Hi, I am Greta Avakyan, a Master student from KEDGE Business School in Marseille; France; doing a marketing research on the barista community as part of a class assignment. I am therefore looking for people that would be willing to answer a few questions;

Such as why you enjoy this community, or how and when you joined the community?

This would really help me out in my project:

Thank you for your help!

So I just sent you some great coffee in the mail. The costa rican was roasted for spro. The the shop here we are pulling everything on lm tripple baskets. We tried the CR yesterday at 198 and was lacking a lot. Today we are pulling it at 201 and it is amazing. We are updosing to aroun. 21 or 22 grams and 24- 25 seconds at about an ounce and a half. A lot of that is crema becuase we are pulling on bottomless pf. Good luck and enjoy! If you have any questions the number is on the bag.

Of course I don't mind, I intended for it to create conversation. Hopefully it will fuel discussion in some smaller cafes that may not even be aware that there is a difference between commodity and non-commodity coffee. I think the hardest part is creating these discussion without the pretension, but if we can create curiosity in the consumer then they will ask questions of us.
A side note, looking at your picture and reading that you were once with Alterra I'm going to have to say that we met once when I was in with Vick.
