I'll see you at Press with some home made chocolate covered biscotti. I am only 50% for the second location due to some family stuff that is coming up for the holiday.

Press Roastery is in the dead center of Northern Phoenix (1.7 million pop.). Press has an open, modern look to its roastery. 12 tables downstairs; 12 upstairs, all with the open air feel. Constant flow of customers.
Here is the Probat starting lineup.
Delicious, bright upfront, chocolate blend in the espresso. Worked better in my nursed espresso than in the cortado. Synesso Hydra.

Our second shop was the Lost Dutchman. Gorgeous lever machine, without the expertise and coffee needed to make it successful. A fail, unless they are a HB sponsor, in which case it was a spectacular espresso that I had. Check out the bar rag. Paper cups only? No ceramics. Such potential...

Now for the soapbox and pulpit culprits.
Frank, Gimpy. Our former Highway Patrolman (think Broderick Crawford but much more pleasant). Wife Candy over Frank's right shoulder.
Michael, CarefreeBuzzBuzz. The only guy at the table who was offered COO positions to Bezos and Gates and turned them both down.
John, RapidCoffee, AKA the Mesa Bandit. Rode west with the Earp brothers, headed to the Black Hills in search of the gold, before the Earps cleaned up Tombstone.
