Welcome Rick! What is your end goal? To work or own a coffee shop? Do you want to roast? It says you are in the Southern USA...where in the south are you? Well...again. Welcome and as Rose said lots of interesting info here along with some interesting characters.

Welcome. I'm new here also. But I did own a cafe and I involved with a new roasting company in NY. So if I can help at all. Please ask. The coffee industry has a lot of great folks. It it is tough to break in as a new roaster and cafe. You say you want to roast. Have you roasted before, tell us about it.

Thanks for the welcomes. I'm just getting started with everything and hoping that we will be up and going in 2-3 years. I am still researching many different aspect of coffee from plant to cup. My next major move will be some cupping classes.
I'm spending a lot of time reading post and learning from the knowledgable people here. Thx, Rick

Hey guys, Ivan here from Melbourne, Down Under.

Long time coffee addict and barista but no much longer as I'm getting a 'real job' - still keeping my passion alive on Latte Art Guide. Been blogging (rather sporadically) since 2013. Looking to get more into drip and pour over coffee as in Melbourne it's all about the espresso.

P.s Woah first post is 2003, didn't even know this forum was here for so long!

Going into Intellectual Property, I enjoy it, however I still would love to open up an Italian Espresso bar down the road. Just one big slab of wood/counter, espresso machine on top, in a small but high volume room just doing coffees and small snacks. Only works if the location is right though.
