I purchased this machine for catering, but I've since gotten away from that. I catered four wedding receptions about two years ago and pulled about 2,000 shots on the machine. It's great for catering or as a powerful home machine. I would like to get $2,000 for the machine. I'll also include a FLOJET pump.

                      Second day of Coffee Fest in the bag! Last night was dinner with Greg, Jan and Chris from Fresh Cup - Manish from Maya tea was along as well.
Today was an interesting day - slightly slower but some good people came by! I'm looking forward to tomorrow and the "tracking sales with technology" seminar I'm doing.

When women in the community of Los Naranjos told me about their daily schedule, waking at 4 am and going to bed at 10 pm, I realized that my 7-hour trip down bumpy roads to arrive there couldn’t be compared to the challenges these women face every day.

                      here in Moncton it is raining outside with fog. Not a nice day but a great day for coffee.

                      It is a shame I am not currently in NZ and therefore missed the official day 1 of the Parnell Roastery. Amanda kept in touch with emails, Donna with some sms texts and emails. All the hardwork in getting the place up to scratch is behind us, all the hardwork to build a viable Indonesian Specialty Coffee roasting business- in front of us.
In many ways I am missing the cool, crisp Auckland days. The blue sky, the ferry from dwn to Devonport. The friendliness of our new neighbours…
