Backyard Coffee

I love good coffee. My favorite is Hula Daddy Coffee from Kona, Hawaii. On a trip to Hawaii and the Big Island we spent a day going to the Hula Daddy Coffee Farm and store. It was quite enlightening on the whole process from growing to roasting. Living in zone 9B I thought, why not try a plant, it will be a great conversation piece. Little did I know I would be roasting my own pot of coffee soon.

I know this is an old thread, but it just popped up on my home page and I had to follow the link. I have been tossing the idea around of trying to grow my own (coffee, that is) for years but have never done anything about it. Mostly I was concerned was it worth the trouble. How would it taste? Thanks to your article, I think I may have to revisit this idea!
