We just finished May's Informal Barista Jam, and after another successful jam, it's planning time for next month's. Next month's jam will feature the same format. First 15 minutes we go over something practical, this month will be tamping quality. The "Iron Chef" style competition that was so cool last night is going to feature the theme "Spice," and should be really cool again. Remember, you can bring two ingredients you think may help you with a drink using that theme. And as always, after the competition, we will break out and jam on the machines, learning latte art and tweaking the basics. You don't want to miss it! It is always held at the Dilworth Coffee Roastery, 2400 Distribution St. Charlotte, NC. Contact me for more info.
