Hey Guys,

Still at the factory trying to pack all my stuff.

Even without grinders and a whole lot of other stuff I am still over weight for my flight in the morning!

Will have to skip that muffin at Muffin Break in the morning...

Hope everyone is packed and ready.

See you in Wellington.

Dave.

Luciano's going to Copenhagen
Luciano Marcolino beat strong competition from eight other competitors yesterday to be named New Zealand Barista Champion.

Luciano's win meant that he takes home a La Marzocco GS3 home espresso machine care of La Marzocco and Allpress Espresso and a Compak grinder from the New Zealand bevarage corp.

Luciano will also represent New Zealand at the World Barista Championships in Copenhagen in June. In 2006 he competed at the Berne World event and came seventh, lets hope this year is our year to take home the World Champion trophy!
