Show Notes
Jack Simpson of Australia has won the World Barista Championship.
About an hour after his victory we sat down with Jack, his roaster Matt Crowley and owner of Axil Coffee Roasters Dave Makin.
In this podcast we discussed what went into becoming the world barista champion and the methods Jack used.
Instrumental in his success was his entire team, perhaps most of all was Matt Crowley (Head of Coffee at Axil) who was with him every step of the way.
As many know, Jack came second last year in what was the tightest result in WBC history, and he came back determined as ever to win.
What goes into sourcing, roasting and preparing for a World Barista Championship run? Find out in this episode of the Coffee Show.
Thanks again to Jack who is a great friend of The Coffee Show.
Thanks again to our Sponsors Timemore, Oatly and Barista Group. And big shout out to Specialty Coffee Association Panama who lent us space on their booth which allowed us to record podcasts at the show.

This weeks podcast will be audio only because we had some issues with the camera recording this. The honest story is we were in a venue where chefs were butchering some freshly caught tuna (which looked lovely) and so the camera was out of focus and thus we couldn't use the footage.
Chris Maybury is a disruptor in coffee and this episode has been a long time coming.
Australian coffee professionals have been up in arms about a new concept called Specialty Coffee Factory Outlet (SCFO). Kirk interviewed the founders Julian Moussi and Cory Slater to get their perspective.
