Hi Claire. A female techie type. Do you know how rare that is. I hope you do have loads of questions for me. As for me - I work on La Marzocco, Dalla Corte & CMA. No favourite - although I am in the middle of renovating a 30 year old CMA lever machine. Must take some photos and send them on. Damo
We're planning our itinerary now and will be on both the north and south islands for about 2 1/2 weeks. What do you think are the do not miss spots to see or do things?
Hi Claire,
I'm headed to New Zealand in November and would love to tap in to your tips on what not to miss while visiting. I've added you as a friend so we can chat. Thanks!

thanks for getting back to me Claire! i will certainly try to use your expertise and familiarity in the coffee scene of New Zealand as i make plans for my trip there. the contact with someone there is incredibly helpful. thanks again. we'll hopefully be in touch.
hello claire. i will hopefully be travelling to New Zealand in January and living for up to a year and was interested in getting a job in a coffeeshop setting. i currently work as a barista in the US and would love to continue in the coffee industry for a while, especially while in New Zealand. Would you ever hire people from outside of New Zealand or do you know of other reputable coffee companies over there that would do a kind of exchange? if you have any feedback that would be wonderful. thanks a lot!
Hey Claire, thought I would say hi from not so far away Indonesia. How are things in Auckland? I am hoping to be back in Wellington over Christmas for a few weeks to catch up on family and all.
Speaking of geeking, we're playing around with espresso roasts of the components of the revelation blend to see what the differences in extraction and temperature thresholds are between the origins- it's exciting stuff Claire! Wish you were here to add your knowledge.
If I had the opportunity, I would love it! I would have to save up for a while to make the trip... I will definately keep this in the back of my mind! Thank you!
You will have to keep me updated on your process... Are you going to have a training center? Or work out of the espresso bars/ caffe's that you are hired from? So curious on how you are movin forward. YOU ROCK!

Hey Claire!
Hope you and the family are enjoying being back in NZ. AT the end of our 5-year plan we hope to move to NZ too so might be knocking on your door for a job again ;). Enjoying the photos of Gage on FB, especially when you dress him up - the Yankees outfit is the best!
Keep well.
