February 22nd 11am - 12:30pm
After the presentation, you'll be able to impress your friends with your new coffee knowledge...
Why look for sustainable products? Alpen Sierra will be discussing coffee certifications, specifically the state of global coffee and sustainable certifications. These certifications include Organic, Fair Trade, Rainforest Alliance, Utz, and others.
What is 'seed to cup'? Mark from the Hub will be focused on their direct relationships with farmers and how we go about sourcing and why it is important to our company and how it benefits the farmer. Just like people know about farm to plate, we want to talk about seed to cup.
How can I optimize the flavor of my coffee? Matt from Magpie Roasters will focus on the coffee flavor wheel. The wheel was developed to describe the types of flavors in coffee, like a pie chart. It explains what we can find in coffee, also a bit about how the growing process affects flavor.
What are some international coffee rituals? Tim from Woodfire Roasters brings his experience of different coffee rituals from around the world. He'll also share his own personal coffee ritual and how to develop a personal ritual centered around coffee for personal enjoyment and sharing in a social environment.
Here's what the Reno Gazette-Journal is saying about the event:
"Reno has not isolated itself from caffeine frenzy. Coffee houses, roasters and bean retailers are open in nearly every neighborhood. Coffee lovers can learn more about their beverage of choice from 11 a.m. to noon, Feb. 22 when the Great Basin Community Food Coop presents the Great Basin Grindhouse Workshops and Tastings."
