Hi Brady,

Thanks for the input. Yeah I felt kinda funky about leaving ourselves a rating of any kind let alone a 5 star one. And the explanation of our place was so lengthy because I was just cutting and pasting from another source. Ughh... anyway.. thank you. Thank you also for the kind words. We are pretty proud of our place but we are aiming very high so there is always room for improvement. If you are ever in the area we'd love to have you in.

Cheers,
Bruce

Hi Brady,

We've been a member of Barista Exchange since early on but quite honestly have not had time to be part of the community here much. So you have our humble apologies about what appeared to be just blatant self promotion. When I saw the "add Coffee House" button I thought it was just a way to add information about our establishment. I should have taken a closer look first.

Anyway, I actually appreciate you pointing out my ignorance and have removed the entry from the discussion board.

Kind regards,
Bruce

Hi Brady - Thought I'd officially say hi!

Brady,

I am thrilled by your comment on water temp. and how it affected your coffee in the press. This is not something I have thought about before but will now, because of you.

Thanks for your info and your passion.

Breakfast of champions! What no Lucky Charms?

Morning...What's in your cup?

Hi,...yes i have been MIA..i have secured a location. Now, you shall see or shall i say hear from me...any recommendations are accepted and appreciated

Yes, I've been a CAD for almost two years a guess. I was very active, but not so much anymore. Just too busy.

I'm glad you enjoyed it. I hope to see you at a cupping before I move.

Hey Brady,

You should check out charlotteareadads.com I think you would like it a lot, i am a member and its a lot of fun.

Hey I won't bite...hard...at first.

I know I just sound negative all the time. But, I do find jewels out there, too. That guy at Mt Victory really has something special. Is it fantastic? No, but he is making every effort and is willing to learn. Enough said, right there.

DANG IT MAN! I just went to your site and saw pics. Look, I hope your coffee is as good as your atmosphere. That is some smack'n atmosphere. OMG, is your coffee that good? Are you going to pull me a raw shot, Brady?

Hey Brady, long time no talk.

Brady, it truly is out of hand. People are absolutely nuts about their concepts of quality coffee. The wife had a friend at church call her the other night and ask what could be found on the grocer's shelf that was mild and medium roasted. She replied, "Nothing" and proceeded to give her Counter Culture's web addy. $B has really educated some folks, haven't they?

I bet we could have a barista jam one day and we could play the sax in a sax duet :) LOL

I played the tenor in junior and high school and was 1st chair N.C State. Really enjoyed it. My church has an orchestra but I am just so rusty it is crazy.

Thanks for the comment on my afternoon drink... that one is if I crave something foofy after my third americano... I must have missed when you responded. Your shop looks beautiful! So does the Latte Art!

Brady, maybe it's about time we combined our musical skills together in one last and final attempt to destroy this world...or its ears. Let me know when you're feeling up to it.

Brady, thanks for the kind words. In looking at the photos of your patio, I'd recommend some potted sago palms as well as a trellis with some bougenvelia

HI Thanks for checking in. I had to take a moment. It came to light my broker was not doing much of anything withme finding a locaiton. I realized i had to perform this search myself. I saw a place yesterday but wanted to get some feeback from local owners.

thanks for your input! sorry the "barrel role" isn't working out for you...

I keep forgetting to tell you; you have my vote for the best coffee in Charlotte! I would stop by more often but you are not open at 5:30 am when I am usually passing through.
