Alex Bernson @alexbernson This David Schomer piece (originally for @BARISTAMAGAZINE in the April/ May 2012 issue) is so crucial to any discussion of "professional baristas" Trish Rothgeb @trishrothgeb I keep thinking that Aimee Mann is on the cover of the current issue of @BARISTAMAGAZINE #doppelganger Fairtrade Canada @FairtradeCanada MT @fairtrademarkus: How does #Fairtrade work? @BARISTAMAGAZINE gives a good overview here! http://ow.ly/jJXEd COCKTAIL HOUR Bravo for Colin Whitcomb and Barista Magazine for publishing the definitive guide to coffee cocktail building, and the benefits of bringing coffee and alcohol together to add depth to our menus ["Coffee Cocktails," February+March 2013]. We had never seen anything quite so comprehensive! My entire staff passed the article around, and it was suggested that we host a coffee cocktail competition after hours; it was so much fun! We don't have our liquor license, but the exercise got my baristas really thinking about coffee profiles and different ingredients. Thank you! James Proulx Winchester, Virginia I was so inspired by Colin Whitcomb's article "Coffee Cocktails," that I have been rewriting my café menu to include some of these drinks, as well as some of my own. I have been intimidated in the past by the idea of coffee cocktails, but after I read Colin's article, I felt empowered. Coffee cocktails are my new passion. Adam Pelkey Woodstock, Georgia article that she did not aspire to own her own café. This meant a lot to my staff, because they respect Katie. They realized that you could make a name and career for yourself in coffee in lots of ways. Alexa MacKay Cody, Wyoming STRONG WRITING I subscribed to Barista Magazine in 2009 after editor Sarah Allen wrote about a trip to Tanzania; she is the most eloquent writer in the coffee industry. I read every magazine and website, and her writing is my favorite: sophisticated and stylish but still more journalistic than you usually find in trade publications. It was a treat to see "Exceptional Africans" [April + May 2013]—another spectacular piece of writing. I own my café in San Francisco, and I appreciate that Barista offers such timely and meaty stories about business and training. But I love Barista because its writers—the publisher, Kenneth Olson, and Ms. Allen, in particular—are so talented and enjoyable to read. Keep it up! Jennifer Meehan San Mateo, California PRAISE FOR MISS KATIE I watched Katie Carguilo (featured on the cover of the Febuary + March 2013 issue) compete in the United States Barista Championship in 2012 online, and I thought she was so good. Thank you for writing about her so I can learn more. I own two cafés in Wyoming, and I tell my baristas all the time that they can make a career in coffee in any number of ways. So I showed them how Katie said in the PHONE: 800.296.9108 16 barista magazine FAX: 971.223.3659 TIPJAR@BARISTAMAGAZINE.COM
