Why, you stuck up, half-witted, scruffy-looking Nerf herder! You and your lovely wife are invited to The Shops holiday party. When? Tues, Dec 29th! Dancin', Cheer, DJ Magic Murph & Yella, wear your true holiday spirit!
no...he has moved on. One of these days I will be doing a cross country coffeehouse tour starting in the NY area and heading west. Gimme is definately on the list!
ha! :) that was meant for eric. A couple of us are going to Columbus for a barista jam tomorrow. Wish you could be there! :) We'd have to bring Gasset and Goldie though, if you came. It just wouldn't be right without them. :) Hope you guys are well and enjoying good coffee!
theres no "ordering" going to take place. you're just going to send ME coffee. "...talk to your manger..." ha. nobody puts slowhand in a corner. p.s. you might want to take a listen to the song i just put up on my profile... um ya!
black on black, on black! all black everything! noir en noir (thats french bitch). i will be expecting a half-pound (a bird in the hood) of that good good Barker/Gimme shipped every week... gotta sling!
Will do Brett - I hope all works out well for you out there. Hopefully Barista Mag works out!! Remember that I'll have some free passes and maybe even an exhibitor badge for you if you come to CF next year when it is in NJ!
Hey
So I competed with you in Millrock in Chicago this past Feb.
I was just browsing your profile and saw that you are located in Dayton Ohio. Thats my home town (I'm just in Chicago for College).
I can't even believe I'm seeing that you work at Pacchia. I've been there numerous times and I always assumed it was a cocktail lounge(i was there for the evening jazz)
Thanks guys! I'm definitely going to be looking for cafe work in Asheville come April, probably make a trip out there in the next month or so to schlepp my resume around to every decent-looking place I can find. I'm currently working to get my baris…
Some theorise that curved tampers are preferable based on the shape of the dispersion screen. I find the idea that a curve would work well to push grounds to a more even distribution when tamping a mound rather than an even dispersion interesting. I…

Out of all of the intelligentsia coffees that you are currently serving, I enjoy the house blend the best. The taste and the aroma of the coffee doesn't leave a bitter taste in my mouth. I did enjoy the Ethiopia Yirgacheffe quite a bit. It will be m…
Sant-Eustachio and Tazzo d'Oro in Rome were two I swung by. Tazzo was actually closed as it was a Sunday. Eustachio was open and busy, serving some eye-opening cappucinos. Definitely a dip in, dip out, check out the sites.
Cafe Florian in the middle…
You can check out two leaves and a bud, they have a large organic selections, and the teas are good!! You gotta seek out different tea stores in your town, You will be surprise of the huge selections they have, and try to see if you can find authent…
Ahhh... welcome to the rabbit hole.
Much of this stuff has been covered pretty extensively on here recently. Just read through recent discussions. Other great resources include the Coffeed and HomeBarista web communities. Roasting stuff is there, f…
I think growing coffee in many parts of the continental US is not a problem. The issue is if you added the word "Commercially viable". Pretty average coffee is succesfully grown outside of the tight coffee belt that stretches north to south between…
I'll agree 100%, and add two things to this, since we're talking about it.
By law, you must declare all of your tips. The "20% rule" and things like it that suggest that you only have to declare some portion are just rumor.
As Jay said, both the e…
