Moving to Denver...
Hey guys! I am moving to Denver at the end of this month. I love Denver but I am not completely familiar with the city. I have been a barista in Kansas City for a total of about 5 years. Any suggestions on where to go to get a good cup o joe?
Thanks,
Tisha

Haven't logged in a while, but just a heads up on where to go. St. Mark's has tasty coffee, well sort of, but it's a great place to go for a social environment. Try City O' City, Pablo's, and Novo. They all roast locally, and the first two are in Capitol Hill. Novo is by the Art Museum, and is not as socially "hip" as the other two. Though Novo does have a Clover from whence I last went.

I just realized how old this post is but I'll throw my 2 cents in anyways, could be good reference for others.
I'll have to agree Chad on St. Mark's. It has a great people watching atmosphere, but the coffee is not nearly as good as you'll find at Pablo's (my favorite coffee house ever) or City O' City. I'll also add Dazbog to the list, and a few other cafe's which serve locally roasted coffee from Pablo's: Hooked on Colfax and the Park Hill Cafe.
Pablo's is on 6th and Washington, about 5 blocks East of Speer.
City O' City is on 13th and Sherman, very close to the Capitol.
Hooked on Colfax is on Colfax near Adams St., a block West of the Bluebird Theater (great music there btw).
Park Hill Cafe is East of City Park, I don't remember the exact cross streets.
Dazbog has a few locations, one of which is on 17th and Park Ave.
St. Marks is down the street from Dazbog on 17th.

The whole pre-infusion thing is a little bit overrated imho. For instance on an E61 machine, you've already got pre-infusion by design. You're really not accomplishing a whole lot more by adding to it. Take for example the majority of La Spaziale Vi…
As I understand it, the contemporary school of thought is of the mind that your best bet is to use unrested beans; however, this will only buy you a very small window, beyond the ±30 minutes alloted for the espresso ground coffee to degas, where qua…
We're moving our coffee operation into a much smaller space, and I'm considering pre-grinding a small amount of decaf at the beginning of the day (maybe using the Bunn drip grinder set on "espresso") and keeping it in a small Cambro container by the…
I actually meant to post the above reply ^^ in the discussion entitled "Best commercial espresso machine", but I suppose it could be relevant here as well.
Still getting used to this forum's layout! :p

There are a lot of shops and serious home baristas out there who'll have something like a Linea or GS3 mated with a Mazzer Major. Having had both a commercial flat burr grinder and now a conical one, I think the…
I like the idea of a hempuccino... doesn't have the buzz you're thinking of but somehow the vanilla hempmilk tastes great with sf gosh thats good chocolate powder and and bit of caramel sauce. Surprizing! It's the first coffee drink I've liked with…
no, we're using oregon chai. we used to use my chai before that...
Innovative or simple, all are welcome to advise, question and best of all create the beverages we all love to taste! Attach pictures and talk about your inspirations behind signature beverage building.
Awesome, this is all great feedback. I definitely dont mind paying a little extra for a reliable machine. After all i have no idea how to fix anything major that is wrong with it. Ive been useing a La Marzocco for the last 3 years, and its been pret…
