Too Much Coffee

3 days in and I'm already feeling increasingly frustrated. The current practice is to extract 2 double shots through 14gs over 25~ seconds and any suggestion to change that is met with "It's what people around here are used to". Given that the coffee is unevenly burnt-medium roast and again that's what people are used to I'm feeling that it was easier to get the servie to change its ways....

It must be so frustrating. I feel for you . Hopefully you'll be able to turn them around over time.

You tried Beans round the corner? I offered to work for them for free, well the one in Higham Ferrers anyway. They declined because their boss knows his shit and needs no input from anyone. You're up against it in Northamptonshire.

I have, I did try to get in there, although I don't know how long I could bite my tongue about fairtrade :-p

Alas, I was on the bar today and did things my way instead, nobody complained so I take it was good.

Also latte art is something they've never seen..
