Grab an espresso machine and explore the world of Robusta coffee. Even the good espresso blends are a mix of Robusta and Arabica.
It’s less pleasant to drink in other ways, like drip/French press and stuff. But espresso really pulls the oils out of the beans and they’re more fun than 100% Arabica.
More tolerant to climate change too.

For smaller / independent cafes:
1. 25% of the revenue goes to rent.
2. Independent cafes do not buy any damned ‘futures’.
As a matter of fact those rising ‘futures’ affects starbucs, mcdonalds, tim and other chains … but not really.
