Cool Beans!

Last night was another train adventure up to SLC.  We went to another Life Long Learning class from the UofU.  This one was All About Coffee: Introduction to Specialty Coffee.  Our instructor is Levi Rogers who is a local coffee roaster.  

This week the class was How We Get Coffee - History, Growing, Roasting.  Next week the class will be How We Make and Taste Coffee - Brewing and Cupping.

Charming Beards, the name of the roasting company, is located in a light industrial area and is one really large room maybe 30 x 50 feet.  I find it so exciting to see a business at its infancy and that you don't need much space to set it up.  Plus they are sharing part of that space with a photographer! And let's face it, the roaster in its brass and stainless glory is stunningly beautiful.
