Day One of the WBC



Day one of the World Barista Competition is well underway. Today, competition wise, is all about the baristas. With 54 countries having their representatives competing for the glory and the title of the World Champion the schedule is tightly packed. Starting off at 8am Vienna time (Australia is 8 hours in front, so it’s started at 4pm local time for us), the competitors go back to back for two days straight, finishing at 5pm each night.

For the running list of all competitors check out the World Barista Championship website, or the Day 1 and Day 2 schedule links are right here.

Aussie Craig Simon is first up on day two (tomorrow, Wednesday the 13th). Local time he’ll be on at 4:15pm sharp, so don’t miss him – live stream all the action!

Other Aussie competitors Fred Lullfitz and Matt Perger are also on tomorrow. Cup tasters will be from 10am-3pm, and the Brewers Cup will be from 12pm-4pm.

I’ll surely be watching all the action, so I’ll keep you all updated as the results come in.
