Phil Zimmerly of Common Grounds coffee shop on Main Street installed a coffee roaster this summer. Now Bluffton coffee drinkers are enjoying it fresh from the back room. Click for a video.
Talk to Phil Zimmerly long enough and you’ll learn something about coffee. For example, coffee is a tree. Beans are really seeds. The pits are what you end up with to make coffee.
I know this because Phil told me. Our conversation took place as he shared with me his secrets of roasting coffee – a skill he mastered this summer.
Have you seen my arborvitae flower in a cedar box (see photo)?
While we were in Maine it was stolen from our parking lot. It had to have taken two people because it is at least 150 lbs. And it is a $275.-$300 item, one of a kind.
If you have seen this arborvitae flower in a cedar box, please call 419-358-6950 or the Sheriff at 419-227-3535.
I have already called the Sheriff so I have filed a report on the item.
