Price

$8.00 per person

On September 19th we're having a cupping at Cafe Grumpy, my favorite coffee shop in the city.

An experienced barista will lead us through the cupping process of looking at the beans, smelling the dry aroma, wet aroma, and tasting the coffee. The cupping leader will then tell us about each coffee - if there are any special details about the particular beans, roasting etc. This tasting and Q&A session will last about an hour.

We're having this cupping at Cafe Grumpy's Chelsea locations which can accomodate at most 10 of us, but if we get good reviews for the event, we'll have a bigger one at Cafe Grumpy's Greenpoint location.

Cafe Grumpy will not be charging us for the coffee that we're tasting but we'll reimburse them for the barista's time, that's why there is a $8 charge for this event. Due to the small number we can accomodate, please finalize your RSVPs by September 12th and pay in advance so that I know exactly how many people are coming. All "Maybe" RSVPs will be erased after September 12th.

Also coming up, are two other educational and fun cupping events at Whole Foods Tribeca in October and Intelligentsia in November.

Cheers,
Dilek

    • “ A highly effective way to impart renewed energy to this group, whose formation predates the selection of the "meetup.com" platform. Hats off to our organizer for a decisive move in this direction. Cafe Grumpy's representative, Ed, was a good communicator and his selection of four origins was inspired, even witty after a fashion. He ran a cupping session with high standards and gently pushed the envelope with some of the specific coffees. This helped make the event equally useful and educational to participants with varying levels of experience in the specialty coffee "scene." ”
    • “ I really enjoyed it - the instructor was very knowledgeable and the coffee tasted great! I am looking forward to the next Javaheads meetup! ”
    • “ Great cupping! ”
    • “ Interesting presentation, but I would have preferred to get small cups of coffee. Kind of gross all dipping our spoons in the same bowls. ”
    • “ Ed, our barrista, was knowledgeable and friendly, and skillfully guided the cupping. Changed my 'coffee life". ”
