For advanced ASL users- what descriptive elements (classifiers) did you notice in this reel?

With warmer weather just around the corner, it made me think of my trip to Hawai’i last summer! It’s pretty cool how coffee is made, right?

Coffee Farm
Do you see where I am?
I’m here at a coffee farm on Island of Hawai’i.
It's in the southern part of The Big Island called Ka'u.
It's called the Ka'ū Coffee Mill.
We came to see how coffee is made!
The process starts by harvesting coffee cherries from the trees.
They are checked to make sure they're ripe.
There are different ways they are washed.
Some are fully washed,
some are semi-washed
and others are left natural.
The beans are then dried and processed until they are ready to roast.
After roasting they are ground and filtered into a cup of coffee!
After seeing this, I enjoy coffee even more!
Every morning I must have my coffee.
Now, I can bring Ka'ū coffee home with me!

VD: In this reel, Stephanie, a white woman, is outfitted in a cropped white tee paired with olive green shorts, accented by gold hoop earrings and a subtle bar necklace. Her brown hair is casually styled, with sunglasses resting on her head. The backdrop features Kau's Coffee Farm, where she stands amid the middle rows of coffee cherry trees. Below her, the ground is covered with unmowed grass, and the sky above displays partly cloudy weather.
