Kiwis are an inventive and adventerous bunch. A small country of 4 million, perched on the edge of the Pacific Basin, we like to think of ourselves as contributing above our body weight. A NZ'er was the first to split the Atom (Rutherford), climb Everest (Hillary), win the Rugby World cup- and more recently invent flat-whites and the Pavalova.
Kiwis are also found in great abundance outside of their cosy, clean green natural habitat. There are around 30,000 in London alone, and they make up a good proportion of coffee professionals in small Australian cities such as Sydney and Melbourne.
This group is for Kiwis everywhere and anywhere to talk coffee and to network.

Comment by Eddie on February 22, 2009 at 1:10am - Hi Alun; would be good to meet up with you in person when you're in Welly; I know there's something I would like from Indo', but what exactly I'm not sure - maybe something from Bandung that might reflect the time in which my Dad lived there (1921-1946)?? Any thoughts?

- NZ Bound: heading down to Auckland and Wellington next week. Will be 5-6 days in the City of Sials before heading down to Welly. Anyone keen to meet up? Coffee? Beer?... any requests for anything from Indo?

- Hey Eddie, will probably be after Christmas now. I blew almost all my $$ on Euro when I was there. Tragic. Hoping December will be good to us so we can head down tentatively end of January. Will be to Welly as thats where the olds are. Can pop over the hill for a day trip, maybe stay the night. Want anything from Bandung?

- Just got back from Trieste- looked at Lever machines in Southern italy. Now... can anyone give me any idea what is happening in NZ retail wise?? I have seen some cafe businesses for sale at prices that are crazy. These are businesses with solid revenue numbers....

And then there were three!
Hey Paul, I'm getting there slowly. It's a bit hard to stop playing with my wee man (now 7 months) and get a into g! I'm still working for my old Roastery in the UK adapting a Barista Training Program I designed so at least I've still got my nose in the grinds...so to speak!
Really dying to get down to Wellington and get a feel for things down there. It's where coffees at right! x

Selina, Thanks for the great Americano yesterday! I really loved your shop and what you guys were doing. Hope you enjoy the sauces and let me know how they go with yourself and some of you're customers.
Mark, I strongly agree with David on the LaSpaziale S5. We have been selling the LaSpaziale brand for over 5 years now with over 50 units placed and I can count the number of service calls on one hand. These units are hand crafted to order, use a ...
