Subject: Shop in Saint Paul, Minnesota


Greetings.

New espresso enthusiast, cafe owner and soon to be shop roaster here.
Just wanted to let you know we have a lovely little shop in South Saint
Paul, MN. We have a full scratch bakery with english all cream scones,
cinnamon and caramel rolls, we make our own biscotti, brownies,
cheesecake, fudge lava cakes, peanut butter cup bars, seven layer bars,
paninis, breakfast sandwiches, yogurt parfaits, etc. etc.

We are currently serving Paradise Roasters' Classico espresso daily and
serve a featured espresso that rotates on a weekly basis. Included on
this rotating list are coffees such as Black Cat, Barefoot roasters
Sweetness, Soon to be Stumptown (hairbender probably), and soon to be
Gimme Coffee Spro'. Probably do some S*bucks spro and White Rock, a
local roaster for comparisons. Not to group White rock with S bux.
Sorry.

Anywho, I welcome questions and feedback, we are still fine tuning our
espresso, we serve out of 15 gram doubles on a synesso three group and
three mazzers. Robur and two jollys. We have Ryan Wilbur here formerly
of Lava Java and Crema Cafe on the west coast, and Miguel of Paradise
comes in frequently to help us cup and fine tune coffee in general.

We have several comitted baristas with expanding palettes and latte art
ability.

Thank you for your time. We now return to your regularly scheduled
popcorn popper roaster modification channel.

Pete

If you reach the level of these blends with your shop roasting anytime
soon, you'll have earned my profound respect. No arguing with your
taste though.

The Twin Cities seems like it has a rather high level coffee culture;
even wone of your chains (Dunn's) is quite good, and there seem to be
a lot of small good roasters.
