Just curious: Does anyone do cuppings in Columbus, OH? I was just browsing the Stumptown website and salivating over their cupping room... apparently they have daily cuppings. I've never done this, formally, and I'd like to learn about it. And now that new coffees are starting to come in, it'd be great to get together once in a while to try a few of the new beans out there. Unfortunately, I'm not in the industry -- I'm just a home roaster and coffee enthusiast -- so I wouldn't necessarily have heard about anything like this, and I'm not in a position to start it if it doesn't exist already. (sigh)

stop in and see me. We set up cuppings quite frequently and we love consumers/enthusiasts/professionals to join in the fun. We can also chat about roasting.

Hi Kevin, and thanks, I will! I should have by now, frankly -- a friend (Haley B.) keeps raving about you guys and your coffee. But I've had the bad luck to come by mostly when you're closed (I'm a night owl / weekend kind of guy), and as much as I hate to admit it given how much I complain that people in Columbus don't leave their own neighborhoods as much as they should, I just don't make it downtown that much, even though I live in Victorian Village. :-/ But I'll definitely be in to talk shop. What times are good?
