CoffeeGeek - The Latte Gambit (#)

  „Seattle pioneer Kent Bakke, who set up his first espresso cart in 1977 and is now president of Seattle-based Espresso Specialists Inc. , offers a similar explanation: "The weather in Seattle is conducive to drinking coffee, and we are blessed with good water, without which you can't brew good coffee. In addition, the strong Scandinavian heritage of coffee consumption helped create the coffee culture of Seattle and the Northwest. Being somewhat isolated from the other cultural parts of America, the Northwest developed its own roasting and brewing styles that melded the best of Italian and American tastes."“

Tea & Coffee 05/04 - Espresso Carts that Work for You

  „The quality and reliability of the cart structure is crucial to the cart’s longevity. Espresso carts are "mobile" by nature and often require moving. Even if your cart doesn’t move often, be warned that it will take a good deal of abuse. It will need to stand up to being tugged, scooted, bumped, rolled and leaned upon on a daily basis.“

Tea & Coffee 02/03 - Espressing Their Opinions: Choosing an Espresso Machine

  „You need service within an hour. If you’re down and if you are running an espresso cart and you can’t make espresso, you’ll lose hundreds of dollars a day.” In the seven years that Babcock has had this machine, he can’t remember a time that it has broken down. If it did break down, he said, “It’s just been one time when it was clogged or something.”“

  „In a perfect world, having a cart in front of their door would be optimum,. When I lived in Seattle, I did espresso machine repair for a few of the local Cafe's, in a couple that had decent espresso and cute barristas, I'd opt to just trade my services for free joe any time, so normally either just before I hit my car, or right afterwards, would drop by one to get my java instead of making it at home. Now a days, there are no places like that, I don't have to commute to work since my shop is also at my house and beans are free due to the fact my brother owns a roaster.“
