Having a good day.

Today's been very weird and exciting all at once. I have had so many coffee connoisseurs coming in and trying our coffee. This is great but unfortunately sometimes when I find out who people are and if I know that, well lets just say I can get nervous and make a coffee which isn't so great.
This is the time when I need to dig deep and pull of perfect latte art such as a rosetta(the leaf).


This also more importantly needs to be a full flavoured well extracted espresso coffee. Anyway my guests understood I was nervous and being the nice guy I am let one of them try out my machine, grinder and tamper. Now I wouldn't normally do that but I do have a back ground associated with this guest and their family, so I offered it. Thank God! Because he extracted and made a beautiful coffee and in doing so tried my coffee at it's truly deserved level.
He was surprised and shocked at how good our Platino Blend was. His words were, "I think this coffee is better than the specialty coffee I am using".
Wow, what a compliment! Especially after the mistake I made under those nerves........now I am having a great day.

The other great part of my day is having ordered a toaster/salamander off ebay yesterday morning by 9am and having it arrive by 8.30am this morning. We also got a sandwich press as well for today. We have done so many more pizza slices and sandwiches(toasted of course) today.

So I must get going as I am well behind my work with all that has gone on. Bye
