This week is a bit of a ramble and catch up on what we've all been working on. Some reflection on roast profiles and how they have changed ....or not. Joe had his fire extinguisher out on Wednesday to prevent a spot fire turning into a blaze, Nico's been working hard on payment systems and ways to improve them and reduce financial stress for everyone. All are important aspects of the coffee business that have to be treated with equal importance. We've had a huge week of roasting and dispatch in preparation of upcoming holiday period. Thank you to all our wholesale customers for order an extra few days of coffee. This will save your bacon if the couriers are too busy delivering melted easter eggs and your coffee doesn't arrive until after the long weekend. MICE is on and their is certainly a buzz of energy surrounding it. It seems like there is a lot of great events on around but we are staying put in sunny Byron Bay as we came to the conclusion that the best thing about these shows is drinking coffee at all the great cafe's and how the cities turn it on for the influx of industry and coffee lovers in town. As always we finish with the menu and some discussion of new coffees, memorable coffees and coffees of the future.MentionsIf you are thinking of heading to MICE this weekend, don't let us deter you! Lots of new equipment, barista comps and coffee to taste!Here's some more info on the event - http://internationalcoffeeexpo.com/MentionsCavalier - https://www.instagram.com/cavalierespresso/Barefoot - https://www.instagram.com/barefootcoffeetraders/Nostalgic - https://www.instagram.com/nostalgicbarberandespresso/Bayleaf - https://www.instagram.com/bayleafcafe/The kiosk -https://www.instagram.com/thekiosk.newcastlebeach/
