TEDGlobal 2011 Edinburgh

This week begins the TED 2011 conference in Edinburgh. An event where industry leader's from around the world talk about important topics facing the world's future and important current events and trends.

To help promote a better understanding of coffee and coffee production an organisation was formed called Coffee Common. Their aim being to help raise awareness of speciality coffee and it's route from farm to cup to attendees. The hope being the attendees go away from the conference with a little more knowledge and awareness of coffee and how special a product it is and can be, from farmer to consumer.

We were asked if we would like to provide barista tools for the barista's participating at the Coffee Common event at TED 2011. We were delighted! A chance to work with some of the world's best roaster's, coffee professionals at such event doesn't come around often.

Here is a list of item's we provided:

Black Teflon milk pitchers

Espresso Gear tampers

EPNW Pitcher Rinser's

Espresso spoons

Bar towels

Grinder brushes

Bar brushes
