Erica's Wild Coffee Tangent

I used to listen to the Coffee Geek podcast all the time.

There is an art to being a barista..lost at starbucks.
They opened another one recently...now 3 on 17th street...and the kids are nothing more than cafe cashiers it seems. Even the espresso has it's own spout on the machine..no longer have to tamp it out, etc...

Sigh... I do miss a good cup of Jamacian Blue Mountain, or a zinging Sumatra...
