Roasting is a key challenge in the transition to sustainability in the coffee industry, great opportunity to students at Chalmers Students for Sustainability ;)
What is the cost of producing 1kg of coffee if all costs are included?
At the remaining lectures we'll serve food from arguably the best falafel place in town - Sunset Falafel. Also, 100% vegan.
