    Off college for the summer and can't find any work mainly due to living in middle of nowhere. So I decided to roast some coffee in a traditional way using a wood oven. I have many years experience with coffee so this will be a nice project for me.

    If all goes to plan I hope to sell to shops and cafes in my area. The thing is I live near a gaeltacht and would like a good irish name. This might also help me get some grant money for businesses starting in the gaeltacht area.

    I am asking you good people of AH to help me with naming my wood fired coffee product. In return I will offer 10% discount to boards.ie users if I ever get that far=).Do we have a deal?

    Hmmm. Bog is also a toilet. Appropriate in some ways but it just doesnt sound right.

    I'd say Café McCaféyface, but McDonald's might take issue with that.

    Remember it needs to be an Irish name. And maybe something to do with the fact that it is wood fired.

    Put up a picture of a comely flame-haired maiden roasting the beans on the packet, and another of a cup of coffee being filled with milk.

    The coffee bean. Except bean as in woman. Have a photo of a woman making coffee on the label.

    Edit: if you sell tea as well you can call it Bean on ti.
