Wow, at 7g/single espresso shot that equals to nearly 6 of them a day. You got some serious addiction going on. |
 Yeah, I suppose I do. A typical day is 4 shots of espresso and a pot of French Press coffee. Espresso doesn't have all that much caffeine, though any caffeine I'm not getting from that I instead get from all the tea I drink as well. |

The best business model is one where you take an existing product, tweak it and market it in the correct way.
I loved this coffee http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kopi_Luwak when I was in Vietnam, why not try it 'Korean style,' have some ajummas' eat a load of coffee beans, crap them out and roast them afterwards.
I think this product would be hugely successful and there is a glut of ajummas' out there willing to help you out.
You could start off paying the w5,000 an hour so your startup costs would be low!
You could have a label of each one on the back of the coffee telling the buyer a little about each of their life histories. |
Haha, this is the best idea ever. Definitely do this! |

Survey your market environment.
Are there many other roasters?
Otherwise, you aren't splitting the atom here.
I hate to say it, but it seems that far too many Koreans seem to equate "entrepreneurship" with...opening a cafe, because that's not working for a chaebol, so surely it's innovative.
There are four coffee shops on my block offering their own roasted beans for exorbitant prices.
Make it more than a roastery. An artspace? Live music venue? Improv? Otherwise...You are no different from Angel-in-Us. |
