Cecil just came by to ask me some questions on processing. I gave him what resources I have but I strongly recommend that you try to register at coffeed.com They have a restricted membership but it says that quality driven growers have a good chance of acceptance. Even the archived forums would be useful to you. There are tons of members on there that would be happy to help you.
