Greetings from Mount Olive, NC Peter. I have been enjoying Toscano lately, and I do mean enjoy. Konrad invited me to the educational seminar you were having a couple weeks ago and I regrettably had to cancel the day before. The wife and I were really looking forward to the day with Peter G.
Dude~ You gotta give us the heads up next time you drop by... Well, you don't have to. I prefer to lay low when I'm in a new shop, but it would have been good to chat and whatnot...
I`m an argentinean barista working in a new venture to promote the consumption of specialty grade coffees and the barista profession. I`m trying to collect as many opinions about it (from industry related people) before I start promoting it. I would be very grateful if you could tell me your opinion about it. If possible, please let me know where to send you an email.
One day, I was wondering, "What would Peter G be like, if there was no coffee, no food, no accordion, no surfing, no Vespas, no nothing? What if he wasn't the bad-ass fount of knowledge that we know him to be? What if he had no real point to anything that he was saying? What would he be like?"
I volunteered during SCAA for an Espresso Lab that you intstructed. I wanted to say "Thank You" because I really learned alot. The company I work for was exhibiting, and we are a Wi-Fi service provider. Although our main focus is coffee shops, I don't see much on that side. I also volunteered for the Barista Compition during the finals, and that was awesome! I'm kind of ashamed to say I really never paid much attention to what else was going on, but I do now!
hola peter! it was great to have met you at the intro al espresso this year in mn. thought i'd look you up and say hi, as i've recently become a member on this very cool site. thanks again for sharing your knowledge as an industry vet; you're an inspiration and definitely one to watch. un saludo, teresa pilarz
Hey Peter,
Thanks for the note in my last shipment. The wife has confiscated the postcard/note and it will be integrated into our "label mural" which has a label or postcard for everything we have tried in the coffee world! The art is fantastic on some of these labels and postcards.
I just tried your Espresso LaForza that was shipped in. Normally I would let it sit for 7 days, but I don't think I will be here at that day! This is FANTASTIC. Toscano is my favorite all time espresso, but this really is a runner up or it may even be "tying the ball game up."
The last time I was in Durham you were in LA with some extended family. The wife and I need to go to some more labs and hopefully we can actually meet.
