Re: Coffee Skyrockets as Weather Affects Crops
I guess we posted at the same time, but thanks for that info.

Roasting them seems pretty easy.

How are things in Wisconsin?
My son and I have been eying that state for a future trip.
 Quoting: KoFFee_


Roasting is really easy.
It takes a few tries to fine tune it to your taste, but a really simple process.
I've done it in cast iron over a fire before. LoL.

Most folks visit Wisconsin in the Summer,
but I love canoeing in the Fall. ;-`)

Fall sounds perfect and colorful!

That's a beautiful picture you posted!


Now I have to show off one that my son took in Lapeer, MI:

 Quoting: Dr. Acula


We've done quite a bit of traveling throughout the state.

Up north is nice, but after seeing the scenery out west, it pales in comparison.

I'm not originally from Michigan and lately I've been thinking about moving out of state. We'll see.

No...not Coffee!
Guess we'll be stocking up as well!
I can do without a lot of things, coffee isn't one of them.
 Quoting: my2centsworth


Same here, except I think I could've done with less today--I just realized I'm on my 4th cup and feeling a little jittery.

 Quoting: KoFFee_


4th cup jitters ? That must be some coffee ! I'm usually carrying #4 out the door with me for the drive to work !

If you have a Freds nearby, go stock up. $2.50 a brick for the store brand and it's drinkable.

 Quoting: AC 5341


I used to be that way--drank about 3 cups in the morning, then brought a quart thermos to work. When I was in college, we would stay up the night before exams, drinking endless pots of coffee!

As I get older, it's become evident to me that I can't handle too much caffeine anymore.

What is Fred's?

The bluegrass state! We visited Lexington and looked around at homes back in '94.

I can't remember the hotel we stayed in, but at the time, a basketball tournament was going on and the hotel was bustling.

Hotel staff told us there are two things you must love if you live in Kentucky--basketball and horses.

It was beautiful there.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 23011194


I did that last year, I had my morning cup then substituted herbal tea for my hot beverage the rest of the day.

My problem is not the caffeine, I just love the flavor of a good cup of coffee! So I missed it, and after a few months went back to my daily 4-5 cups.

It's a discount retailer like a Dollar General. Coffee is suprisingly good for the price. We buy 4 a week, drink 2 and put up 2.

Re: Coffee Skyrockets as Weather Affects Crops
Mmmmmm, coffee ice cubes, a smart idea for iced coffee!

:cicu:
 Quoting: KoFFee_


Why did I not think of that before?!

That is AWESOME!
 Quoting: Dr. Acula


When making a new pot, I use to throw out the coffee that was made earlier, but now I make ice cubes with it. Iced coffee isn't so diluted that way when you use the cubes.

Leftover coffee is good in beef stew, too. I usually add a little to the broth when I make it in the crock pot.
 Quoting: KoFFee_


Rub steaks with the morning's wet coffee grounds, grill over open coals.


MMMMMMMMM - Amazing!

Re: Coffee Skyrockets as Weather Affects Crops
Answered my own question:

Green Coffee Beans for Long Term Storage

Did you know that ground coffee or your typical coffee beans won’t store all that long? When you think about the things that would be in demand during and after a collapse, you know that COFFEE will be near the top of the list!

So, what’s the best way to buy coffee so that it will store for a long time? Buy ‘green’. That is, green coffee beans. What are green coffee beans? They are coffee beans in their natural state, before roasting! When you buy them in the store, they’ve already been roasted.

I’ve read a number of articles over the years regarding roasting your own green coffee beans, and it apparently is not that difficult. I admit that at this time I’ve not done it myself, but it seems pretty darn simple. It’s all a matter of how long they’re roasted as to the resulting strength of the flavor.

Can't argue with that!

And seriously, coffee grounds rubbed on steak before grilling? Hmmmmmm, I think I can see that it could be very good.

I'm making a meatloaf tonight, do you think I should add some coffee to the mixture?
