Science Under the Stars: Science from the Coffee-Lands
Thursday, October 10, 2013, 07:30pm - 09:00pm
Science Under the Stars presents: Alejandro Berrío - "Science from the Coffee-lands."

"After oil, coffee is the most used product in the world. More than half of adult Americans consume at least one cup a day and many of its notable health benefits have been recently discovered. Aside of many fun facts about coffee, there are several difficulties that coffee growers face to bring this amazing beverage to your hand. This talk will describe how Colombians have produced the best coffee in the world for over a century and will explore how their scientific achievements have improved its quality and production size."

Science Under the Stars is a free public outreach lecture series in Austin, Texas. Events start at 7:30pm outdoors at Brackenridge Field Laboratory, 2907 Lake Austin Blvd, Austin, Texas 78703. Arrive early for refreshments and fun activities for kids of all ages!
