Ungakwazi yini ukufaka umquba esikhwameni sakho sekhofi?

Njengomuntu onomkhuba wokuphuza ikhofi, izikhwama ezisele zihlala zinqwabelana ekhishini lami. Bengicabanga ngalokhu lapho kufika isikhwama sobhontshisi esivela e-Ashland, e-Oregon's Noble Coffee Roasting, ngenxa yokubhalisela kwami ​​​​i-Misto Box. Ngabona ilebula elincane phansi: “Lesi sikhwama siyabola futhi singaba ngumquba. Sicela ususe i-tin tie ne-valve ngaphambi kokufaka umquba.”

Ngingakwazi yini ngempela ukumboza lesi sikhwama? Bekungenzekani uma ngisibeka emgqonyeni kadoti esikhundleni salokho? Ngokushesha ngazithola ngibhekana nesihloko esingelula ngaso sonke isikhathi njengoba singase sibonakale.

Ukushintshela ekupakisheni okuzinzile kakhudlwana

Ezinkampanini zekhofi ezizibophezele ekuzinzeni, ukupakisha kuyisici esibalulekile ebhizinisini lazo, futhi eziningi seziqalile ukuqhela izikhwama zendabuko ezifakwe i-foil. Umthelela ungaba mkhulu. Njalo ngeviki, i-micro-roaster Noble idlula isilinganiso samaphakheji angu-500 ama-ounce angu-12 kanye namaphakheji angu-250 angamakhilogremu amahlanu. “Uma ucabanga ngalokho ngaphezu konyaka noma ngaphezulu, lokho kuyinto eningi. Futhi siyinkampani eyodwa encane,” kusho uJared Rennie, umsunguli kanye ne-CEO yeNoble Coffee. “Uma iningi lethu izinkampani ezincane—nezinye izinkampani ezinkulu—besingathatha lolu hlobo lokuthutha, bekuyoba nomthelela ngempela.”

Kunezindlela ezahlukahlukene zokukhetha izikhwama ezifakwa umquba. Abanye kini kungenzeka ukuthi sebevele babonile ukupakishwa kwe-Omnidegradable okuvela ku-Tonchant® Solutions (okusetshenziswa yizinkampani ezifana ne-Wrecking Ball Coffee) kanye ne-Biotrē evela ku-Pacific Bag, Inc. Lesi sikhwama sokugcina yisikhwama engisithole okokuqala ku-Noble Coffee Roasting, futhi sisetshenziswa abanye abashisi abaningi abadumile njenge-Counter Culture, i-Spyhouse Coffee, i-Water Avenue Coffee, kanye ne-Huckleberry. Okuhlukanisa lezi zikhwama ezimbili ezikhethekile kwezinye izinketho ezifakwa umquba kanye nezibolayo (njengesikhwama sephepha esimsulwa, isibonelo) ukuthi ziza nomgoqo odingekayo ukuvikela ikhofi. Ingxenye engaphandle yalesi sikhwama isekelwe ephepheni kanti i-liner yangaphakathi iyipulasitiki enesengezo esivumela ukuthi ibole ngokuhamba kwesikhathi.
