CoffeeGeek - Setting the Scene for Coffee in Asia (#)
„When I first got in contact with Mark about doing something for Coffeegeek he was immediately enthusiastic about getting a more global perspective about the gourmet coffee market. Most people probably think that outside the US and Europe, the closest Asia has come to coffee is that we produce some fine coffee in Sumatra and India and we produce some lower grade coffee from Vietnam primarily used as fillers by the large companies. And of course we have the eccentric Japanese that buy up almost the entire stock of Jamaican Blue Mountain.“

„The poor Gourmet Espresso Tamper , which finished just about as low as it could possibly finish - every Baristi we polled ranked it last, except for one. Some questions have been raised in online forums and venues about the promotional material listed on the Gourmet Espresso Tamper's website, which claims several awards and notes of recognition for this tamper. Unfortunately, neither the CoffeeGeek website nor our assembled team of top flight Baristi and testers had anything good to say about it, except perhaps the tamper is a very early beginning - who knows if concave tamping will be good or not. Perhaps once this tamper is reshaped into something that professional Baristi can use (that is, a proper handle, getting rid of the faux diamond, and making it an accurate 58mm size), maybe the concave design will show us if it is capable of a more consistent tamp and shot production.“

„ “It seems as though all of our attendees and exhibitors were extremely pleased with the experience in Washington, DC. This is a clear indication that the specialty coffee and gourmet tea industries in the Eastern U.S. not only want, but will support a show annually,” he continued. “One can only wonder what our attendance would have been had eight inches of snow not blanketed the entire Northeast on Friday, the first day of the show.” “

„My initial reaction after flicking through both was that they were thin on content and fairly heavy on advertising. Having said that I will buy any issues I find in the future and am thinking about ordering the back issues of Crema. I think I'm just happy to find anything coffee related, and perhaps in 12 months if both magazines stagnate, I'll give them a miss.“
