Specialty coffee retailer, tea and coffee trade journal and roast are a couple others that I subscribe to. Also if you have not setup google
alerts you should give it a try. It just automatically sends an alert when a topic pos up on the internet.

Yup, like Mike, I read Specialty Coffee Retailer. I think it's a great magazine. I don't get Fresh Cup, I would but the subscriptions are just too much for what they offer. (That's just my opinion, I have enjoyed reading them when given the opportunity) I also read Barista Magazine, which is to me one of the best industry mags I have ever read.

I actually think I met the guys from specialty coffee retailer at coffeefest NY earlier this year...Mike you were there! I just went on their website and read their past couple of issues, great articles! Thanks Paul.

Just remembered. Coffee Talk is another one that I get. Keri from coffee talk has an online version of it as well as an email newsletter.

I think Roast is essential. It really has more content to it than any other magazine I can think of. BMag is great, but sometimes it's an awful lot like a who's who of a constant rotation of baristas at a similarly uniform rotation of different well known cafes. Just my opinion.
