What you didn't know about coffee: Asher Yaron at TEDxUbud

After several trips to Bali, Asher Yaron finally decided to move there and follow his desire to create a local, organic, sustainable business.
With Balinese coffee farmer friend I Nyoman Wirata, Asher created F.R.E.A.K., that is, "Fresh Roasted Enak (delicious in Indonesian) Arabica from Kintamani," which is involved in all aspects of the coffee business "from the cherry to the cup." Asher also has plans to use pure spring water from Kintamani to further improve the flavor of their coffee and return a percentage of the profits to community projects in the Kintamani region. Asher's upcoming venture: Coffee University.
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.

Then stored in a sacks or containers for use as a coffee drink .If you want to drink coffee fresh,roast ,pound as a coffee powder, then boil water on demand , add coffee powdere on to the boil in a special tool called "JEBENA " which is traditionally clay made equipment that every household culturally have and using for coffee only. In this way coffee keeps its natural taste and good for using

    You learned nothing because most things he says aren't true. For example, coffee isn't best 11 hours after roasting, it's somewhere between 1 and 8 weeks after roasting. But if I wanted to push a coffeebean roasting machine I'd say the same things he does. If you truly want to learn about coffee than watch some James Hoffmann video's.

    This guy hit the nail on the head. Coffee has to be freshly roasted and ground, and consumed without storing the powder. We at home ( south India) have been roasting our coffee in an ordinary cast iron frying pan, and grinding it after about two hours. We do roast and grind what we need for the day, and no more. This is what we have been doing for years, many years- learned from our parents forty years ago. We do not need any fancy roasting machines. We grind it rather coarse, since we use filter to make decoction. What coffee we use is a matter of taste, cultivated over the years. We use a blend of Peaberry/Plantation A ( 10/90%). We also have a mix of Arabica/Robusta ( 80/20%) Sadly, quality of coffee has declined in recent years. Also, organic seeds are not easy to get.

    @@aliabbas48 I never thought of taking any video, as we just did it daily! There was one Panchami Iyer in Kumbakonam town ( Tanjore Dist, Tamil Nadu) who invented a special process of making coffee. He selected the seeds, and mixed them ( the proportion was his secret); he roasted them slowly in an earthen pot, in small lots, over a slowly burning wood stove personally, and ground them in a hand-grinding machine and made the decoction using a brass filter. South Indians like their coffee with milk and sugar. So, he had his own cows, which were milked twice a day. This milk was heated ( not boiled) in small lots to make the required amount of coffee, and it was not reheated. Thus he served a unique brand of coffee in his restaurant, to the delight of the whole town and it came to be known as "Kumbakonam Degree Coffee". This was in the good old 50s &60s. I am a coffee addict, and like a good article on coffee, as much as the coffee itself. I liked your presentation. Thank you.

    wow. I work in coffee, am actually a coffee producer, cupper, exporter, importer, roaster ocasionally... I have two things to say about this: 1) coffee is alive before you roast it, and DIES WHEN YOU ROAST IT. its basic biology, living beings have a temperature range at which they can survive. His concept is backwards. It is because THE COFFEE JUST DIED that the shelf life is not more than a week (for totally fresh and best results... this I agree with). 2) Not just anyone can roast coffee. the machine he built means nothing without GOOD COFFEE. there are ways of grading coffe and certain altitudes and climates certainly yield better or worse coffees. You cannot ever claim that all coffee is the same, and actually you cannot keep the coffee for years as long as you don't roast it like he says. Within grading INTERNATIONAL STANDARDS you can taste when coffee is old, and that happens at around 6-12 months. This is greatly affected by packaging method, and contrary to his explanations... it does work. both on the pre roast coffee, and the roasted coffee. he is assuming that the coffee is as good if you leave it outside of a container as well as it would be if it was inside the container. totally false. the fridge thing is true, better out than in... I guess its more than 2 things... also TED come on. this is a cheap infomercial with shady logic and data... who approves this?

    el Padresuerte Completely agree with your second point sir. There are a hundred factors that make the difference between different green bean coffees. Geography zone ( LAtin american? African? Asian PAcific?) different altitudes ( is it an arabica grown at 6000 feet elevation or a robusta at 1000?) , rich or poor soil, access to light, and sun exposure, cool nights, use or not of pesticides, etc etc . A hundred ways you can make or break a coffee bean, way before its arrival at the plant. You can roast most of the Vietnamese coffee beans to perfection, and it would still make for a very poor cup of coffee, given how about 90% of their coffee production is robusta beans.

You may want to consider that merely my opinion, but it is no more so than your insinuation that his description of a 75 cent roaster would make the talk not an infomercial.

    el Padresuerte you obviously do not understand what I am talking about. When coffee is roasted over 1,000 chemical compounds are created and many of these are in the form of gases, this is what I am referring to as "Alive", active chemical compounds that are activated and create during roasting. Without roasting, nothing, dormant. I am not claiming that all coffee is the same. I only use 100% Arabica coffee, Robusta is inferior and only used because it's cheap and delivers 2x the caffeine which is actually an overdose for most people's nervous system and leads to the jitters and nervousness. Different coffee plantations process their coffee in different ways and this makes a big difference in the quality of the coffee. My point is that along the entire chain of creating coffee "From the Cherry to the Cup", the most significant and overlooked aspect is the time period between when the coffee is roasted and when the coffee is consumed. This is my main focus and what this talk was all about.

    Excellent video. I have one small suggestion. Espresso isn't a measure of "roast", it's a dark roast that is a "grind", a very fine grind. ALL coffee goes stale very quickly after grinding, but espresso moreso because it is so finely ground. The ultra fine grind gives much greater surface area, which goes stale much faster.

On the rare occasion that run out of my own roast, I'll buy some roasted beans, and I'm reminded how much better I like my fresh roast. I tend to roast a pound about every 2 weeks, and yeah.... that's about the end of the life cycle.... 2 weeks.

    Growing up in Jamaica years ago, we didn't know about stale coffee or stale cocoa. we usually just make them from fresh beans at or near the time when we wanted them. Chocolates could be stored for a while but it never seemed necessary to have prepared coffee for more than a week. I believe that this video is in perfect sync with the coffee culture I know. Strangely too, all those people that I knew who used to live so long in Jamaica were usually coffee lovers. I remember so many old folks who were at age 100 to 114 years. One man in particular was 119. Another did not know his own age when he came to our village. People surmised that he was about 70. At some point someone managed to obtain his birth certificate and he learned that he was ninety nine. Two years later he fathered a son. He die about nine years later. There were a few who got so old that we would have to put them out to sit in the sun sometimes. I believe these ones were not able to naturally keep themselves warm. We used to say we were 'sunning' them. These people had great stories to tell. They were never ill for long before dying. Most died when they were still able to 'help themselves' doing ordinary stuff. They would call the folks around to say they were 'tired'. They would go soon after wards. Things has changed. I wonder if bad coffee is to blame...

    I just recently had a talk with a new brand that is aiming to produce the coffee at the farming sites themselves, delivering straight to the shelf and overseeing that all the production is ethical and in their knowledge, done by the locals. They informed me that the reason their coffee bags don't have a roasting date is because the grocery store chain requested it to be left out (because you know, it looks much better if there's still 2 months until the expiration date rather than it being 10 months after the roasting, since they buy a shelf full and order more only when the shelf is empty). In the age where consumers are more and more into fresh and "luxurious" coffee, i.e. small roasteries and producers who track the whole chain and are transparent, produce better experience and fresher product. Supposedly, because the store is still trying to have a shortcut. I'm curious about how subjective this is, because some of the coffee people who are deep into brewing the best coffee, roasting it, producing it and just trying everything, are of the opinion that it's not until multiple days after roasting that the coffee should be brewed and starts to taste great, and that it lasts for maybe 14 days from roasting. Also a lot of them have done blind tasting to gauge if the storing method can improve the life cycle, and supposedly the vacuum sealing does slightly help (perhaps because the CO₂ and other volatile chemicals have more trouble escaping the seed when there's no oxygen available), same for vacuum sealing and freezing it. But yet again, subjective taste testing even though they are what you'd call professional tasters.

    It is so simple to cook your own raw coffee beans as I learned many years ago whilst teaching in Sarawak. All you need is a wok, moderately hot heat and a little time. We take time for cooking food, why not do the same once a week for our favourite cuppa. And just as your first BBQ burger might not have been your best, practice does make perfect. (I haven’t tried the popcorn popper but will. Sounds intriguing.) Namaste and care, mhikl

    Thank you so much for speaking on this. I used a rotisserie to roast out of my garage, and always instructed my recipients to consume within one week, after doing extensive research finding the same results. I was on a quest to find that perfect cup as well. 1997 marked the introduction to my first delicious taste from a friend who acquired fresh Honduran coffee and did a pour-over through a simple sieve at the kitchen sink (which shocked me!). I was never able to reproduce the same flavors until I roasted my own Honduran coffee in 2008. Also, regarding the 'infomercial' and 'ponytail' or other derogatory comments, I'd like to give a comment as well: Asher Yaron's fantastic! His love for the craft, willingness to do the research, excitement to share his knowledge, and effort to bring valuable health information to the world through a TEDx Talk is noteworthy, and it helps the coffee industry to improve their standards. I appreciate the effort and boldness to speak, and understand the enthusiasm to create small-batch roasting products so more people can enjoy the benefits. Following his passion and making a profitable business is wonderful!

If people have spoken about his gentleman’s hair, makes me wonder, judgement on cultures is racism; judgment on a physical aspect someone has is still judgement - where is the line drawn that negative judgement is ok?

    The entire video is that in order to have the best coffee, you need heat to roast it. We've done this in our family since forever and he's right, it's the best tasting coffee ever. When we came to the US, my mom would always roast the beans on Saturday mornings and we would grind them in an old world grinder. The house was always smoking because we had nowhere outside to do it. But strangely, neighbors would stop by "just to say hello" and of course my parents would offer coffee.

    Scientifically, beans are the seeds of LEGUMES. Coffee is not in the legume family, so he is correct from a taxonomic perspective . Informally, the word "bean" does have more flexible usage beyond the legume family, such as in our example here, "coffee bean". Now, if someone disagrees with me about all this I might want to bean them (but I won't).

    Saudi Arabic coffee is the best,most natural. When we want to make our Arabic coffee, we roast coffee beans till they'll brown (only brown, not burnt black like how Westerners roast or burn ;) their coffee ). Then we grind the coffee, and make it. Try our natural, roasted not burnt, Arabic coffee. (a very small amount of spices are added,too, just to give the fresh coffee a "hint" of these spices. Also we don't add sugar to our coffee, but drink it while eating something sweet; traditionally while eating dates).

    The Guy's absolutely right. I've been roasting my own coffee for 8+ years. It really does make all the difference. But ya certainly don't need a big Heath Robinson contraption like that. A popcorn popper works like a charm, As soon as second crack starts tip into a metal collender and pour between another one or matal pan, to cease the roasting as quickly as possible. Small batches but it only takes about 3 mins a batch so it's easy to do 8 or 10 batches, depending on how much you drink in a week. But you really need a decent quality machine and a good bur grinder. Certainly to get the best out of it. Green beans are very easily sourced on the internet. Especially for you yanks. And they don't incur any VAT here in the UK until roasted.

You can nowadays buy it also in capsules and it is amazing to realize that a 50 euro machine can brew a wonderful espresso, given the good freshly roasted coffee is used. Yes... marketing and media are brainwashing people in believing that the coffee you can find in supermarkets is the good one... but is enough to walk near the local neighbourhood torrefazione to realize how things really are...

Maybe this is why we are one of the most or the most unhealthy country? because we are mainly getting antioxidants from coffee which it doesn't have enough of to keep us healthy...and that's only one thing there's many other things he twisted a little...it's difficult to be unbiased about something you already enjoy...

The regular ted speakers are professors from like harvard or other ivy league universities overseas or research universities or are people even kids(geniuses) who have made really crazy/interesting inventions or discoveries and have decent science, clinical data or an actual original invention or concept to show or explain. This coffee thing isn't an original idea or concept, just because the US or other countries don't usually have this doesn't mean it's rare in other parts of the world, like he talked about other cultures doing this even ancient ones a few people here and there already do this...

    If you loved this presentation, you may also want to know that there's research out there saying that coffee makes heart and vessel disease (cardiovascular disease) worse because it raises LDL cholesterol, but that’s not the whole story! We now know that LDL particles can either be large and buoyant, or small and dense. When LDL particles are large and buoyant, they can help decrease risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). And coffee can transition LDL particles from small and dense to large and buoyant, decreasing CVD risk!

    Coffee needs to rest after roasting for 2-3 days so it can off gas and open up. Otherwise the taste is not as present. And when brewing espresso I found the coffee to be fine from day 3-4 depending on the coffee you have but is most often best from day 7-12.

    Stefan Sigfinnsson Sorry Stefan, I totally disagree. Coffee starts deteriorating immediately after roasting. I have actually changed my views about this and think that coffee only needs to cool to room temp after roasting and needs NO rest time! 8 years ago the industry used to think 2-3 weeks was the appropriate rest time....now that time frame has been cut drastically as people are waking up to the understanding that fresh is best. The current leading edge specialty coffee creators like The Roasting Plant, roastingplant.com/ guarantee that their coffee is not older than 48 hours after roasting. So what happened to 2 weeks? How about 1 week? You need to do the tests and it is difficult and time consuming to do because you need at least a 2 group Espresso machine, and 2 separate grinders calibrated perfectly. I have the equipment and I have done the tests comparing just roasted coffee to coffee that has been sitting 4 hours, 8 hours, 12 hours, 16 hours, 20 hours, etc., etc. And I have not been the only one doing the tasting. I have worked with professional Sommeliers (wine tasting experts) and we have done the tests blind. Same results every time........fresh is best!

    Educational. The point was that he wanted to inform people about home roasting. If it's easier for others to buy an electric roaster than improvising like he did, he offered a cheaper alternative. I don't read any more into it than that he was very enthusiastic about making it easier for others.

His is probably in the 600-1300 USD range which IS easily affordable for all but the smallest coffee shops. His device is solely targeted at businesses, which is nice. I consider the machine a very minor point in the very interesting talk.

Some commonly accepted factoids which are not true, e.g. coffee is the second largest commodity, often repeated but definitely not factual.. etc. The guy's an enthusiastic auto-didact, no harm in that, but doesn't belong on the TED stage.

Some of the beans from the Philippines are delicious. It only takes some maximum of 9 minutes to roast 8 oz. If you roast 6 seconds too long you get Starbucks; Burned coffee that you have to flavor. It stinks like crazy when it's roasting. Smells like the house is burning down, but when that 8 hours of rest is complete, let the grinding begin. Nothing tastes and me aroma is so good is perfectly roasted coffee fresh daily.

I have fought bipolar and cyclothymia coming up on 40 years now. Only Lamictal (Lamotragine) has helped.
