Profile Information

What is your position in the coffee industry?
barista, manager
Where are you located? ( City and Country )
Kansas City, Mo
How many years have you been in the industry?
Since 2003
If you are a barista or shop, are you interested in a barista exchange with another coffee shop/barista?
yes
Tell us more about your coffee shop or barista skills.
I was in the restaurant business 17 years before being liberated into the coffee world. I believe quality, and consistency of quality with speed are my strong suites. When doing pastries I have been accused of making stuff so consistent that it looks commercially made. Having been thrown on "the line" to cook for a night with no more training than reading the menu and being shown where things are, I believe this shows my adaptability.
What cities or countries are you interested in traveling to?
I am open to all. I would like to travel back to Norway having spent a summer in Bodo, but any city in or out of the United States is fine with me.
About Me:
Happy to be in the community of the the coffee world. I took my first job in coffee to get out of restaurants and quickly realized I loved it so much more I have worked to stay in the industry ever since. I seem to have fallen into the ability to do multiple pours on one drink, loving the reactions of customers when I ask if I can take a picture of their drink.

When I am not making or reading about coffee, I love watching Sci-Fi, reading techno-thrillers, cooking, playing violin or trumpet and running sound whenever I can.
About My Company:
Currently between companies
What is your favorite thing about the coffee industry?
COMMUNITY!!!

How to Affect the Taste of an Espresso



As I’m coming up on getting into more training, I’ve been thinking a lot about the different ways a barista can affect the taste of a shot.



For the time being I’m going to leave out the temperature and pressure adjustments as I don’t have the privilege of working on a machine with those controls. For now my thinking revolves around: Grind, Dose, Tamp & Brew Time.



For a cafe setting I am going with the argument there is… Continue
