Daily Bread for 4.26.26: Grading the Coffee Market

Good morning.

Sunday in Whitewater will be cloudy with a high of 65. Sunrise is 5:56 and sunset is 7:50 for 13 hours 54 minutes of daytime. The moon is a waxing gibbous with 75.4 percent of its visible disk illuminated.

On this day in 1986, the Chernobyl disaster occurs near the (now-abandoned) industrial city of Pripyat in the Soviet Union.


Why This One Coffee Tasting Impacts the Price of Coffee:

WSJ got an exclusive look inside the room where expert graders sniff, slurp and spit to set the global benchmark for coffee.
