Coffee...that magical nectar for early mornings!

Coffee....what a beautiful thing.

While I sit here typing this, I have a fresh cup of java in my hand. What is it that makes drink so good but can also be so bad? We have all had that one cup of coffee that we absolutely loved and just when you thought it couldn't get better, you find another cup of this magical brew which is better....or worse.

Coffee has been around for thousands of years, and I am not here to tell you where it came from, the origins, the chemical formulation etc. etc. that information you can find on the Discovery Channel. What I would like to delve into is what is happening with the coffee culture in South Africa. How is it changing and why do we still prefer our local brands such as Truth or Tribe over the international companies as Star Buck ( which will be hitting our shores soon enough).

Coffee can be roasted and brewed in so many ways. The posts to follow will look at different ways which are being explored for roasting, the different way to brew a good cup of coffee and some recipes to follow too.

I want to bring the coffee community together and offer you the reader not just an entertaining, informative read but also in time some fantastic coffee for you to roast and brew at home. Stay tuned for the product reviews and offering coming soon!

So Stay tuned for more coffee brewing, roasting goodness!
