The Happy Coffee Podcast

This podcast is part of⁠ the Happy Coffee Network⁠ [thehappycoffeenetwork.com]: an online platform to build meaningful connections with coffee people from all over the world. This episode is part 2 of a two part conversation with our guest ⁠Mikolaj Pociecha⁠ [https://www.instagram.com/yellow_coat_boi/] and is hosted by ⁠Wendelien van Bunnik.⁠ [https://www.instagram.com/wendeliendrinkscoffee/] During this conversation we get to know Mikolaj and how he became such a big fan of Canephora, the coffee variety that we often mistakenly refer to as Robusta. We learn what the difference is between the two, but also how it came to have such a bad reputation in the coffee industry. Mik also explains the challenges that Canephora faces besides the bad image in terms of pricing and producing, and he answers the question if Canephora is the answer to the coffee industry's climate crisis. He also sheds his light on the roasting technique that's required to make a Canephora shine. Curious about Canephora after listening to this episde? Keep an eye on Mik's plans for a roastery: ⁠Chunky Cherry Coffee⁠ [https://www.instagram.com/chunkycherrycoffee/] Did you enjoy this episode?
