Re: CoffeeSnobs GREEN BeanBay - 20th Aug

Welcome back Remy
I got some Peru and Png Wahgi Just couldnt say no to Wahgi.But my Wife wont be going to pick them up for me. She thinks Andy is to organised this month and was hoping pick up would be next week.

Thanks MartyBean,..twas the call of green beans that pulled me out of my website-maintenance stupor.

Put "I snoozed in BeanBay" in the subject line.

Or more accurately "I sneezed in Beanbay"

Cheers

I think more accurately  "I blinked in Beanbay"

Hey, I recognise that frog.
Hi Remy, good to see you(r frog) again.
(Its been a little bit quiet since youve been away, except for bean bay action of course.)

Greg

Awe thanks Greg,.. Im still around,..roasting and drinking great coffee as usual,.. I still pop in from time to time to have a quick read but just not talking. Im being good not allowing myself to get distracted/off the task of getting my online business back up to where I want it. I have a lot of work to do on it/for it,.. but the light at the end of the tunnel is faintly visible now.

Was great in Beanbay again,.. love all that pushin and shovin....and the heavy-boot footprint in my back doesnt even hurt anymore.

Glad to see the little green frog back again .... Been missing your bubbly posts Remy,

Mal.

Thanks Mal,.. Ive been trying to be serious for the last few months ... I know, hard to imagine.... but I am so far proud of the concentrated effort Ive put in to bring my little business up out of the ground agaaaaaain. I need to generate more sales somehow ya see,.to keep me in the bean stash of which I would like to become accustomed and to afford a bottomless portafilter *snort* .

Hi Andy,

Talk about a quick delivery!!

Had two parcels on the front door this morning - what great service.

Now for the decision -
 1. roast beans
 2. finish turning the bowl I was in the middle of
 3. do the house work.

No decision to be made there - now which bean variety should I try first - lets do a bit of both..

Thanks again Andy.  

Cheers Bazza

Yes we try hard to get everyting out as soon as the payment hits our accounts.

You can keep #3, I would like to see #2 but yes, most here would agree that #1 in the priority list is great coffee and if you have enough of it the other chores might get done faster
(or done after midnight)


Enjoy!

Around Beanbay time, not very much.

Too true. Come to think of it, not much before BeanBay and not much after it either! We pack and move beans for a week or more either side of BeanBay often finishing circa 2am.... some months blur together but the coffee is always great.

Excellent although I cannot take all the credit, Paula (wife and "CoffeeSnobs logistics manager") has a great grasp on what has to be where when so it gets around the country fast and she "satchel-stuffed" most of Thursday while I worked.

Matt "Geekrocket" chops and changes the BeanBay code to improve the backend system processes which makes it easier and faster for us to track orders, payments and shipping.

...and PayPal makes for speedy service too as we dont cop the 2 day bank lag waiting for payments.

Mostly we run like a well oiled machine!
(well, I run on great double espresso shots, not oil)



Enjoy the beans!

This was fun, I was a bit late but still got something - cant wait for them to arrive.

Well done Andy
I like the fact that the Beanbay is a family affair!
Andy had his young supervisor with him today but i am sure he would be more at home in front of the PS3

Re: CoffeeSnobs GREEN BeanBay - 20th Aug


Dont tell Zed the PS3 is out, the kids still use a Xbox1 and think its pretty cool.


Yes it is a family affair, all 3 kids have a part in moving beans around and are young enough to still enjoy "helping dad" although the van is only a 2 seater so #1 and #2 have to take it in turns when we do the drop-off.

His wages for the day was his choice for lunch, Viet spring rolls and rice-paper rolls in Victoria St. (twas nice too).

It was great to catch-up with everyone again, the pickups are always a good chance to waffle about coffee to people that care what they drink and the Veneziano espresso and hospitality is always great.
