A few days ago we went up into the mountains. Doi Inthanon is the highest mountain in Thailand.
We visited a Karen Village on the way up. They grow coffee in this village. After sampling some coffee we bought some green beans to roast for our new coffee business.
Here is a coffee bush with beans ripening. They'll be ready to harvest in December.
Now the drum is powered by a motor and the fire is gas. Way easier. There was coffee roasting in this machine while we were there.
Boiling the water to pour over the ground coffee beans.

A basket showing a selection of coffee beans with the pulp still on, some green beans and beans already roasted.
The roasting used to be done with this machine. The fire was of bamboo sticks under the drum, and the drum with the coffee in it was rotated by the guy on the bicycle.
Now the drum is powered by a motor and the fire is gas. Way easier. There was coffee roasting in this machine while we were there.
Grinding the coffee ready for the taste test.
No picture of us drinking the coffee, but it tasted great.
