The Barn in Berlin (and now also in 2 other countries), it's interesting to hear a similar story from Ralf. Opened around the same time with Five Elephant.

Great video about a great Roaster. First checked them out in 2013 with The Barn, after first contact with Specialty Coffee at Bonanza Coffee (Heroes) in 2010. I also bought a load of ACME cups with them, first try to import them via Air Craft. 😬

Great job with the video! Unfortunately with all that QC I've still not had a great bag of coffee from them. I try their stuff off and on looking to give a second chance even tried different water recipes but.... Great branding at least. I've also lived in Australia and close to Portland Oregon so I would say there standards are on another level.

Good job, I enjoyed watching this. It is difficult to keep QC consistently high... I see why Cropster Cafe does indeed bring an advantage when a roaster has more than one retail location. Cool

@@MyHammer111 I suppose they don't need to make any money so that helps. btw, yes i just found more hip young people with the deliberate 'worst bad haircut' look thats going around. it turns out it takes a good hour at the barber to make it look that way and so it will grow out looking worse each day. Kids says it not that expensive though. cost him $80 for that 'mock the poors' look.

Well I don’t spend money on my hair. My wife/partner cuts it. I can’t speak for the others in the video. We don’t have a policy about haircuts except that if it’s long, it should be tied back. I’m more than 20 years older than most of our staff in the video, so also can’t really speak on what’s in trend or not hair style wise. 🤷🏻‍♂️
