Jayapura (ANTARA) - One of the SCAE (Specialty Coffee Association of Europe) certified baristas in Jayapura City, Piter Tan, encouraged the youths in Yoboi Village to come up with unique menus resulting from blending coffee.

The owner of the Pit's Corner Coffee Shop and also Barista Piter Tan in a press release in Jayapura, Monday, said the idea to come up with this unique menu was adapted to the local wisdom that exists in Kampung Yoboi.

"Kampung Yoboi is already unique, if it serves local culinary menus, it can provide its own selling value," he said.

According to Piter, for example, if you serve coffee using coconut water, or use coconut shells to serve coffee to consumers.

"Don't be afraid to start mixing coffee without modern equipment, because only firewood can boil water to make coffee," he said.

He explained that coffee beans can also be ground manually so that they can still serve coffee with makeshift equipment.

"In essence, serving coffee does not have to use modern equipment, what is around can be used according to its designation," he said again.

In line with Piter Tan, the owner of the Djuang Coffee Shop, Rejha Prayoga who is also one of the baristas, said that Yoboi youths must be able to show their abilities that those in the village can also be the same as those in the city.

"From the training for the Yoboi youth alone, it can be seen that of the 16 people trained, it has been seen that they have the potential and talent to pursue the profession as coffee brewers," he said.

He added that he hopes that those who have participated in the training can continue to learn and practice so that the coffee that is blended has a qualified quality to be served to consumers.

Previously, the social community "Doing Deep and Wise for New Generation" (D2WNG) held training and introduction to coffee for young people in Yoboi Village, Sentani District, Jayapura Regency for two days.

After being trained, the Yoboi youths were also given tools and equipment that could be used to open a small coffee shop in the local area.

D2WNG Social Community Secretary Dhias Suwandi said that his party hoped that the training and delivery of assistance could help and support Yoboi Village to develop its territory as a tourist spot, especially ahead of the XX Papua PON.
