Opened in 2005, Casa Brasil Coffees is the first United States coffee company to focus on directly trading and offering gourmet Brazilian beans from seed to cup.

Shuler recently translated Pos-Colheita do Café, a textbook on post-harvest coffee technologies (English title: Handbook of Coffee Post-Harvest Technology: A Comprehensive Guide to the Processing, Drying, and Storage of Coffee).
