- Tell us more about your coffee shop or barista skills.
- I've been a home barista for a while now, and started as a home roaster. We are now roasting for a tea house in downtown-ish Lansing and retailing there as well. Also have quite a few word-of-mouth customers that buy on a weekly basis. We have plans for a new coffee shop in the area in the works. I can offer some space to jam (most likely), but don't have any commercial machines at the moment.
- What cities or countries are you interested in traveling to?
- All of them
- About Me:
- Home Barista and Home Roaster turned Retail Roaster. I have a Silvia, Macap M4 doserless stepless, and a Reg Barber rosewood. Also have a couple of presses, a Chemex, a Beehouse pourover, and a Bodum Kona. I recently moved to Mid Michigan and have been thinking of opening a coffee shop because of the plethora of terrible coffee in the area.
- About My Company:
- Right now, it's a couple of guys roasting for a local tea house / restaurant. We are also retailing out of her shop. She has given us free reign to take over some counter space and offer more of a coffee shop like menu, so we'll look into that. Eventually the goal is to have our own roasting/retailing shop in the near future.
- What is your favorite thing about the coffee industry?
- The coffee
