    JC....your always invited! We're planning one for next Saturday. We're cupping at least two coffee's for sure.
  • DailyBuzz

    PT's from Topeka for espresso (Bella Vita) and usually a varietal or two. We also use Mysore Mystic from Josuma as one of the house coffees--this is a really distinctive coffee.
  • Holly Josey

    How nice of you. Looking forward to ABC. Hope it's all I'm anticipating. This is a great exchange site. It's fun to be "in the loop" even though I dont know a darn thing about coffee. :) Best,

    Waz Hapnin' J? I've had so much stuff going on, my heads gonna pop soon. I'm not even going to make it out to Minn. (sucks!) I'll send you good coffee vibes though. How's the prep going? I didn't get the results I was looking for with those original ideas. I plan on trying something else this week, if you still need it.

    Hey Jason,
    How's Van Go Coffee going? It's been a wet and cold winter in PDX, I think we could use a little of Tucson's weather right now.

  • Jared Mockli

    Congrats on the bookstore location! ABCs has been keeping me busy.. I just got back from an on-site training and store opening in Salisbury MD on Sunday. Are you going to head out to the SCAA this year?
  • Jared Mockli

    Things are going good with "the Lady" and I ... she is going to be at the SCAA for sure, so if you do make it there you should definitely stop by and say hi.
