My cups are stuck in a DHL warehouse in Cork. Other than that, everything is coming along swimmingly.
Yesterday I spent a cold afternoon by the roasters with Michael (Kaos!) and had my first spin on the sample roaster. The idea was to see if there was anything delicious I could hunt out for a competition coffee. Not only did I find some wonderful morsels, I also discovered a little thing called a “coffee thief”. Oh, what a find.
Too bad that I got to the shop fifteen minutes late this morning and missed the cupping with the dudes. Bummer. Tomorrow morning at 6:30am it is!
