink crappy coffee?” However, the true reason is that there is no food product that is worthwhile if it causes undue stress or pain to an animal. However, if anyone wants to buy some of the best specialty coffee ever, I am willing to sell any of my coffees for $200/ lb.

Tips on Roasting Coffee in Cool Weather - The Captain's Coffee

http://www.thecaptainscoffee.com/single-page-fix-learning-center-articles/51-tips-on-roasting-coffee-in-cool-weather
Most people choose to do their coffee roasting outdoors. Typically, they do it on a porch or in the garage. Aside from it being a nice excuse to be outside, it also makes dealing with the smoke from the roast a non-issue. And the great smell makes the neighbors jealous. But what to do when the weather gets cold?

The End of Cheap Coffee: Why the Diner Staple Is About to Become a Luxury - Lifestyle - GOOD

http://www.good.is/post/the-end-of-cheap-coffee
Mother Nature might be on the side of Giuliano and his cohorts. At the exact moment that rare beans are becoming all the rage, all beans are becoming rarer. The price of a cup of coffee—whether it be a $6 pour-over, a $2.50 dark roast at Starbucks, or a $1.50 mug of diner swill—is being driven up by a complex combination of weather events, pest and fungus outbreaks, speculation on commodities exchanges, an unstable labor market in the developing world, and an unprecedented thirst for good coffee among a growing global middle class. The problem, in simple economic terms, is that supply has gone down and demand has gone up.

The Disk: Permanent Aeropress Filter by Coava

The Aeropress doesn't really require any upgrades. The paper disc filters are inexpensive, work well, and a stack of them lasts a long, long time. But I was excited anyway to check out the Disk, a stainless steel filter for the Aeropress to use instead of the stock paper filters.

Homebrewing: Espresso Stout (INeedCoffee.com)

http://www.ineedcoffee.com/01/espressostout?page=1
"As a homebrewer who also happens to be obsessed with coffee, I found that too many of the coffee or espresso flavored stout recipes I found seemed to consider coffee more of an afterthought than an important factor in the success of the beverage. I have always found it odd that brewers would take so much time to pick out just the right hops, yeast and perfect water chemistry, only to say something so general as, "Add a pound of cracked coffee to the brew pot." Lightly cracking coffee is supposed to compensate for the longer extraction time in the brew, but overextracted coffee is as undesirable in the beer as it would be on its own. Some homebrewer recipes even go as far as advising instant coffee as an ingredient. This is intolerable advice. Over a few years, I have tried several methods, and the one I most enjoyed is the one that I am about to share. "

Moka Pot Stove (INeedCoffee.com)

"I found a solution at ZENSTOVES.COM which describes a number of options for making alcohol stoves yourself out of recyclable and readily available materials. ... The small stove has been modified slightly make it specific for brewing. A stove made for boiling water will heat up the mokka pot too quickly and the brew just won't be what it should be. ... I made a stand out of an empty coffee can and some coat-hanger wire. Light the stove, place the stand over top, and put the mokka pot on top. In the magical three minutes, I have a fresh pot of mokka pot espresso to enjoy! With practise, I have found just the right ammount of fuel so that it extinguishes itself shortly after the coffee is ready."
