COFFEE BREAK PART 4

Have you get a cup of coffee this morning?
I made a cup of coffee milk this morning...
How about you?

Yesterday we got coffee beans.
So... What will we do with the coffee beans?
Some farmers (I think most of them) will sell it as soon as possible.
Just a few of  farmers keep their coffee on the stockroom or barn.
We use to save a little bit of our product to make our own coffee powder (home made coffee drink).

Roasted coffee beans

In modern method, selected coffee beans will roasted on the rotated oven.
Then we put it into the coffee grinder machine and then packed.
In traditional method, selected coffee bean will roasted on crockery frying pan until the color turns dark brown  or black.
Some of coffee farmer still use traditionally process by using  big mortar and pestle that in Java are called lumpang (mortar) and alu (pestle).

My little stone mortar and pestle

Coffee grinder is only used in  the urban area, in many coffee shops.
But peoples usually using instant coffee from markets and coffee shops.

Traditionally grinding...

The result of traditionally process is coffee drink that have grout (sediment) in the glass if it's diluted into boiling water.
That is Indonesian traditional  coffee drink.

In Central Java, traditional coffee maker usually use roasted corn or rice as added blend to reduce caffeine effect from coffee powder.
It's blend more safe for our stomach.
