  • čas pƙidĂĄn 9. 08. 2019
  • Why is kopi luwak, or civet coffee, the most expensive in the world? Every bean has passed through the digestive system of an Asian palm civet and then collected in its #poop. The beans were then washed and roasted, ready to be made into a cup of #coffee. Here we go!
    Big thanks to Simon who sent me the kopi luwak to make this episode possible! đŸ„ł

      It's admirable that they say that to the one purchasing the product, but then again I don't trust that they are being honest about it. Think how valuable this stuff is, don't you think saying that also increases the value of the product? It seems unlikely you could ever forage enough of this stuff to sell on any mass market level, but I could be wrong.

      Part of the reason the coffee is supposed to be superior is that the animals are selective about which beans/berries they eat and they pick the best ones. When they're caged and force fed, they don't get to select the best of the best. So it's not only unethical but it defeats the whole purpose of the coffee!

      A little history trivia*
      Kopi luwak originated from indonesia, specifically from the colonial time, at the time indonesia is being occupied and enslaved/colonized by the netherlands. The invaders prohibit any of the slaves as they call them to consume coffee as all coffee from the plantation are being exported in the spice trade. Here is where the Civet comes. The civet eat the coffee fruit and digest only the meat of the fruit as their natural diet, pooping out the coffee seed and spreading the seed all over the forest. Then the locals as deperate as they are to get their coffee "fix" pick up the poops, wash em, and roasted them, and then with desperation brew the coffee. As it turns out the coffee tasted waaaaaay better. The colonials knew this and laugh at the locals for drinking "poop", little did they know that they are missing out big time.

      @@dvh3113 nah man the cats can't digest them fully, they swallow the berries (which is what the actual coffee beans as we know them are inside of) so the berries come out intact save for just the skin/partial outer layer of the berry; the workers get the berries out of the feces and send them off to be washed before the beans are ever taken out of the "shell" so to speak. The whole reason for this is that the civets only pick and swallow the highest quality berries, so basically the civets are quality control lol

    Emmy! Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart! I'm Indonesian and I was so happy when I read the title that you're reviewing Kopi Luwak. I do concern about the animal abuse in processing these beans. I'm also a barista and surprised when you use V60 to brew your coffee. The way you pour your water to the V60 or French Press can actually effect the taste of the coffee itself, called Manual Brewing. But I'm really happy that you're reviewing another Indonesian food etc. You should try to make Rendang for your next Indonesian video. I really appreciate it, you're one of my favorite CZcamsr. Thanks again Emmy!

    Hey Emmy! Just thought I’d give you a little quick tip! I’ve been a barista for 8 years now and if you’d like your beans to stay fresher longer i would strongly suggest you put them in a container that light cannot penetrate rather than the glass jar you’re currently using! Coffee beans will become stale much more quickly when exposed to light!

I get why women on CZcams feel pressured to have perfect, polished nails in every video, especially when they're makers and the camera is on their hands a lot. But as a parent, it makes me feel a bit validated to see hands that look like mine do, and like my mother's did--like they've been gardening, scrubbing, repairing, cooking, playing... I think working hands are beautiful, and women should be just as proud of them as men are. đŸ™Œâ€đŸ˜

    Thanks for tasting this for us Emmy! Pour over and french press are my two favorite methods for drinking coffee. I know you want to keep it simple in the morning and I can certainly relate. Next time you want to compare, I would recommend using the same method of brewing as french press is what gave your civets coffee that milky quality (the filter in your pour over keeps the smaller particles out). Also, measuring the amount and temperature of water will make a difference. Personally, I would be much less particular with my every day cup of coffee than I would with something as expensive as civet coffee....I'd probably break out all the science equipment for that!

    You posted this the day I decided to finally brewed the civet coffee my brother sent me from when he visited vietnam! He only sent me enough for about 3 cups due to the price. I thought it was a Good Smooth Cup Of Coffee, but there are a lot of places I can get beans that produce that that aren't $80+/lb. I usually drink Trader Joes low acid french roast and I do think the civet coffee was less acidic & smoother than that, but "fancy coffee" for me is maybe like $12-15/lb and I don't think anything more than that is truly worth it from the view of someone who doesn't professionally drink coffee.

    Toe of Satan? Poop of Civet? Plus Kit Kat's and Mentos? Something sweet after the heat. And some freshness after poop breakfast. Simon is so thoughtful.😂

    Toe of Satan, please?
    What I would love to see is you doing the current hot ones lineup. If I had the money, I would send you the sauces.
