Hey Everyone..

Many of the Coffee Fest exhibitors have free (until Feb 15) admission coupons to Coffee Fest NYC. This year's NYC show is shaping up to be "hot", so spread the word...

For all of you who are following this thread.. I took Dr. Johns class on "Blending for Espresso" a couple of Coffee Fests back. I highly recommend this class. I can't say I am really good at blending for espresso because of the class but I CAN say I have a way better understanding of the factors that come into play and what to shoot for when blending. I would and will take this class again just to refresh and spend time with a master craftsman.

We have exhibited at all three Coffee Fest Shows a year for about 10 years. I also teach several classes on espresso at each Coffee Fest. I enjoy both the exhibiting and the teaching parts. It is a great way of paying back to the coffee community for all the learning I got when we started the business seventeen years ago.

Justin,

Joseph,
You should check out North West Roasters Group. We meet twice a year for education and socialization. It's a great group with alot of experienced professionals in it.

Coffee Fest really needs to happen two times a year. One for the timing of the USBC championship comp. and the other just for Industry displays and locals. I have had many in my shop ask if everyone is welcome. Coffee and the passion is for everyone and Seattle is a birthplace of sorts.

As a first-time Seattle visitor, I found Coffee Crawl online and booked it for Monday after the show. It was great and I highly recommend it for first-time Seattle goers and anyone else who wants some basics on the Seattle coffee story. 1.6 miles with 3 coffee tastes and 2 chocolate/sweet drink tastes for ~$20

CoffeeFest was great too. I went to the Chicago Fest as a first-timer. Was good to revisit some vendors and take even more classes this time around.

Might attend in NY in the spring too.

Hi Cherie,
I used to live in Seattle three years ago, and wouldn't mind giving you some pointers on where to go around town. I'll be there for te trade show, and probably for a competition, so keep in touch!

Hey everyone.
Looking forward to Coffee Fest Seattle. This will be my first time in Seattle and was wondering if anyone who knows the area would be willing to show a "tourist" around a little bit. At the vary least I would like to know a couple of people before I get there. Msg me, let me know.
Thanks!

Absolutely loved the coffeefest. First time for us. Learned a ton and look forward to going every year and having more of our employees attend too. It is inspiring!
