With the rise in value of the beloved coffee industry to over 100 billion dollars world wide, it’s vital to return to this comforting yet essential drink’s origin. Specialty coffee has brought the actual beans into a new light and out of the dim and dusty light of the second wave coffee standard it was at before. Consumers and producers alike are actually taking the time to learn about the coffee bean and it’s roots more and more.
The small brown bean that you find in the bags on the shelf or nested in the hopper of an espresso grinder did not always look the way they do in their final stage that you are used to seeing. The original form is actually in a fruit state- called a cherry. This cherry has been t
hrough hours of work and many caring hands before it reaches the cup you have in the morning. This cherry has not always been used in the way that it is today. When ripe, it is a bright red and looks similar to a cranberry. Early on, this fruit was covered in animal fat and used as a protein rich snack, something that would probably be a sensation in the keto diet world. It was also used to make a wine-like drink by fermenting the fruit pulp. It is said that the very first coffee plants were grown and cultivated in Ethiopia and were soon brought over to Yemen. There are dozens of different stories about how the uses of coffee were discovered, one of them being the legend of the goat farmer named Kaldi. His goats kept eating the fruits and refused to go to sleep at night. He decided to dig a little deeper into these fruits in order to harness their power for humans. One tale says that he shared these fruits with a monk who thought of them as evil and threw them into a fire, thus creating the first roasted beans. Unfortunately, these stories don't have any physical evidence but who are we to say these goats aren’t the founders of this cherished drink.
From the cherries on the trees, to the freshly ground coffee in your filter, there are quite a few processes that the bean goes through. The cherries are processed in three different ways. The less expensive way is the dry or natural method. The cherries are dried out in the sun for about seven to ten days and turned periodically. Once their moisture level has dropped to 11% or less, their outer shells will turn brown and the bean inside will rattle around. During the wet or washed method, the pulp of the cherries is removed soon after harvesting, leaving just the beans. The beans are then put into a fermentation solution for 24-48 hours. The beans are then dried by machines or the sun. Once they are dried, their outer layers are removed in a process called hulling. The third process for preparing the cherries is called the honey process or pulped natural process. The cherry pulp is removed but the bean itself is not washed which leaves some of the pulp still on it. The remaining pulp left on the bean mimics the sticky, golden consistency of honey which is where it gets its name. This process allows for the use of less water than it would in the washed method and takes less time than the natural method. Once the dry and naked beans are done being processed and hulled, they will then be sent to a roaster. Each roaster has a different method, there are a multitude of different roasters and styles. Once the beans have their first crack, similar to the first popcorn kernel opening, all of the flavors, nuanciases, and notes are released.
Whether you drink coffee because it's the post- Boston Tea Party patriotic thing to do or because you just need a little pick me up, you can always count on this wondrous and historically rich drink to be there for you. The North Central College Coffee Lab has gone to the very source in order to serve you the most ethical and delicious coffee they could provide. The importance in knowing where your coffee comes from can make the world of a difference in a coffee farmer’s life.

Running the small business was hard enough in itself without having to suffer such stress as loss of access to a Bitcoin wallet. I had put $532,000 into Bitcoin for my business in case of emergencies, but one day, the wallet was nowhere to be seen. I had trusted it to my friend while he managed my financials, little knowing he would prove less than trustworthy. I couldn’t envision the gut-wrenching feeling coupled with a great feeling of folly for having placed so much trust in someone else’s hands. I could not believe my eyes to see that all of my digital fortune was gone. Literally, every second of my busy day froze in disbelief as I tried to conceive the loss. I remembered the hours I had put into building my business, securing my investments, and planning for the future. Now, I was staring at an empty wallet that once held my safety net. This hit me hard-not only had I lost $532,000, but the betrayal hurt further because it came from someone I considered reliable. The emotional toll was huge, and this financial hit could cripple my business. In the midst of my despair, I knew I had to act fast. I went online, searching everywhere for a solution through which I could get back in control of my finances. That is where I came across Digital resolution services. I knew them for recovery related to lost crypto, but also somehow skeptical. At that point, it looked like I had nothing left to lose. I reached out, and with our very first conversation, I gained the impression that they did understand my situation. Their team was nothing short of extraordinary. They approached my case with professionalism and empathy, meticulously explaining the recovery process in clear, simple terms that alleviated some of my anxiety. They set realistic expectations while promising to do everything possible to retrieve my funds. Over the next several weeks, they worked tirelessly, employing advanced blockchain forensic techniques and sophisticated tracking tools that I’d never even heard of before. It kept me informed with constant updates and gave me hope in this desperate time. Finally, it came-the day Digital resolution services recovered my lost Bitcoin. Relief overwhelmed me, and it wasn’t all about the money but control and self-trust in my financial future. This experience taught me the most valuable lesson: never lose control over your own financial security and never put blind trust in anyone. With Digital resolution services, I recovered not only my $532,000 but also learned how to protect my assets better in the future.
