Between 2008 and 2010, coffee prices skyrocketed by 150%. In the last two years, prices have plummeted back down to their 2008 lows. This seems like an appropriate occasion for homeroasters to think about a few timely questions. For example: 1- Have suppliers lowered prices on my bean purchases lately? 2– Should I stock-up on beans before market prices cycle upwards again? 3– Is now a good time to sell (or buy) shares in Starbucks? 4– Should I consider investing in coffee futures? 5– How are small coffee farmers in developing countries being impacted? 6– … (feel free to add some of your questions here) … Here is a link to a stimulating article (and source of attached images), that may assist HRO members ponder similar questions over a cup of their favorite brew as they begin the New Year. http://www.resour...wn-coffee/

Another coffee ETF is CAFE. See this guide: http://etfdb.com/...sting-101/ 1 pound electric sample roaster, 3 pound direct-flame roaster, both handmade; modified Mazzer Mini grinder, LaSpaziale Vivaldi II automatic espresso machine. When the electricity goes out I make vacpot coffee from beans ground on my Zassenhaus hand grinder, and heat the water with a teakettle on the gas range.

http://www.agrimo...10/coffee/ http://www.agrimo...-5274.html Quote However, arabica coffee, trading at 143 cents a pound on a front-contract basis on Wednesday, will recover to average 170 cents a pound in the first quarter of 2013, and still see some upside later in the year, Rabobank said. That's a 19% return over 3 months. 1 pound electric sample roaster, 3 pound direct-flame roaster, both handmade; modified Mazzer Mini grinder, LaSpaziale Vivaldi II automatic espresso machine.
