I still remember that day in downtown Buffalo. I was probably 10 or 11 years old on a shopping trip with my parents when we walked by a diner window with full view of their short order cooks.

And yet, no, we are not back to normal, considering how much we’ve had to change in order to survive.

The proper storage of green coffee is essential for maintaining freshness and quality.

When we talk about age in this context, we mean the natural, irreversible process which causes coffee quality to diminish.

Understandably, preserving freshness is one of the most important, as green beans are particularly sensitive to external factors – including temperature and moisture. Maintaining freshness is an essential part of green coffee storage, but minimising environmental damage at this stage of the supply chain is also crucial – especially as the demand for more sustainable coffee grows.

In recent years, direct trade has become increasingly prominent in specialty coffee. The idea is simple: by reducing the number of intermediaries in the supply chain, the farmer receives a higher percentage of the final sale price. However, there is no official definition of direct trade, which leaves the model somewhat open to interpretation. There is also no specific “direct trade” certification for coffee – and as such, the definition of it can be used rather loosely in the coffee industry.
