Hey man, how is Charlotte? Sounds like you've been a busy man, with all that training committee stuff and SW chapter rep, oh, and your job too. It's been a busy, busy time for me. Let me know whats going on.
Good to know you've got a great foundation! BTW, love your license plate!
Your profile sounds full of experience. Since I am new to roasting, I'd like to pick your brain from time to time.
I've opened a coffeehouse with a 5K in-store roaster. I'm probably spending too much time on research for crop reports. Not sure if I'm spending too much money for cup of excellence beans. I'm trying to work out an espresso blend profile that stays consistant. Help me!
Not Exactly, Folkston has a small shop that does sell coffee, I personally roast beans for a few shops as well as individuals, I do plan on opening a Internet cafe here in folkston, I just recently moved back from StoneMountain. Thanks I will keep you posted on my progress~
I would love to talk to you about starting a coffee shop somewhere... A couple friends (who are also Baristas) want to start a shop in England... But would love to help run one first in the states, then go... let me know!
We owned a Christian Bookstore for years (thats where we originally also opened or Coffee Shop) So I've met them many times over the years of doing conventions & things like that. Fun guys. Great music. I remember when I first found their CD before they ever got big. Got it from a friend at Provident Music. We sold them like crazy when they first came out.
Actually only been there a couple of times. I have 2 drive thru shops that occupy the majority of my time, so when I do have time off I generally skip coffee shops.

I won't be in Atlanta unfortunately. I have a class this weekend that I could not change.
Adding you as a friend ...
