My favorite part of your vlogs are continually the last 2 minutes where you share thoughts/recaps. Love it! Hope to visit your space one of these years.
totally killing it and love the beliefs you have in coffee. Tampa coffee scene is becoming more and more price competitive and as an owner, roaster and Barista, I have always embedded this into anyone we hire. If you don't love what you do then your just another company. I type this as I'm watching and dialing in for the day :)
What City do you live in/ Spend most of your coffee drinking time in? There are some great spots in Redwood city, Palo Alto, and maybe one or two near Los Gatos, Then San Jose has a few, too. Let me know, and I can get more specific.
Such great vibes in this video - you really get a sense of how important your business relationships are to you guys which I definitely believe in too.
quick question. what grinder would you suggest to pair with a GS3? It's for a small cafe we're putting up. Not really expecting huge crowds so a GS3 is suffice. Been looking at the Lyn Weber EG-1 but can't seem to find a whole lot of reviews out there. And it's a bit pricey. BUT if it does do consistent grind size with minimal burr retention we might pull the plug on it. thanks and AWESOME VIDEO as usual. Cheers
Good point. We do have the EK at our other cafe. But we mainly use it for our pour overs. Our other cafe has a larger crowd so the EK43 makes sense. Our new shop will mainly be a pop up so space is limited. But yeah the PEAK is a good option :-)
I'm also a fan of the K30 twin. If your doing low low volume and really don't have a lot of space, the Lyn Weber EG-1 would be a good option. It seems at this point in its production history, it's too soon to say how well it holds up in a commercial environment, and how effective it is at working in higher volume cafes. But from my research--albeit limited--the EG-1 seems like a really great step in the right direction for what I want to see in Grinder Engineering: Reduced waste, variable speed, magnetic components. My biggest qualm is the hopper (or lack their of). By not having a hopper you have to manually dose each shot. Making your Labor and amount of time spent on a single shot go up, which could negatively impact your customers wait time and experience. But with the ease of cleaning it would reduce the amount of time spent on preventative maintenance on the back-end. On a really low-end, low volume side: Baratza has some "Espresso Grinders" that will get the job done and not cost much:)
you're exactly on point. our concern as well is the lack of a hopper. although we're probably looking at about 50 to 60 shots per day so I'm assuming it'll be fine. one more thing is the company is relatively new so after sales support might be an issue. but then again i'm hearing a lot of positive feedbacks on the grinder. thank you very much for sharing your thoughts. greatly appreciated.

Just left San Diego from camp Pendleton. Had to try Birdrock before I left and I had to say I was pleasantly surprised
Thanks for sharing your thoughts about wholesale!
For sure!
Awesome epilogue!
Thanks!
consistently inspiring!! ✌
Thanks Antonis!
Man this better when the sprudgie next year. Solid gold
Thanks! That would be rad!
That french press at 7:00 is an American Press. I've been curious about them, would love for you to play around with it and do a review of it!
Gonna put it through it's paces
Good values man. Was that an American press, what's your thoughts and maybe a 1 minutes tutorial would be sweet, really enjoy your vids.
This is awesome bro
Ooh an American Press. Been thinking about getting one for awhile. Looking forward to a review ;)
Is that what that is? Down.
Hey Chris, love the videos. Any recommendations for shops in the SF South Bay area?

Hey Ian. I'm currently in Campbell. Thanks for the help :)
I'd hit up Voyager Craft Coffee, Barefoot, and Chromatic, too.
What Ian said plus Bellano, maybe Red Berry. Manressa Bread would be a fun pastry + coffee visit in Los Gatos
Love those cups, where can I get some?
3:36 Bringing ristrettos back? :P
