I’ve started recording a few relaxed, podcast-style chats with members of our community, (eg @Robert Hamilton) and they are proving popular. People love hearing the real stories 'behind the beans' - the journeys, the challenges, the passion. So I’m opening it up! If you’re a: - Farmer/producer, - Exporter/importer/distributor, - Cafe/Barista/retailer - Just someone with a great coffee story to tell, I’d love to sit down and chat with you. Nothing formal - just a conversation over coffee. If that sounds like you (or someone you know), drop a comment or DM me. Let’s keep sharing the stories that make this community so special ☕💛

Let's settle this once and for all.. @Jason Flamm - Speciality coffee = the standard spelling in the UK, Ireland, Europe, and much of the specialty coffee industry globally. The Speciality Coffee Association (SCA), which is international but headquartered in Europe, uses this spelling. - Specialty coffee = the American spelling, most common in the US and Canada. Both mean the same thing: high-quality coffee that scores 80+ points on the SCA scale. Which should we use here in the SCC? - You choose 👇

Came across this and thought I'd share! 😄 If you've done this before we should appoint you as king/queen for a day 👑 https://www.npr.org/2025/09/17/nx-s1-5541377/word-language-history-zarf-turkey-coffee-java-jacket

If you saw this sign in the window of a coffee shop, are you walking in, or walking past? Personally, I'm walking in.
