    So I walk into Ritual and there is Drew wearing a Bevalo shirt...a KICK ASS! Bevalo shirt. It was awesome seeing you at Western Reginals, but how do I not get hooked up with one of these shirts? haha :)

    Hey,

    Are you aware of any brewing coffee classes within the slc? I just moved down here from the Seattle area and I'm looking to kill time learning how to brew.

    Let me know...

    Jon.......... so tell me some gud nuz! How's biz? I called Barefoot to find out if they had any espresso blends in green that they would sell for home use. I haven't heard back yet. I'm not expecting that many roasters would, but it is another possible profit center. The art of blending is as valuable as the art of roasting, and I was thinking that a roaster could put together some "generic" espresso blend, if that's even possible. The other side of all this is that a good roaster doesn't want to offer anything but the best, lest someone taste their blend after a home roaster "goofed it up"....... so to speak. Anyway, howz biz? And how is your better half? Getting any more "commercial accounts?"

    Jon...... it's been stressful, but I guess better that than no action? I really want to return to SLC soon, and may do it just to escape SoCal. At CoffeeFest LV, I saw, (and drooled), over Dr. John's Malabar Gold booth "and" his GB5 2 group! As I remember, you scored a major deal on one of those? Anyway, I need to get back to a 58mm triple basket. Ever since experiencing your "in-house baked scones", I've been recommending and searching out other in-store baked items. At CFest there actually was a small "automatic pancake" machine! I saw some opportunity there, as you can fill the cakes with just about anything! And it looks very quick and economical. (regular and buckwheat flours are available.) See www.chefstack.com
