You know you're tired when you in desperation use superb ottolina classica espresso as drip coffee to wake up in the morning, and not the least just pour the beans into the filter unground...
Well, I felt a lot more alert in the afternoon and went to see the first day of qualification rounds for the norwegian barista championship. It is all happening down in the basement of the stockfleths bar in prinsensgate.
I took some pictures, but it is hard with the limited lighting down there. I got some pics of Chris though (a reader of this blog). He was first. His cappas and espressi looked really nice. I didn't stay long enough to get his score.
