Coffee is here! Roasting up 100% organic Peruvian beans this week. These beans are from northern Peru, the Jaen/San Ignacio area, from a cooperative of 1,900 farmers that puts a premium on a fair price for its members.
I am really interested in this supplier as they have family ties to Peru and have a mission of working as closely to the farmer as possible in order to better benefit both ends of the coffee equation.
So, what do I have available? Well, some of this batch is already claimed, but I still have 11 14-oz. bags. $7.50 per bag.
Have I explained why I sell it in 14 oz. bags? I roast in full pound increments, but about 12% is lost as evaporated moisture from the beans. The math there was staggering, finding the common denominator between the amount of pounds purchased and the amount of pounds sold, until it dawned on me to reduce the selling size and price accordingly. Well, the math involved was really more of a fourth-fifth grade level, not really staggering, but it was too hard to do while doing five other things at once.
As always, thanks for checking out this blog! If you would like some coffee, call, email, or message me on FB, and I'll get it ready!
