There are many great espresso slingers around the Southeast U.S., and this group's in honor and celebration of them. Also, although not as famous, there are lots of great baristas showing the country that we got skills, too. We are also educating our area what good coffee is. Whether it's Java Jaay's Coffee in Decatur, AL, Octane Coffee in Atlanta, or Dilworth Coffee in Charlotte, the art and scene are being improved upon everyday!

I am curious about your menu and whether you have tried to incorporate lunch type foods as part of your offerings. We are exploring the possibilty of a wine bar and with that we would like to expand our food offerings to some non-sweet items.

I personally use Big Train Spiced Chai at my shop and people love it. It is a powder. We mix it with milk and it's really delicious. If you are at all in or around the Bellingham/ Seattle area, my most favorite chai is Harmony Chai brewed by Holly D…
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...
