Greetings

[thewilliams1]

I've been lurking for a while reading the wealth of info.. I feel like I'm getting to know you people haha... so I figured I'd come out of the shadows.

I'm in the middle of a feasibility study regarding opening up a hometown cafe / roaster. I grew up in Portland OR, so needless to say, coffee was a major factor in my upbringing. That vibe just isnt happening in my area right now.. I'd like it to be.

Anyways.. wanted to say Hi!

Hi thewilliams1. Thank you for finally introducing yourself. We've seen you lurking around, but figured you were just taking your time, figuring out a good screen name to use. Either that or just a shy coffee enthusiast who was a bit hesitant of joining in on our insightful, yet sometimes wacky discussions. Yes, it's true, we've also been watching you as well. (JK)

Anyway, I hope you enjoy your stay. Oh yeah, I also hope you can participate and post like there's no tomorrow in here. Welcome to Coffeeforums.com!!!

yes.. thanks for the welcome. hopefully i'll be able to add some worthwhile knowledge at some point, but it seems you guys have a good handle on it already.
