Coffee trade magazines

[CafeWench]

I searched the past forums to find out if anyone had talked or asked about the trade magazines put out by various companies.

I read coffee and tea trade magazine fairly regularly. I've also just subscribed to the specialty coffee trade magazine and Roast magazine.

My question is what is your favorite monthly/bi monthly read that keeps you informed about the industry. Also, any suggestions on which magazines have the most reliable content.


I also read online coffee sites such as coffeegeek.com. Anyone have any other suggestions about information available on the net?

I am not sure whether the posting is out of order or not, but I am sure the moderators will let me know if I have gone a step to far. in fact I am happy if moderators want to delete this post if putting the links up are out of order.

I personally run a non profit coffee wiki, and online shared roastlog and blending application. These are open to all and you do not have to be a member of anything to use them. They are simple free internet resources to be used by all.

They are there free to use, add information to them if you want, or simply use the information that's already there. I have no real idea of how popular they are, because I don't keep detailed stats.

This forum also has a Wiki as well and there are some good articles in it.
