        What a fantastic way to learn about the wonderful world of coffees with a hook up of like mined C.S. folks. Motocoffee and his wonderful family based in Wagga have kindly opened their home as a meeting base for Riverina C.Ss this year. We have had a ball. Much is said about roasters on the C.S. website. Well we were able to watch a Gene, A Hottop and a KKTO in action at our first meet for the year. That was a great session. We exchanged the beans we had roasted and so advanced our pallets to even more flavours of coffee. At the second meet we continued on with learning more about each others coffee gear. The Aeropess was examined. An upside down brew or right way up. Cupping was done. It was also fantastic to listen to motocoffee as he told us aboout the folks he meets and serves coffee to on his daily rounds. We tasted Chai Lattes which some of his customers choose. Motocoffee has a very learned understudy in things coffee already and he helped push buttons on the coffee machine as we drank our way to heaven with cups of coffee from our bean pool.

          Riverina & Border Snobs Unite!!!

          Time to start planning the next meeting of the minds, October is out for me due to work commitments but I thought we best start planning for November as calendars fill up pretty quickly at that time of year.

          We would love to see some snobs from Albury etc (you know you want to come) there is plenty room and more than enough coffee stuff to play with.

          PM me with some dates (some are blocked out already due to work arrrh!!!) and we can start planning.

          Any ideas for a "theme" or otherwise will be greatly appreciated, I have some ideas but I would love to hear from others.

          Look forward to hearing from you

          Cheers

          Brett

          BTW as per usual the venue is my place in Wagga Wagga!!

                  Ok time to lock it in Sunday the 14th is the day and I think 10am start will work for most.

                  Still working on a theme but I would love to play around with non espresso based coffee for the day. I am going to roast up some interesting coffees that I have in my stash and I hope to taste some yummy coffees people want to bring along.

                  Look forward to seeing you there.

                  PM me for an address.

                  Cheers

                    In case anyone is wondering about bringing rug rats (aka kids) it will be fine, there is a big backyard to play in and there could be about 4-6 coming along already so the more the merrier.

                          Ok one week to go, have some good numbers to start with can everyone coming PM me so I can organise food for lunch.

                          At the moment we have a good range of coffees to try a technovorm for cupping, a cold drip coffee maker and plenty of other things to try. It should be a good one I cant wait.

                            Sorry to report that due to illness and double bookings numbers were well down for this meeting, thanks to Thomas and Megan for a great day it was great to have a play with your pourovers and cold coffee dripper and chat about coffee and the world. Get well everyone and look forward to seeing you in the new year.

                            Cheers

                            Brett.

                                Might have something a bit different next year at a different venue (or maybe two depending on peoples tastes). Looking at March April timing but I will leave that up to everyone to decide.

                                Cheers
