Welcome to The Coffee Innovation Summit - a podcast by Scott Rao
from 2020-02-05T23:08:06
our venue in Melbourne
LATE EDIT: THE COFFEE INNOVATION SUMMIT HAS BEEN CANCELLED; MATT AND I WILL INSTEAD USE THE SPACE WE RENTED IN PORTLAND TO HOST A FEW INFORMAL EVENTS. MORE ON THAT IN A NEWER POST. WE APOLOGIZE FOR ANY INCONVENIENCE.
I’m excited to announce The Coffee Innovation Summit. Matt Perger and I will be organizing two one-day events, one in Portland on April 23 and the other in Melbourne on May 3, coinciding with SCA Expo and MICE, respectively.
The Coffee Innovation Summit will explore the cutting edge of specialty coffee. The program will include live tastings alongside presentations of innovative ideas by industry experts. Attendees will have the chance to experience our speakers’ innovations firsthand.
Throughout the events, our team of top-tier, paid baristas will serve numerous high-quality coffees, demonstrating industry best practices. All of the coffee we serve will be chosen and roasted for the event, and brewed on cutting-edge equipment using custom-made water. We plan to not only offer delicious, memorable coffee, but also carefully curated, interesting tasting flights to complement our presentations.
We are still confirming our full roster of speakers, but so far, presenters and topics in Portland include:
Optical sorting of green coffee for specialty production - Jon Allen, Onyx Coffee Lab
Controlled fermentation of coffee using wine yeasts - Lucia Solis, Luxia
The next generation of espresso grinds distribution - Matt Perger
Ultraviolet fluorescence of green coffee to detect defects - Christopher Feran, Phoenix Coffee
Roast defects: how to detect and prevent them - Scott Rao
