Wonderful Swiss SCAE Coffee Championships are behind us! Four new Swiss champions have been crowned. The atmosphere was top-notch, and the organization was perfect.
Huge congratulations to the new Barista Champion Nina Rimpl, Latte Art Champion André Gabriel, Cup Tasting Champion Mathias Bühler, and Brewers Cup Champion Benjamin Hohlmann. We are keeping our fingers crossed for you at the World Championships in Rimini (Barista and Brewers) and Melbourne (Cup Tasting and Latte Art).
As Kaffeemacher, we look back on a very successful championship.
By the way: many more championships have been added since then. Find out more about them here.

We say THANK YOU!
To our coffee producers in Kenya, Ethiopia, El Salvador, and Colombia. Special thanks to Gilberto Baraona and Los Pirineos for supporting Benjamin.
