The below link is from a guy in New York who (with 9 others) went cupping...
Great pictures and decriptions of the day.
I really enjoyed read/looking at these, I think you will too.

There are also a nice set of latte art pictures, big but good.

Agreed Andy. They were great too look at....would be nice if we had such events here.

Anyone a member of the AASCA? http://www.aasca.com/public/aasca.asp Maybe they hold these sort of events?

It really looked like a great experience, although maybe a little too highbrow for me at the moment. I think I need some more time to get up to speed with the terminology and art of tasting.

Currently I grade coffee on a scale of 1 to 5 with….

“oooh that’s great”
“ahhhh…. Nice”
“err… different!”
“hmmm… I don’t think much of that one”
and
"you dont roast your own? Ill have Tea thanks"

With some practice I may become more scientific and be able to extrapolate some more meaningful words around what my tastebuds are feeling.

;D

Andy its not "you dont roast your own? Ill have Tea thanks"
It should be
"You dont roast your own?, I have my green beans and heat gun, gotta powerpoint available, oh and BTW wheres the dog bowl? "

Well it kind of sounds good to me at least....lol
