Setelah sekian puluh Tahun menunggu pasaran Kopi yang pasti akhirnya Pak Hengky Bidana menarik nafas legah karena pasar kopi bukan dicarinya tetapi pasar mencari pak Hengky B sampai di kediamanya.

Bagaimana suka-duka dalam menekuni usaha Kopi jenis Arabica meskipun tidak ada pasar yang pasti untuk menjual hasil panan setiap musimnya. Uraian ini hasil perbbincangan kami dengan beliau.

BBC : ” Pak Hengky minta maat bisa tanya sekitar pengembangan Kopi jika bapak bersedia kami anak-anak pegunungan yang fokus usaha Kopi penasaran ingin tahu apa yang mendorong bapak tetap menekuni memelihara Kopi meskipun tidak ada pasar yang pasti?”

HB. : ” Anak, sebelumnya bapa mau katakan kedatangan anak sebagai juru selamat untuk saya dan teman-teman petani Kopi yang lain, mengapa? Karena Kopi yang anak lihat ini sudah ber-umur 39 Tahun. Bapa bawa biji Kopi/bibit dari Wamena sebanyak 45 bijik kopi, yang lainya mati yang hidup 15. Dari 15…

Craftsmen Specialty Coffee

Originally posted on The Ordinary Patrons:

Craftsmen Specialty Coffee is a cafe in Siglap V that sells coffee and beer as well as ice cream, cakes, waffles and other small bites. They also retail packs of coffee beans, brewing equipment and accessories like syphon and filters.

It is another cafe with the “industrial look” – exposed ceilings, bare concrete floor, “semi-finished” walls and the now ubiquitous “Edison” filament light bulbs.

The distinguishing features in Craftsmen Specialty Coffee are the coffee drip tower prominently placed on the main long table and the display of a variety of craftsbeer and cider.

But – if you are into the coffee, it is enough to say “the wonderful smell of fresh coffee”, and we understand each other. And let me throw in a few pictures for the good measure…

When I walked into the shop of Shearwater Organic Coffee Roasters in Trumbull, CT, I felt like a kid in the toy store. It was all about coffee – the smell, the coffee makers, huge bags of coffee…
