Thanks KK! I have not paid attention in the past -- so, as a noob, your commentary will be particularly welcome [read: tell us what we are watching and what the good/bad subtleties are]. How much crazy fun is this for me?!?! World Cup AND WBC 2010 in the SAME week!?!? My head might explode from sheer joy. David europiccola | yama + coryrod | chemex | AP | clever

This has been some great stuff. (most of the time). It is great to see some baristas with a working knowledge of the actual farming and processing that elads to their final product. What is your signiture drink? Mine is a layed shot that brings the best of vietnemese style coffee perfectly fused with classic cappuccino traditions - with a finishing hint of toasted almonds. |

Update Australia won the best coffee nation title as it's based on the ranking of all 5 competitions. 1] 3rd in the barista comp 2] 2nd in the latte art comp 3] 6th in the cup tasting comp 4] 4th in the good spirits comp 5] 12th in the Cezve/Ibrik (turkish coffee) comp So overall Australia finished as top of all nations that entered a competitor in each comp. Until next time I bid all coffee enthusiasts a fond farewell and may your cup never run dry KK I home roast and I like it. Designer of the KKTO
