Video Transcript:
- Jacques Farm, which is in the Atherton Tablelands of Mareeba, has been there for over 30 years, they grow, and distribute, and roast their own bean.
- Out here we have 85,000 Arabica coffee trees, producing a really high quality coffee. The whole plantation consists of about 200 acres with two kilometers of creek frontage. We also have a plantation cafe along with obviously, the kitchen and the factories and everything else that goes along with it. We have various pumps around the property that are consuming electricity. We also have four residences here as well. So, along with the residences, the factories, the cafe, the kitchen, the pumps, there's a lot of energy usage to keep a farm going. The biggest energy user on a farm is the pumps. If you can negate the power that you use in your pumps, then you're on a winner. Now that isn't very expensive for the water itself, the main consideration is the power pumping the water out of the creek, over the coffee trees.
- So the brief was, at stage one, was to do the 85 kilowatts. So, you wanted a panel that could maximize it's return. Being that Mareeba is an hour west of Cairns, it does get quite hot there and we're really worried about the temperature coefficiency. He knew all about that and he wanted the NeON R. So, that was a pretty easy brief for us to fulfill.
- The NeON R, obviously arguably, the best panel on the planet at the moment. And, I mainly chose it because of the technology behind it, also the temperature coefficient. We're up here in North Queensland and it gets hot. In the hot weather, the panels are going to be performing a hell of a lot better.
- He did a lot of research before approaching us and hence we quoted with a high end LG NeON R range panel, 85 kilowatts across four electricity counts to supply them with 44 cents. So, they're right in the midst of installing that on existing carport roofs and then we got another 80 kilowatts to cover the cafe and also a pump house. Across the installations, they'll be 165 kilowatts of solar panel and inverters gonna be installed across the four sites and savings stage 1, 85 kilowatts, will have a pay back period of less than 2 years. Even with the high end quality spec'ed. The cafe and the pump house, which will go on the cafe and the workshop, is expected to have a pay back of about only 3 and a half years. So, economically, he said it was a no brainer.
- It's crazy if you don't. If you're not using solar power, you're A, you're costing a lot of extra carbon dioxide going into the atmosphere. B, your hit pocket. It's the main consideration.

Coffee Works - Mareeba.
An experience to remember if visiting Mareeba as Coffee Works is a great display of coffee and its history. Free sampling of coffees, chocolate and the teas the they produce plus a woderful world class museum display of coffee realted equipment and tools from around the world. I'm not a coffee drinker and I really enjoyed this experience. Its well worth a vist to Coffee Works in Mareeba.

Skybury
When talking about coffee, the famous cafes of Paris, Berlin and London all come to mind..but they have to get their beans from somewhere right...and here in Tropical North Queensland is the largest exporter of Australian grown coffee.
I'm at Skybury Coffee Plantation, on the Atherton Tablelands.
Started in 1987, this family based business is the passion of Ian and Marion MacLaughlin and now son Mark is the Farm Manager.
Mark is taking us on one of the guided tours available. Its a great way to see how it all works and where that latte begins.
After the farm tour its off to the coffee centre.
Skybury uses a technique first developed by the MacLaughins that keeps the freshness all the way from the tree to the cup.
The attention to detail here is second to none. Everything from the picking to the grinding is aimed at retaining the originality and taste for the customer.
Skybury Coffee Plantation is located 10 minutes from Mareeba, and around 1 hour drive from Cairns.
The farm and coffee centre are open from 10am-4pm daily and all ages are welcome
You can drive yourself, or transfers are available through various tour companies.
...For all the latest details and pricing, just jump on their website.

Segway tour Jaques Coffee Plantation
August 2, 2013: the day after Segways became legal to use on public pathways in Queensland, we headed out to Jaques Coffee Plantation near Mareeba and hopped on board for our very first personal transporter experience with our friendly and helpful guide, Pettina. There's no restrictions governing the use of Segways on private property, but bike helmets (provided) are an essential safety item - and yes, we did have a few interesting moments, mainly due to NOT trusting the intuitive operation of the Segway X-2! If you crave power & control, you will love the Segway - it has both in spades. Lots of fun and highly recommended.
