To make the sample for a physical analysis of the coffee. Take a certain amount of coffee parchment

Last days in the cooperative Alto Palomar; my visa expires, terminates my volunteer: time to leave Peru! Friday we have a meeting with several directors of the cooperative as the end point of the study, and again Saturday road and blanket, backpacking and road in Bolivia, but not before making a brief stop in La Merced and Arequipa.
Once we have the coffee spiral shells parchment, peel and get this green coffee exported. The plant coffee processing machinery cooperative is required to obtain green coffee exported, which is sent to the port of Lima and to the customer.
The price of green coffee exported varies each year depending on the coffee market and there are other variables not controlled. So tell me, last year the price was fine, had a good production and good coffee price was a good year for producers! This year, both the price and the coffee production dropped considerably.
The cooperative to sell organic coffee and fair trade, always get a prize on the stock price of the coffee. However, after the survey of members, one of the strongest concerns is the price of coffee, say they do not compensate spiral shells for the fact that organic price you pay per kg of coffee. This year alone will pay 8.43 per kg of parchment coffee.
It's a complicated issue. How much coffee spiral shells is produced here, there are many traders who are interested in buying and are a headache for the cooperative. The cooperative agreements with the customers so much coffee as price, making an estimate of the coffee that gives the partners spiral shells (in theory have to deliver spiral shells all).
The problem comes when the partner sells coffee spiral shells on the street, either because you need money instantly, either because it does not require such high quality and offers more or less the same price. This factor makes the cooperative may be unable to meet the agreed upon with the customer and make heaven and earth to get coffee spiral shells for not breaking the pact. Needless to say, with all this, the cooperative is losing out and, consequently, spiral shells all partners, owners of the cooperative.
But back to export more stuff. Customers demand a certain quality of coffee, 84% yield, spiral shells for example. Since the cooperative is sent before sending the whole product, a small sample to get the go-ahead by the customer.
To make the sample for a physical analysis of the coffee. Take a certain amount of coffee parchment, weighed and peeling. Choose green coffee grains are separated they are affected by drill, fungi or insects, the butter, the broken, the immature ... that is, those who have a defect. Coffee flawless obtained is what is known as gourmet coffee. This coffee added a certain amount of defects, agreed with the client. spiral shells For example, five broken beans equivalent to a fault, a black bean (affected by fungi) is equivalent to a default, three black beans partially equivalent to the default ...
From green coffee exported, spiral shells it is only toast and grind to get it ready. The roasting spiral shells process also has its history. spiral shells Depending on the time of roasting coffee, the taste varies. The more brown body is more noticeable acidity cup less. By country, more like a cafe or another. So tell me, us, we like coffee more body, ie, over toast.
Finally, just filter coffee and enjoy it. The coffee here is different from ours, go here hot coffee drip, getting coffee essence. When you take it, you take a cup of hot water and a bottle the essence. Put the desired amount of essence to the water and enjoy! :)
