NATIONAL COFFEE DAY - September 29
NATIONAL COFFEE DAY
Whether getting one to go or lingering over a second cup, on September 29 be sure to observe National Coffee Day!
Ah, the perfect cup of java. According to an expert cupper (a professional coffee taster), there are four components of a perfect cup: aroma, body, acidity, and flavor.
From the moment the average coffee lover opens a fresh bag of coffee beans, the aroma beckons, percolating the senses. Even those who don't drink coffee tend to enjoy the fragrance a roasted bean casts.
When determining the body of a coffee, the bean, the roast, and the brew are all factors. The bean affects the texture of the coffee, whether its silky, creamy, thick or thin on the tongue and throat. However, the darker the roast and how it is brewed will alter the feel of a coffee's body, too. Grandpa's motor oil blend versus the coffee shop around the corner's silky smooth, well-practiced grind have entirely different bodies.
The region a coffee is grown determines its acidity. The higher the elevation the coffee grows, the higher the quality and the acidity. These coffees are considered brighter, dryer, even sparkling by cuppers.
When it comes down to it, coffee lovers cherish the flavor as well as the caffeinated boost this roasted bean gives morning or night, black or with cream and sugar. Hot or cold it provides enjoyment even when decaffeinated!
There are many legendary accounts of how coffee first came to be, but the earliest credible evidence of either coffee drinking or the knowledge of the coffee tree appears in the middle of the 15th century in the Sufi monasteries around Mokha in Yemen. It was here coffee seeds were first roasted and brewed, much like they are prepared today. Yemeni traders brought coffee back to their homeland from Ethiopia and began to cultivate the seed.
In 1670, coffee seeds were smuggled out of the Middle East by Baba Budan, as he strapped seven coffee seeds onto his chest. The first plants grown from these smuggled seeds were planted in Mysore. It was then that coffee spread to Italy, to the rest of Europe, to Indonesia and the Americas.
Brazil produces more coffee in the world than any other country followed by Colombia. More than 50 countries around the world grow coffee, providing a delicious variety for the indulgence of steamy cups of the black drink for connoisseurs to consume.

Venezuela produces less than one percent of the world's coffee, and most of it is drank by the Venezuelans themselves. However, this interesting bean is once again entering the North American market, and now is your chance to sample it! We introduce the Hollywood Bakery & Pizzeria espresso, leading other roasters to create a discriminating coffee culture that became the market standard. They have always been on the top of the Venezuelan food service market, delivering coffee beans to customers with espresso machines.

Sweet and Iced
During the cold-brew process, time replaces heat. Deceptively simple, cold water brewing extracts the delicious flavor compounds (and some of the caffeine) from coffee beans. The cold brew process creates a perfectly balanced and distinctively smooth cup of coffee - served iced cold. You're invited to taste the Sweet and Ice difference: Flavored cold brew coffee, plus you get to keep your mug with a lid and a reusable straw.

Pay to Park
Yes, our parking lot is a pay to park lot now. This last weekend we had a few problems with our system for parking, we believe we have addressed most of the issues, and the parking should be smoother this weekend. The Yellow Green Farmers Market is paving the large lot on the West side of the Tracks from the Tri-Rail station (known as 3080 Sheridan) this will allow much more parking for customers. This will allow much greater access from Sheridan Street to the market. This new lot when fully paved will add over 3 times the current parking. The number one complaint from the customers and vendors the past couple of years is that we run out of parking. The Lot we opened for parking just to the north of us a few years ago reached capacity last year during peak season and has stayed at capacity through the summer. As our vendors our small entrepreneurial businesses we decided it was best to charge for parking rather than significantly raise the rates to our vendors to pay for the new parking lot.
