    The idea of organic as a coffee roaster myself, is to reduce harm to the environnement where the coffee is grown, organic fairtrade shade grown coffee is the only way to be able to continue to provide coffee in the future. The impact of sun grown commercial coffee, is top soil degradation,errosion and drought. Like everything else, the rise of demand for organic coffee will make it cheaper in the long run!

      Great explanation. Yes, it would make sense from an environmental perspective. Hopefully prices will come down.

    Do we really need it, though?

      No, regular coffee is just fine. The differences are really minuscule in terms of contaminants.

    Dr. Kuehne, do you recommend povidone-iodine as a nasal antiseptic? 🃏🎱🎲

    • @JonasKuehneMD

      Yes, it can be used diluted as a nasal spray antiseptic. Another option is a one percent solution of hydrogen peroxide.

    Please buy organic coffee from India 😊 I can get you cheaper ones for you
    The sprays are directly on the berries to protect against berry borers and again insecticides sprayed at the berries to remove the ants on it. These are not going anywhere other than on the beans.
    Also your understanding of coffee estates seems to be poor. It's grown in vast swaths where separating organic and non organic areas is easy. Leaching of chemical fertilizers is possible across, but that's just few feets on the ground and we have live fences that takes the hit from across the chemical farms as well, nothing gets to the berries directly like the pesticides. It can be verified by testing for traces.
    Also produce goes down by 30-40% if you do organic because they are not on drugs (chemicals) to maximise weight. I would bet that chemicals even impact the taste of the coffee.
    Btw roasting can potentially maximise the chemical impact that's in the beans like caramelization of the beans. Be careful.
    In summary it is expensive to grow organic natural quality coffee unlike the ones grown on drugs. So it has to be expensive. You don't have to give frivolous reasons to justify buying coffee laced with pesticides. Go ahead and enjoy it.

      You’re welcome. I bought a bunch of organic coffee before I did my research. Now I’m enjoying my better tasting cheap brew.
