今は廃止となった列車の駅を使った彼らのロースター。中に入ってみると
We visited at Kickapoo Coffee roaster. This building used to be a old train station.

This roaster is more than 70 years old!! For roasting, the coffee beans need to be checked temperature and time constantly. Every Coffee beans has different character so they choose how much they want to roast very carefully. And of course every time check the taste too. After roasting, it will be sold at the Viroqua Co-op where is just 5 minutes away or sealed in a can or a bag and go to other shops. We can also have their coffee at our local cafe Driftless Cafe too.

コーヒー豆は1つの実に2つほど入っていて、その実から豆を取り出す方法からも味が変わってくるんだそうです。①実を乾燥させて自然に豆を取り出す方法と、②収穫後洗いにかけて豆を取り出す方法。①の方法では②よりもコーヒーの実が長期間豆をくるんでいて甘味が増すんだそうです!その他コーヒーの謎をガイドをしてくれたTJから聞くことができました!確かに納得!
Coffee beans from a lot of different country. Each area has different circumstances such as air, elevation, water and so on. And also there are two different ways of getting coffee beans out of the coffee cherry. Number1, get beans naturally. Leave coffee cherries for a couple of months when cherries are gone naturally pick the beans. Number 2, get beans by washing. the Number 1 has sweeter taste as they have cherry around it for a while. TJ explained a lot of interesting stuff about coffee for us!

Have you ever seen coffee beans before they are roasted? How is the taste??!!
