    "Couldn't believe it could taste like that." Lol, I love hearing these stories. Must've been a lonely world back then having made this discovery and be among the only ones to know what coffee could be.
    I remember making a coffee from my first bag of specialty coffee and thinking I did something wrong because it was tart. Went online and people suggested it was correct and should be fruity based on the coffee it was. I made it again, but this time ignored my preconceptions of what coffee was supposed to taste like (bitter and roasty), and it freaking blew my mind. HOW DOES THIS TASTE LIKE STRAIGHT UP CRANBERRY JUICE?!

    Man, this is really poignant. Thank you so much for sharing! I have a drastic career/life change coming up in a year that I'm excited and nervous about at the same time. This really resonates right now. I can't wait to hear part two of your journey. Thanks for super twisting back our wigs with all your wisdom!

    That was awesome!! Especially for me as I was in SF during those years and went to those places - but my eyes weren't open like yours and it took me a much longer time to appreciate the special things that were going on.

    I am just seeing this. You are one of those people that would just blow my mind, like fr. Definitely you'd be the person I'd look up to if we were related haha cause such great stories and the way you tell them with such passion and consciousness and admiration and gratitude of what you have gone through, like man... I would be deeply influenced by your company. Thanks for doing this video and I hope I get to meet you someday 🙂 love from Argentina!

    I like your storry, I also began skating first and then I got into coffee because I just wanted to make better coffee.
    I'd like seeing you talking about all kind of stuff while doing a board-setup and talk about it too. I know, that's a format that got copied by many, but it's really relaxing watching this kind of videos because each person is individual and also skate an individual setup.

    This is definitely history to me, I'm a budding home barista - some of the brands and names you mentioned are big in the coffee industry and the fact that you encountered them and shared that experience when they were small is absolutely fascinating. Best wishes to your endeavors for the future!

    The modern third wave/espresso bar movement is really young! I remember when Folgers and Maxwell House was all you could get! Cappuccinos were horribly done at fancy restaurants and we're bubbly messes.
    Cup A Joe and Joe Van Gogh in Raleigh and Durham have been around since 1991. A few other places opened up that year too. It was the beginning of a movement around here

    Remember General Foods International Coffees - if you grew up anywhere near the 1980s you probably experienced this "coffee drink". That was my first taste at cappuccino, no wonder it took me a long time to actually get into real coffee!

  • @alexrobin9975

    Hey Chris, Alex from Auburn Alabama here. I appreciate your videos, they are very helpful and encouraging. I am passionate about coffee and serving people and bringing community together through coffee. I wanted to ask a question not exactly relevant to this video, but it's about espresso and dark roasted coffee. If you have a coffee that you think is "over roasted", will paying attention to your specs like dose input, tamp pressure, coffee output, etc. not be in vain because of the over-roastedness of your coffee? Will you still be able to distinguish under/over extraction? Do you like dark roasts on espresso? Thanks Chris!

  • @josephbohme7917
    @josephbohme7917 5 лет назад +1

    Sorry Chris, Ritual was no early sailor, North Beach , Sunset, Downtown, had action since the 50's, and the Caffe Trieste has always been in the game. Graffeo on Columbus in SF began 1935 established; Italians roasting small batches of arabica against the likes of MJB, Folgers, Hills Brothers, & Nestle easily past 1960. There may by that time be the early Gaggia & Faema machines being pulled. Decade later in 70's when i graduate coffee is on everyones tongue, but espresso is not. An early robusto shot may not have been a hit or even an arabica, but consider they were all dragging unfiltered Camels along with those shots, so it had to have some bite. Even House of Coffee on Irving Street was well established in 1970's before itS '83 NAME change Henry's House of Coffee. Armenians well versed before their purchase. East Bay's Peet's, Royal Coffee (1978), & Sweet Maria's influence, they could tell you who we're pulling shots, and several others in Oakland Berkeley Piedmont etc., where I was going before Starbucks ever arrived. But the credit for Espresso begins well before you were born, and way earlier than 2002. Nothing is new it is just remarketed. Coffee Tea Beer & Wine,,, Romans lend me your tiers. Who is better best, Pay a little earlier homage. Florence & Venice- I think we can all assume, had the early, and better at the time baristas active in 1950-60. So the industry is not new it is changed. As those last century sippers are in the ground (grounds) now. May they RIP.

    Once you start, you just can't forget that first out of this world cup,and you keep your time chasing that sensation again. It is like a drug addiction. People looks at you like you are crazy for spending thtat much time working in a cup of coffee.
