Martin,
I see you have Mike as a friend too. I have always considered him a mentor. Mike is one of the top espresso men in the business. He is very humble so he might not agree but next to his espresso knowledge is his coffee roasting skills. As often as I can I stop by his shop and try his espresso that he blends and roasts, just to test and compare to my espresso blends.
I love stopping by his shop to network and try drinks from his great baristas too.
Best wishes with your coffee business and pending SCAE.
Joseph
