It's busy out there in the world of coffee: national barista champions from across the globe are in Milan for The World Barista Championship at HOST Milano and La Marzocco's Out of the Box. Who will become the 2025 World Barista Champion? Only time will tell! In the meantime, we've got another humdinger of an episode of the Coffee Sprudgecast. Much is discussed on this episode but the real meat is in the macchiato. Espresso macchiato? Macchiato latte? Caramel Macchiato? "Traditional" macchiato? What's a real macchiato anyway? After a brush with macchiato clarification at a coffee bar in Portland, host Jordan Michelman had questions.             View this post on Instagram                         A post shared by Sprudge (@sprudge) With every fresh episode, there's fresh coffee. With another fresh coffee offering from the Roaster's Village, the hosts drink Bay Area's Equator Coffees limited Kona Monarch Washed Pacamara. The coffee was brewed and enjoyed using coffee gear we're bench testing at Sprudge HQ: the coffee was ground fresh with the Timemore Sculptor 078S and brewed using a Miir Pourigami Travel Coffee Dripper. We're partnering with Miir to provide 25% off Miir products using promo code SPRUDGE25. The hosts ("big vessel guys") enjoyed the coffee in a 2-WayCup from Slow Pour Supply: Introducing the award winning, newly refined 2-WayCup, crafted with precision and an eye for excellence. In collaboration with Martin Wölfl, WBrC 2024 Champion, 2-WayCup’s design has been elevated to ensure an enhanced tasting experience. This champion-approved refinement guarantees that every sip meets the highest standards of enjoyment. Stay tuned to Sprudge and @Sprudge on Instagram for the very latest.
