Look out downtown Olympia, next weekend is Artswalk! My friend Jared is hosting a Latte Art throwdown at the Old Carnegie Library on Saturday night, and together we’ll be brewing coffee via the pour over method for all to enjoy.

I can’t wait to brew some delicious coffee for the folks of Olympia, it’s been way too long. I think I’ll even try my hand at the Latte Art competition. Hope to see you all there!

Seattle bound

I’m very much looking forward to a trip up to the big city tomorrow. First stop, Visions for some proper Hario filters. I’ve been experimenting with Chemex filters for the past week (thanks brother bear for hooking me up) with mixed results. This morning I actually made a cup of coffee that was pretty good, and definately better than the pour over I recieved at another coffee shop. Practice, practice. And I still need that kettle!

the Lab is up!

A peek at my kitchen setup. Or the Lab, as I prefer to call it.

It’s gotta be the…

Water, baby! I wonder what you’re doing for your water filteration, so let me know.

some equipment arrives!

A shout of thanks to EspressoParts NW for selling me some equipment! I got a couple of Hario V.2′s, a sweet Baratza Vario grinder, the Zojirushi 5.o L dispenser and a digital scale. So many cups of coffee have already been brewed, many more to come.

So far I’ve had a bag of Stumptowns’ Equador Quilanga Reserva. Delicious — although I still am getting the hang of the pour over — I need a kettle, for sure. Also bought a bag of their Ethiopia Michelle which will be the weekends work.

More (better) pictures coming soon.
