It’s Hood strawberry season here in Portland, Oregon and we have strawberry fever here at the Coffee Sprudgecast. Hood season also means it’s Build-Outs of Coffee season and hosts Jordan Michelman and Zachary Carlsen are champing at the bit to kick things off next week. Will this be the biggest build-outs season ever?
To take build-outs buzz to 11, the hosts share a Strawberry White Chocolate Mocha using 1883 Strawberry Syrup, Hollander Chocolate’s White Chocolate Café Sauce, La Barba Deviation Espresso, and Pacific Barista Series Pistachio milk. Is there such a thing as too much buzz? Perhaps. And so to smooth out, the hosts share a Hario v60 pour-over of Honeymoon Coffee’s House Blend.
We’re gear heads over here and had the chance to try the new Themis Ultra. Is it thee-mis or teh-miss? Is it Sprudge like fudge or Sprüdge like stooge? We could spend a city block’s worth of electricity and 100 gallons of water asking a chat bot for the answer (and to tell us how beautiful we are) or…we could simply choose to pronounce it however we like.
One last thing: The Barista Champion Database is collecting data, and if you’ve ever been a coffee champion of anything, please submit your stats so we can launch the biggest database of Barista Champions in the known universe.
