As many of you know we host public cuppings in our roastery cupping lab each week on Friday's at 10am. Every few weeks we take our cupping series on the road as well. We have held public cuppings at our wholesale partners cafes in locations such as Port Townsend and Seattle so far this year!
On May 17th we will do it again with our espresso machine partners La Marzocco. We are delving into a topic that is on our minds lately.
Cupping protocol & scores
Cupping should be the means for quantifying and understanding of a coffees quality. However very few consumers and roasters use and understand cupping scores. I want to address this issue head on. We will evaluate scores that having been graded lower than 80 upwards of 85, 87, 89, 91.This cupping will also address protocol of running a cupping for evaluation for cupping score. For example Agtron roast degree, water quality, grind size, water to coffee, and table protocol.
Please join us at La Marzocco at 10am July 17th1553 NW Ballard Wa Seattle, WA 98107
