Little Story from Traditional Coffee Business in Temanggung Indonesia: University-Business-Government Collaboration (a) Faculty of Law, Universitas Muhammadiyah Magelang, Magelang, Indonesia Abstract Since 2011, coffee products were designated as one of the leading products in Temanggung Regency. Since then, coffee SMEs have sprung up in Temanggung and are mostly traditionally managed home producers enjoyed by many coffee connoisseurs in Indonesia. However, customer demand for Temanggung coffee is not comparable to the production capacity produced by coffee producers. Therefore, as a strengthening of Temanggung Coffee products, collaboration between the University-Business-Government is needed through the Regional Superior Product Development Program. Through this activity, 2 (two) partners who had been producing ground coffee for 2 (two) years were selected and needed science and technology diffusion in the fields of processing technology, improved production management, product development, management of brand rights, and marketing. At first partner (Manunggal Coffee), the current production uses a roaster machine and there is an increase in production reaching 150 kg from the previous average of only 100 kg per month. Currently also serving roasting services for communities around SMEs. On the financial management side, currently the SME standard administration is in order. Meanwhile, for second partner (Gesing Coffee), it has coordinated with farmers and the village government for uniform quality of picking and post-harvest handling for stocks. Currently, Gesing Coffee has produced its own roaster machine. In addition, this SMEs has also served roaster services. The test results showed that the roaster was able to process 36 kg of coffee with 3 kg of LPG.
