Re: Speciality Coffee????
How many kilos (@ $40/kg green) Cup of Excellence would you like to put into your next house coffee to sell at $25/kg? Let me know because well happily buy it!
Tedious is people talking cheap shots in public space. Simple rules exist for a reason Jason, dont break them and we all get along just fine.
Thats an interesting thought.
I dont like your chances of getting SCAA to ever change their mind but I have always wondered why AASCA have to follow their lead instead of cutting their own path. I for one would like to see the definition changed because if the SCAA grading process is followed to the letter all dry process coffees score low. The SCAA scoring will always rate something like a Jamacian Blue Mountain higher than a wild dry process Harrar and as we all know... One mans coffee fault is another mans fruit and berry pleasure.
I can understand that concept too. Having a quick look though the membership list of Austral Asian SPECIALTY Coffee Assn (AASCA) roasters you would have to assume that most of their membership is basing their status on that too.

I guess that leads to the next quesiton of:
How many Speciaty coffees should a roaster roast to call themselves a specialty coffee roaster?
1 a year? 5 every week? 20% of their annual turnover? only ever roast specialty coffee?
