This is the long-form, uncut version of my conversation with Maxwell Colonna-Dashwood. He shared many insightful stories ranging from his experience encountering specialty coffee in Australia, competing in Barista Championships, writing books about coffee and water for coffee specifically, as well as his affinity for lifting heavy things, often big rocks and big coffee bags. I've created a bit of a guide here for easier perusing:

Would you prefer to listen to these convos on a podcast platform, or should I keep it on KZbin?

i know I'm commenting a lot your videos here, but loved this conversation. Obviously found the conversation about his product development very interesting. Working in injection moulded parts is no joke. Massive investment in design time and massive investment in tooling. If you skimp on either one you're in trouble. Then getting tons of user feedback and having to wait until you have funds to do a V2.0 I also found his opinion on pods really surprising. Made me open my mind a bit to that. I always thought it was just weak yuppie coffee... shows my ignorance for sure.
