Re: Next BRISBANE get together - swap meet / roast off - Nov. 15th!
Many thanks to Julz and Dan for a very informative and enjoyable day. It was great to meet other coffee mad people and the conversations were great. I also love the coffee I bought there Dan, Im simply vibrating at the moment with over indulgence.
Thanks again

Re: Next BRISBANE get together - swap meet / roast off - Nov. 15th!
Pity I missed the day
But it sounds like good fun was had by all.
Looks lik ill have to keep an eye out for the next get together
One consolation though
Managed to get the family out to Veneziano at west end for a coffee.....although the wife was a little dubious about going out to the middle of nowhere just for coffee 
net result, shes a convert to the cold drip filtered coffee on a hot day.
mother in law thought the coffee was way too weak. But then again, Ive had her coffee this past week and its definitely a heart starter!
how often are these gatherings held? Or is it too early to enquire

And a very social snobbery session twas. Learning (always learning) different ways of drinking our favourite brew, putting faces and personalities to names, getting to know our fellow obsessives....just a great day.
Im sure it was said first time around, but massive thanks and appreciation to our hosts most gracious on their day off. Thanks Dan and Julz for your time,eh. And a pleasure to meet your lovely wife and young fella Julz.

Got some superb little cupping cups from yuens and printed out pretty coffee wheels flavour charts.

See you all tommorrow!

As a note to one and all... Cupping will be on but due to space and hardware may need to be done over two sessions and or a split show...
That is Cupping for one group and general chit chat and hardware banta and servicing by another... Side walk and or my place...
Just remember... Julzy has the job of cleaning up after all have left and to make sure teh shop is fit for normal business when next it is open...
Thus any disagreements, bodies, leftover children, mothers in laws and any broken equipment etc SHALL be sorted before all have left... Julzy is still trying to get rid of the extra two kids he picked up last time... ;D

Neville Newbie - who is looking forward to attending. Bringing EM6910 / EM450, plus a cheapie import Espresso I have used previously for 5 years which has now developed a boiler leak at fittings. Hope to find some new parts to allow me to repair it. Mechanic by trade and love to repair things of interest!

Whats a Mother in law... If she does not like coffee... Drag her along ;DOriginally posted by 4950555056250 link=1253365557/72#72 date=1258183049Darn,
New to forum and would have loved to attend.
But alas, mother in law visiting from Sydney and seeing as how I have pretty much avoided her this entire week due to work commitments, Im sure my wife is going to kill me if I dash off tomorrow for this
How often does Brissie hold a get together?
