Our first in-person barista course post lockdown is 100% women. There are a *lot* of coffee changes afoot, and here’s what we’ve learned so far. (Lesson 1 is a social one: Stay. In. Touch. with furloughed/laid off coffee workers. Everyone is anxious.) probaristas.com/news/2020/7/20…

More stuff we’ve learned through lockdown supporting furloughed coffee people, consulting for creative new pop-ups and testing new roasting & cafe models ourselves. (One open question: How many coffee jobs will there be?) probaristas.com/news/2020/7/20…

Stuff we’re learning: - 100% of our current barista course = women. - Stay connected with out-of-work coffee people. - New cafe models are rapidly supplanting old. - Consumers really want ethically sharp coffees - direct to their home. More: probaristas.com/news/2020/7/20…

In Brighton this morning with Speciality Baristas at One Church. Vaulted ceilings and gentle measures to ensure separation and much needed ventilation. Plenty happening in this coastal hub for hospitality with over 100 #eatouthelpout businesses in the town centre.

Our new cafe + these cult tacos. Can’t miss this, tomorrow.
