#arabica — Public Fediverse posts

Hey coffee nerds, did you ever try to brew pure #robusta as pour over and drink it black?

I picked up a high quality one from Uganda at my local roaster. It has interesting notes but I am not sure if I can get used to the astringency in the after taste. With global warming it would great to have an viable alliterative to #arabica..

What about you?

Der #Klimawandel bedroht die #Kaffeeproduktion in #Brasilien.

#Dürre, #Hitze und #Starkregen führen zu #Ernteausfälle​n. Forschende entwickeln robuste #Arabica-Varianten im Labor, während einige Bauern auf #Agroforstwirtschaft setzen.

Die Zukunft des Kaffees liegt in Klimaanpassung und Vielfalt. Als günstiges Massenprodukt hat Kaffee ausgedient.

Wer es noch nicht mitbekommen hat:

☕ Kaffee wird immer teurer – und das hat viele Gründe. #Klimawandel, #Extremwetter und Spekulationen an der #Börse treiben die Preise in die Höhe.

Besonders betroffen sind Anbauländer wie #Brasilien und #Vietnam, die unter Dürre und Frost leiden.

Die gängigen Kaffeesorten #Arabica und #Robusta sind anfällig für Wetterkapriolen.🌱

Ce matin je teste un blend que l'on m'a offert : 80% #arabica, 20% #robusta noble. Il sent bon avec des notes de chocolat et a une jolie couleur marron. Je pars sur une mouture moyenne à la #chemex et on vise un un temps d'extraction de 2 minutes 30. #café

The price of #robusta, another coffee variety, is up 80% year-to-date due to #climate challenges in top-producer #Vietnam.
