Intimate cafe with lots of characters and great coffee in Busan. Kindof the vibe you get from most of the bussinesses in Busan. We had 2 different filter brews that were available on the 'wooden block' menu and an espresso made with a manual level espresso machine from La Pavoni πŸ’ͺThe filter brews were really sweet and juicy, I was surprised with the quality of the espresso! Also interesting is the heavy duty Mahlkonig VTA6S grinder and a free roaming cat in the shop πŸ˜„ Thank you @naive_brewers for the hospitality and coffee and @duffwhaler for the recommendationπŸ‘β˜• There are few other cafes and restaurants located in the same quiet alley which is a good getaway from the main and crowded Jeonpo district.
Gesha galore at @centercoffee. This is at one of the pop-up located in Gangnam as I couldnt find the time to visit the main branch. Check out the gesha selections on the menu πŸ‘β˜• Thank you @marcusfoo and @irixyzify for the recommendation!
Had a super yummy filtered coffee with tropical fruit notes of mango and papaya at @5brewing. Available as a special blend in the menu. This is also the home of the brew master! Spent a wholesome hour browsing through the coffee books here πŸ‘β˜•
Visited @anthracite_coffee_roasters today which is 'almost' hidden inside an old industrial compound. It kindof reminded me of an underground club πŸ˜‚ This is another cafe which takes specialty coffee seriously and bakes pastries in-house πŸ‘β˜• Thank you @deathpenguins for the recommendation!
Not only are the coffee really good (had 4 cups in one visit), the pastries are freshly baked in the shop too! No doubt, @fritzcoffeecompany is an already well known place for coffeegeeks with so many varieties of coffee to choose from. Love the cheese tart too πŸ˜‹Had a really good experience here this morning πŸ‘β˜•
Hello from South Korea :) Just arrived today in this coffee crazy country. The proximity of coffee shops here reminded me of Seattle, and i've started the specialty coffee experience with @coffee_libre. Enjoyed the orange fruity cafe latte and the brewed coffee πŸ‘β˜• Do you guys have any recommendations on where in Seoul and Busan i must visit for good coffee?
Haven't paticipated in such a geeky and mouth watering cupping in quite a while. To list a few, we had really juicy tasting coffee from @orangecactuscoffee , geisha from Tim Wendelboe, tropical fruit bomb from an Indonesia roaster, and more sweet coffee roasted by @rytopa. All prepared with water enriched with @thirdwavewater! Pretty impressed with the way our host @jeremytan86insta stores the beans in the freezer and the grind quality of @rytopa's hack-ed up grinder. Also had lots of fun with the @flairespressomaker manual espresso maker. Thank you for having me, glad to meet these crazy geeky home roasters/baristas πŸ‘πŸ’ͺβ˜•
I've been enjoying coffee from this cup recently and it has 'cool touch' and 'keep warm' features which are really useful for the coffee addicts. More interestingly, it is made from Coffee husk! What a way to recycle material πŸ’ͺThank you @forewordcoffee for the @huskeecup πŸ‘β˜• Ok back to savouring my coffee in a coffee cup made from coffee πŸ˜„ Check out @forewordcoffee to find out how they are creating social impact and also to get this cool cup!
#Repost from @youwhalenotfindme, the first runner-up in this year's Singapore National Brewers cup πŸ’ͺHad a fun time demonstrating the scale to the enthusiastic team at @cshhcoffee ・・・ My mind was blown and inspired last night!! Met the man behind Rocket espresso, and the man who handmade his own scale, input volumetric function into his machine etc. Thank you @kopiaddict_ks for sharing so much with us about your scales!!! THEY ARE AMAZING.
