Allpress Ezpresso

February 7th, 2010 | Comments Off | Posted in 123triad

Establishing and operating a successful Allpress Ezpresso coffee business involves hard work and dedication. Securing loyal customers and being rewarded for your efforts requires constant delivery of outstanding coffee, food and customer service. Selecting a coffee supplier who understands the nature of your caf, espresso bar or restaurant, and who will work with you in partnership to achieve outstanding coffee is essential. Training is important to the success of your business, and serving exceptional espresso is your best guarantee of return sales.

Espresso preparation is a skill that requires a depth of understanding, and is learnt through training and practice. It is not a one-off event. It should be an ongoing programme that is encouraged at every level in the culture of your caf. There are no shortcuts to becoming a top barista and to complement your operation they offer a number of classes. As a specialty coffee roaster they use strictly high grade Arabica beans which require careful and sustainable production methods.

Cafe Cruz

February 6th, 2010 | Comments Off | Posted in 123triad

Opening in February of 1995, Cafe Cruzs goal was to blend traditional regional American and world foods with new and innovative techniques, creating their “New American Cuisine”. The interior decor was designed to offer an open, festive, casual atmosphere. The focal points of the dining room are their copper backed open kitchen and the French made Rotisol Rotisserie, which allow you to view the creation of your meal.

The sandstone used throughout the bar and dining area is imported from India. Their bar top is hewn from a solid piece of California Fir, tracing its history back to the Old Bass Lake Hotel at the turn of the century. The murals are the work of a local artist, Terry Wells. They depict facets of Santa Cruz County’s local scenery and agriculture. They use the freshest local produce (organic when possible), freshly caught fish from sustainable sources, fresh natural California poultry & pork, and Harris Ranch Beef (naturally raised in California), complemented by their other top line ingredients.

Ebony Coffee Company

February 5th, 2010 | Comments Off | Posted in 123triad

Ebony Coffee Company was started in 1996 initially roasting with a 12 kg Otto Swadla and mainly for themselves, their friends and one cafe. A few retail sales were made on Saturday mornings. Their first full time employee arrived on the scene within three months and they have not looked back since. They moved to new premises in Feb 2000 and late in 2003 they doubled its size to allow room for a barista training facility, a larger roaster and warehouse space for commercial equipment. In 2006 they moved to a dedicated factory site.

These days they roast with a 30 kg Petroncini. In addition to their every popular coffee blends there is also a flourishing commercial hire operation. Some of their staff are approved HSI assessors. They consider themselves to be an unpretentious company and avoid the vain claims made by many boutique roasters. So they don’t claim to roast every day, nor do they cup every sack of beans and they don’t personally select the beans.

HUMMINGBIRD COFFEE

February 4th, 2010 | Comments Off | Posted in 123triad

HUMMINGBIRD COFFEE is a boutique coffee roastery, wholly New Zealand owned and operated. They’ve been roasting since 1990 - Big enough to offer you everything you need. Yet small enough to maintain their boutique culture and values. They source beans from around 20 different origins. They roast each origin in small batches to best bring out its ideal flavour characteristics. Pre-blending green beans, which many roasters now do, does not allow for any individual characteristics of the bean to be taken into account when roasting.

They have sound quality control and product development. Their roasters always have their eye on new beans and ways to enhance their range and quality. To this end theyre cupping every week, checking flavour profiles and roasting techniques to ensure the best results for each origin prior to blending. They provide Barista Training, a Cafe Set-up and Consultancy Service, Technical Support second to none and they react quickly to your needs.
