Join us at Synergy Flavors Inc. in companionship with the WFFC Chicago chapter for an educational session, to reconnect and network. Edward Fuchs, Senior Research Scientist for Synergy Flavors in Hamilton, Ohio, will cover a range of Coffee topics, beginning with some history, following processing, roast reactions, coffee quality grading, and ending with brewed coffee beverages.
The information provided will enhance your knowledge of Coffee and the various terms used by farmers, importers, and roasters. At the very least, the next time you see “Honey Coffee” in a coffee shop, you’ll know what it means and what flavor to expect (and it’s not honey).
A tour of Synergy flavors labs and commercial space will be included along with a buffet and beverage.
