How do you judge #green_coffee? Are you getting the quality you paid for? In this video, we take a close look at three types: fully-washed Kenyans, Salvadoran honeys, and Ethiopian naturals. You'll learn to recognize the signs of quality, and spot the defects that ought to be rare in specialty coffee. Whichever #coffeemaker you roast for, be it #espresso or pour over, Turkish or cold brew, you should know what you're buying.
