Coffee Extravaganza
Guthers and I spent a few hours snobbing it up on Saturday arvo, working hard at our extractions and latte-art.
Shout out to Lovell Roasters for the kilo and a bit of 'Special Blend' they whipped up for us and for letting me see them in action last week.
Guthers was in fine form behind his Boticelli, although the little machine wasn't too happy at the end of three hours, struggling to keep the element hot. Here's some of his stuff:
I was super happy with the improvement in my extractions, but not totally content with my latte art. Will have to work a bit harder next time! Here's some of my work: 
If you'd be keen to join us next time let me know.

i could never pass up the opportunity to be in the presence of coffee heavyweights such as yourselves
nice rosetta...!
now I see the reason you were messing with photos in bib th. :-)
Hamish - you're always welcome - it's BYO machine. Will let you know when we're next on.
Reuben - Yeah I was putting it together in class today, but only during the question times!
Sweet. That crema looks awesome.
Definitely up for it next time - I don't care what I have to cancel!
tidy work. out of interest, do you drink all your practice ones? Either you must drink a LOT of coffee, or else sadly some good work is getting tipped down the drain..which is it?
Hey Ben,
We poured everything we made into a massive jug, then bottled it in the left over milk bottles at the end of the day, refrigerated it - and now we have iced coffee to last the week!
mate, that's awesome. Good thinking
i doubt my machine will last the distance
