Also, I got to swim in patio-drying commodity! :D

The commercial/commodity coffee looks quite horrible though. It has big chunks of mold (white and green!), lots of impurities (some of which will be removed), and is generally rather eewww-y. It´s made up from the green rejects from the speciality coffee to a big part - which is still high quality coffee.

This, dear #coffee lovers, is what´s in instant and/or cheap store coffee bags.

The processing ("producer") facility of Great Cherry. They buy the fresh cherries from small farmers (like the ones in the frontyard-drying-pic, but fresh) or bigger farmers like the military owned land, and then apply their considerable processing knowledge, thereby increasing profit for the farmers by ~30-50%, and making some amazing coffee.

Here we see the wet mill part, with transporters, sorter, floating (to remove spoilt) and a honey process crusher.

They are also experimenting with certified organic farming, and this road was on the border between conventional left and organic right. You can even see how much greener, with grass and herbs, the right side is. The grass also reduces the need for irrigation, which I learnt Robusta also often has - it needs much less water than Arabica, but it has a shallower root system. Even some wild peanuts grow, and there´s more and higher shadow-and-windbreak-trees!

This farm, the land was apparently owned and managed by the states military, which meant we had military people escorting us and explaining their crop management and methods. They were nice enough, but it felt a bit weird :D.

While the maincrop is already over, there are still a few ripe cherries here and there - they´re super sweet, and I got lucky and found a peaberry ^_^

My 20 top rated movies and TV shows of 2024

Time for a 2024 wrap up. If you've been here before, you know this website is dedicated to finding work by women directors and women leading actors to feature. The "best of" lists you see elsewhere don't match this criteria, so my lists are always different. Here are the top 20 movies and TV shows I watched and rated in 2024. […]

The track "Voices from Bethlehem" by Little Drummer Boy was released at #Christmas 2018, but for me it is still one of the most touching #songs I know. It makes one thing tangible: no matter what #nationality, #origin, #language or #religion - we can all communicate if we want to. And we all have more in common than divides us. For me, that's the most beautiful message that we should remember, and not just at #Christmas, right? Especially in these times!

"The #singer Nathalie Murad and her singing colleagues Fouad Moubassaleh, Milad Fatouleh, Amjad Khair and Fadi Ghattas sing the beautiful Christmas carol "Little Drummer Boy" in many languages, including #Arabic, #Persian and #Italian."
