Official Blogger for CoffeeCON 2013

I am humbled to have been selected by the organizers of CoffeeCON 2013, as an official blogger covering the event and sharing the experience with coffee lovers everywhere.CoffeeCON was founded by Kevin Sinnott, himself a coffee lover and blogger who reviewed coffee makers online starting in the 90s for his site The Coffee Companion. Kevin envisioned a different kind of coffee trade show from the ones that already existed, one where "the extraneous business context" was stripped away.  In short, an opportunity to take the online discussion that takes place throughout the coffee chain, and bring it to a face-to-face forum, including everybody from coffee farmers, roasters, bloggers, and of course, the coffee lovers themselves.[ad#Google Adsense - use me]This year, the event takes place on May 4th in Warrenville, IL, just outside of Chicago.  As if I wasn't already excited about the event, I happen to love the city of Chicago.  A large roaster named Intelligentsia has a number of locations in that city, so I will definitely be stopping in for an awesome coffee.I look forward to arriving at this event, and sharing the experience with all of you.  I believe it's a great opportunity to share knowledge with you, and maybe even open up the world of coffee for you.  You love coffee, so whether you're just starting to dabble in how to make it better, or you're a full-fledged connoisseur, the CoffeeCON will have something of interest for you, and I look forward to sharing it with you.Learn more about CoffeeCON here.See my name in lights on the blogger page here.
