Yah, the tamp at work pretty much blows, or so I've been told. I want a nice one, with a thinner base and (surprise) a bright green handle. But two things:
1. I'm completely and devastatingly broke.
2. If I rolled into work with my own tamp I would look like a total asshole. Especially if it was accompanied by a set of smaller pitchers, which, even before Jeff stated so, I realized we desperately need.
Hey dude,
Gotta love the 'tat, baby! As far as guest barista-ing goes, you'd have to talk to the Big Kat about that, but if its around the time that we're opening the second location... then possible. I can hook you up with his email if you want.

Hmm. Exchange you say? We are getting a clover tomorrow, and an M3 as soon as its built, and the Diedrich June 30. So much happening here... Need.. more... Baristas!
Me you and Matt go to Canada, what do you say?.... It has to be on a Monday or Tuesday, so we can see the roasting and wreak havoc. You in?... Maybe one more barista...
For future reference- where should I send samples of my soon-to-be roasting commercially super double extra awesome (after much testing) espresso?
How are things in Seattle?
I'm afraid I can't do much in the way of an exchange.
I don't work for a shop. I'm a free-lance consultant, trainer, blogger, reviewer, local events organizer/community builder, and bX admin.
As much as I would love to..
If you want to do a gig in Austin, talk to Caffé Medici. It's THE shop in Austin, and they have a new location opening in 2 days that gets over 100 pedestrians in front of it every 2 hours. It's insane.
What makes you think that I don't like Kenyas? Or are you associating all Kenyas with key lime? If so, I challenge you to a knife fight. Don't be blasphemin'!

By the way, Sarah's mom really loved the coffee they bought her.
