Hey! Things are good, business as usual. Today was crazy, but awesome givin out free drinks and pulling the finca 408, ghimbi and el eden all day for the anniversary party. I'm working part time doing barista trainings at the works which is dope...always learning. Anyway, how are things up in Sac? How was Seattle?
Thanks yo! I too hope we get to chill sometime. I'm thinkin' about doing the Vegas Coffee Fest. I don't know if that is too far from where you are, but I'll let you know. Talk to you soon homie!

Ben seems to be the one true coffee man. His ideas are just, his science is tight and his art is right.

thanks for your input on " stepping outside the bucks" would love to stop in sometime. sounds like my kinda shop.
Tuesday. Tuesday is the day I'll be at Temple. I have a whole bunch of coffee if you want to do a cupping. Bunch of coffees from 49th, a Stumptown and also a Victrola. damn tasty.
Hey! What's your schedule at Temple like? I'll be NorCal on Friday. I'll be hittin' up Ritual, Barefoot, Temple and Verve. Let me know what's going down...
It looks like I'm going to still be in Seattle during Coffeefest so my hours won't be available, but I really don't know anything about the scheduling. I just open five days a week and don't worry about anything else. You ought to contact him yourself.
Do you think a cycling cafe crawl turning to a cycling pub crawl is a good idea? I wish I still had a bike someone could borrow, but my fixie got swiped at a party not long ago.
Does he have your number? I'm txting him as we speak to get off his lazy ass to hit you up. Don't fuss it -- it's not like you have any other way of getting to me in off hours :-)
Also, with regards to crossing you, I'll do it when I damn well please. 'Cause when I get my flame on, you gonna get buuurrrned.
