Reviews

4.5 out of 5 stars from 8 ratings
  • No clue

    The host Kirk Pearson has no clue as to what he is talking about. He suffers from major TDS. His lack of knowledge on coffee is only surpassed by his lack of understanding of geo politics.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Nic Petrie: PBDS, Co Fermentation, UFC
Q: What grinds your beans about current coffee culture?
There is a tension between fresh, traditional approaches and new techniques like co-fermentation and PBDS. The market and wholesale accounts benefit when innovations are paired with real consumer demand, which can drive revenue even if purists resist at first.
Football To Coffee: Life After Professional Football For Zac Smith
Q: So what's the kind of vibe up there in Queensland?
It's a great lifestyle. If you love your outdoors, you're always outdoors up there.
Football To Coffee: Life After Professional Football For Zac Smith
Q: At what point did you realize that you wanted to get into coffee?
Early on, there wasn't much of a scene up on the Gold Coast... it wasn't really until I moved to Geelong, where my kind of love for coffee took off.
Christopher Feran: Post Harvest and Green Bean Specialist
Q: What do you think of the recent Civil War within the roasting community?
There's a lot of vitriol online, and while I think disagreement is healthy, it often takes precedence over engaging with ideas meaningfully.
Christopher Feran: Post Harvest and Green Bean Specialist
Q: What are some of the challenges that you're navigating in this field?
