So it is Barista competition time again. Now is your chance to come have a great espresso time. We are holding an instore competition on January 30th to decide the two best Barefoot Baristas who will represent Team Barefoot at the Western regional Barista Competition in march in Sonoma.
So EVERY Sunday and monday night in January we will be closing at 8:00 pm and holding practice sessions from 8:00 pm till 10:00 pm. All are welcome to come and cheer the espresso on. All of the Barefoot coffee roadies will be competing in the in store competition.
We also need some judges to help judge the drinks so if you want to be a judge let us know. If you want to be a judge then study the judging form before coming so you are familiar with it. here: http://www.scaa.org/about_regional_next.asp download the technical and sensory judging sheets.
We will NOT be serving any drinks but there will be plenty of mistakes and practice drinks to be had.
So come on down and party like a coffee roadie!!
