Tell us more about your coffee shop or barista skills.

In the process of opening a new shop and a small scale coffee/espresso repair/restore business. Been in the industry since 1990. Thought it was time to strike out on my own.

About Me:

I have worked in many different areas of the coffee industry, from corporate giants to local roasters with a Probat in the corner of the cafe. I've managed a distribution warehouse, been a delivery driver, was a cafe assistant manager, barista, field service technician, national service manager, restoration technician and a quality assurance representative for regional accounts. (Not in that order) The only things I haven't done are source/buy green and roast.

About My Company:

My company is Best Expert Espresso Repair. I can fix anything from super-autos to super-manuals. As well as, brewers, water towers, and grinders. I'm looking to build a nice little word of mouth business in the Seattle area. Feel free to PM me if you have any questions.

What is your favorite thing about the coffee industry?

The people. And coffee.
