Go into a coffee roaster's shop and, if they're roasting, smell what roasting coffee actually smells like: burning popcorn. It does NOT smell good and most definitely doesn't smell like coffee. Roasting coffee is a smoky, ashy, chary, oily experience if you don't have proper ventilation.

COFFEE...it was great. The limitation of coffee in the early U.S. was due to having to roast the coffee beans. Very inconsistent, and one bean burnt would ruin the whole batch. This kept coffee from being more popular. In the mid 1800's 02 brothers John & Charles Arbuckle created a method of consistently roasting green coffee beans enabling them to sell pre-roasted beans by the pound. All a person had to do was grind them fresh and cook to taste. Arbuckle coffee was a western favorite. The company even began putting a stick of candy in each bag so the cook could give the candy to the person who cranked the grinder for him to encourage assistance. Arbuckle coffee is still in business in Tucson Arizona. Good boiled coffee is till the best coffee.....Hate to sound like a commercial but I have been drinking this for decades now, and it is a fantastic coffee for those who really like coffee.

Well, paintings of men in the 1700's did show them to be clean shaven, but that doesn't prove they shaved every day. Naturally, you would shave on the day you have your portrait painted, as that was a special occasion. I have a couple old straightrazors I've shaved with, and it just seems like a huge chore. I think the average man usually shaved maybe two or three times a week. If you lived on the frontier, though, you just grew a beard.

Until fairly recently coffee was boiled and later percolated, drip coffee is very recent. People also would drink a small but strong cup of coffee rather than the larger, watery coffee we drink now. Many Arabic, African, and some Asia countries still drink small but strong cups of coffee and many Arabic countries still drink the "Turkish" style brewing method that would have been used in Western countries during the 18th century.
@shamanbeartwo3819
@shamanbeartwo3819 4 года назад
I learned how to roast from Ethiopians and my local Asian market now sells 4-lb bags of Ethiopian beans for $13.50 which is a lot cheaper than anyone else's coffee. And they pretty much roast every time they want a cup. I'm rather stunned that he didn't wash the beans first like they taught me. Plus, they use a flat skillet so the beans all touch the pan all the time.

@@praeceptor that makes alot of sense, especially since in warmer areas like the arab world they were closer to coffee producing areas and so coffee would also be cheaper so they could afford more coffee.

One interesting method of coffee brewing that I have heard of is something called "egg coffee" Basically you beat an egg and mix in the coffee grounds before dumping it into boiling water. The egg proteins coagulate around the coffee and make it much easier to strain out. Now if I'm remembering my history correctly: Both tea and coffee came into vogue at about the same time in British society. The reason why tea became so popular was because the British Empire controlled the regions where it was produced and could therefore get a better price for it.

As someone who roast and grinds my own coffee, there is nothing quite like a freshly roasted/ground batch. Personally I would argue that once roasted the whole beans are good for a maximum of two weeks for optimal taste, but I think we all agree that one should only grind the coffee bean seconds before brewing. It is nice to learn of the methods early consumers of coffee employed to prepare it and I truly appreciate the historical perspective this video provides. Thank you for sharing this!

I dont drink coffee either, but I like knowing the process. Its real humbling and you learn to really enjoy what you enjoy more because of the time in process. You certainly dont take throwing something out lightly. You connect with how precious life and in turn resources actually are. We are so discounted from that now.

South American coffee was imported in 132 lb. bags. African coffee was 156 lbs. African was, by far the dirtiest coffee. My Dad worked for a stevedoring co. and coffee ships would typically be in port for a week. Most of our coffee came from Brazil, Santos being the best. During that time they would discharge several bags of coffee destined for other ports, NY, Mia., NOLA etc. and take the coffee to a local roaster where it was roasted and ground into the finest coffee I have ever had. All the other ports did the same thing too.

Watching this video sure took me back to my childhood. That's the way we made coffee when I was growing up. We bought green beans from the store and roast them either over the stove or over the fireplace. My grandfather even had a very old long handled popper cooker that look like a popcorn popper but that's what he did his coffee in over the fireplace. Best coffee I ever drink.

As a coffee snob, i was surprised at the accuracy of information by dave. If you havent tasted coffee from an independent roaster then all you know is what burned coffee tastes like. Pretty much all big companies, especially starbucks over cook their beans so the "flavor" is consistent. Also it is worth noting that the big companies make a point to buy old beans as it is then at a discount and thus more economical. Great video.
@nyssa1049

@HenryKissingersGhost
@HenryKissingersGhost 8 лет назад
well I would have to disagree with your last statement. I think just much as there is a movement of micro breweries, there has been a recent movement in small roasters. atleast here in the west coast california. But I can understand why a small independent coffee shop who is still trying to make a profit would go for a cafe motto against a small roaster because it is cheaper, people think the crap is good and a lot of bigger roasters will actually give you machines to use to sweeten up the deal.
@nyssa1049
@nyssa1049 8 лет назад
Yeah, I live in the northwest and there are plenty of independent roasters here. I was referring more to individuals not brewing their own coffee at home, and instead relying on places like Starbucks. I know many people who don't know how to make basic coffee and don't care to learn. That's what I meant by becoming a lost art. Many people don't even know what good coffee should taste like since they grew up with the tepid, watered down, sweetened, flavored stuff from Starbucks. That's what drives me crazy.

@@MyDokuChannel Europe had multiple "first introductions" to coffee, the Byzantines had coffee houses that Europeans were exposed to but after the fall of Constantinople they sort of "forgot" about coffee. It was brought to Malta by the Knights of St John who supposedly got a taste for it, but the trail goes cold there. The first time that coffee was brought to Europe and people KEPT drinking it was when the Turks brought it with them to Vienna and were chased off, abandoning their coffee stores to the European defenders. After that it spread across Europe, likely due to the Austrian Empires/Habsubrgs wide reach across Europe and because multiple nations were present during the battle.
