PORTLAND, Ore. (April 4, 2022) โ€” A new book called Green Coffee: A Guide for Roasters and Buyers by Chris Kornman looks at green coffeeโ€”the coffee bean in its unroasted formโ€”surveying history, processing methods, sourcing practices, evaluation protocols, and much more on the path to understanding whatโ€™s behind exceptional coffee.

Through research, experimentation, collaboration and personal experience, author and coffee professional Chris Kornman offers a pragmatic, approachable breakdown of what it takes to appreciate and work with green coffee.

โ€œEach step in the process and every hand that plays a part irreversibly alters the final product,โ€ Kornman says. โ€œUnderstanding the context and background of coffee before it is roasted is one of the tradeโ€™s best-kept secrets. With this book, I wanted to lift the veil and shed light on these areas of the industry so that roasters and buyers are equipped to successfully navigate the world of green coffee.โ€
