My friend Wyatt joined the podcast to chat about the connection between coffee and nature! Wyatt is a coffee educator at an awesome coffee shop in Southern California called Lamill.
In this episode, we talk about the hard labor that is involved with the process of getting coffee seeds into your cup. Keeping 'leave no trace' in mind, I wanted to chat with Wyatt about the full stream process involved in coffee making and how we can make more mindful decisions about where we get our coffee and how we make it when we're out traveling in nature.
We also chat about the three best coffee brewing methods for when you're out on the road! You can view each method in this YouTube video we crafted together: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H53-x6Q1ZIA
