Send Ben to World Cup Tasters Championship in Cologne, Germany!

Calling all BARISTAS! Ben Kaminsky was a last minute entry in the US Cup Tasters Championship in Atlanta last month. In a tight, multiple heat elimination process Ben was narrowed down to three finalists Andy (with the unique slurp technique), Geoff Watts (Intelligensia, green buyer) and Ben Kaminsky (Boy Wonder). In this fast paced competition we as cuppers were put to the ultimate test in an 8 Group Triangulation. Triangulation is set up to test the accuracy of your senses with the added element of speed. Tasters are given three cups, triangles. Within the three two are identical, one is different. Fun Stuff! Three-person qualifying heats, scoring kept in real time with scores displayed immediately for spectators and competitors to view. The competitor with the most correct answers and the best time move on to elimination rounds.
...Ben WON! Unexpectedly and now needs help funding a trip to Germany for the WCTC. Here's how you can help.

If you are local: I am hosting a SEND BEN, Barista Car Wash in Seattle at a local cafe Saturday, May 23 from 1-4PM:
Moka's

Bring your car, your bike or your bus pass, in a ziploc...whatever you got we can make it cleaner! Make a donation in any amount.

If you are not local but want to be a sponsor we are excepting donations for Ben. $20, $50, $100 or anything in-between. Send donations to or call in:

It would be really fun to come together and get Ben over their to represent! He roughly needs $3G's and I think we can all do it.
