Les Os posted:stupid question: sure growing food can be done in someone's backyard and could make more money without buying from costco first, but it's still work, time, and capital, and maybe you still couldn't produce the quantities required. it's just managing excess supply arbitrage where where someone else has the farms and resources to overproduce and you take the overproduction and resell it coffee roasting is not that cheap, proper roasting machines can be costly, having to sign import deals to get beans on a regular basis which could mean pre-signing a large contract that maybe doesn't sell well and having to stockpile it somewhere, managing the production and buying packaging machines and package materials, etc. there's often going to be excess capacity that people can basically sell to you that might be more profitable or smart business venture than investing your own capital and time into something that is better suited elsewhere (or not at all). I think you're underestimating how much work goes into it if you're serious about selling packaged in-house coffee beans e: Think about it this way, you could sign a contract with a producer to produce beans, package them, label them to your spec and deliver them to your coffee shop for say $6/pack en mass basically no skin off your back. You turn around and resell them for $10/pack at your shop. You're basically making $4/pack profit off no labor or capital investment of your own. It's about as Free Real Estate! as you can get. Or you could invest $100k into coffee roasters, ventillation systems, city permitting for smell/operating hours/whatever, buying packaging machine, label makers, and then spend 80-hours/wk of FTE labor to produce them for maybe around $5/pack. Is it worth the extra +$1/pack you earn in profit? Is it worth the payroll to hire people, having to be a manager to manage people and assign them schedules/jobs/etc just to produce them? Is that something you're going to loathe doing and be miserable managing people so you have to hire someone else to manage them while you do your bespoke brewing instead? Is it worth your time to run that if you aren't hiring a peon to do it? Do you have $100k to invest upfront for something that might not sell well? maybe if you know its going to be successful and sell out massive massive volumes, maybe not. final thing i'll add: in my experience a number of actual bespoke in-house roaster guys are doing it more as a hobby that just so happens to pay the bills. they do it because they loving love roasting coffee themselves: love of the game, and not so much the money. it's actually a pretty bad value proposition for the labor they put in but that's moot. like there's that one computer touching cspam goon who quit computers and moved to farm in rural Vermont to farm maple syrup all day. i don't think it pays well but they enjoy doing it and it beats the 9-5 office grind. i've met a number of coffee roasters who are basically that goon. if you are in it for the money and business, then no it's not worth it to do it yourself Xaris has issued a correction as of 08:52 on Nov 28, 2023 |

I used to drink 5 or 6 cups a day of beautiful delicious coffee. Now I'm an old man with tachycardia and high blood pressure and I have to stop.

Did you know that after decades of drinking a pot or two a day, that quitting caffeine cold turkey can cause hospitalization or death?

COVID made me realize that the smell of fresh ground coffee in the morning is probably the thing I'd miss the most if I permanently lost my sense of smell. I was using a jar of ground beans to test my smell constantly as I recovered :roll: Fell Mood posted:Did you know that after decades of drinking a pot or two a day, that quitting caffeine cold turkey can cause hospitalization or death? this used to be true but the Folger's corporation stopped putting real barbiturates into their products back in 1933, now they just extract out the active chemicals and leave the rest of the extract in for "flavor"

the best liqueur to add to a latte or cappuccino is Tuaca. this is just an objective fact. you don’t need Bailey’s (there’s already dairy) you don’t need kahlua (there’s already coffee). brandy is the base liquor which complements coffee and Tuaca is brand-based. citrus and vanilla are both excellent flavors if you want to sweeten and boozen your coffee
