Beans

Today is International Coffee Day. The humble little coffee bean is more than just a pick me up. Coffee is the second most traded commodity in the world behind crude oil. While enjoying your brew, spare a moment and think about where those rich grains of magic came from.

These pics are from a kopi (a local type of coffee) factory in Selangor, Malaysia.
