Weather unpredictability/climate change is a leading factor in future coffee prices. Making the small coffee grower looking to expand their land used to cultivate coffee. Felling of rain forests will accelerate current trends in a changing climate. adding even more unpredictability to coffee supplies and future prices. With the current world price at 90 cents a pound is making profitability in many countries nearly impossible With production cost at about $1.50 per pound. The shortest answer is to grow more coffee witch takes more land, ,fewer trees, more c02, additional climate effects . Climate change and general weather unpredictability are one of the driving forces in the roller coaster ride coffee prices are having and will likely continue to have in the foreseeable future. Perhaps second only to the never ending political unrest in many coffee growing regions.
The Hario Skerton is a ceramic burr mill that's hand operated, portable, and affordable. It'll set you back about $28.00 It holds plenty of coffee for your morning brew (about 100g at a time, so if you're making a lot it may take a couple of grinding sessions), offers a nice, consistent grind and a comfortable grip while you're using it, and it's easy to clean out when you're finished. It's lightweight, and even if you don't use it with the included coffee container, it fits a standard mason jar, so you can attach it to one of those and grind to your heart's content. The bottom is rubberized so it doesn't slide around your countertops while you grind, either.
