This is the 2nd episode of a five-part series on The Daily Coffee Pro by Map It Forward Podcast, hosted by Map It Forward founder, Lee Safar.

Our Guest on the podcast this week is Nolan Hirte from Proud Mary Coffee (Melb, Austin, Portland) and Aunty Peg's (Melbourne).

In this series, Lee and Nolan will explore the state of the coffee industry and where it may be headed.

In this eye-opening episode of The Daily Coffee Pro by Map It Forward, Lee and Nolan dive deep into the critical issues facing the specialty coffee industry in 2024, addressing what we did as an industry to create this crisis.

From the impact of biodiversity on coffee quality to the controversial topic of infused and co-fermented coffees, they explore how the industry has strayed from its roots and what needs to be done to restore harmony.

The episode also features a discussion on the privilege and marketing strategies that have shaped the industry's landscape.
