On Saturday, December 1st from 11am to 2pm the good folks at Lost Dutchman Coffee Roasters are hosting a free coffee tasting. At 2pm they will be holding a raffle (tickets for purchase) with all proceeds going to a good cause. Victor Kessler, the owner and coffee roaster, sent me some information I’m sharing below. Looks like a great event! Coffee Tasting December 1st for local customers of Lost Dutchman Coffee Roasters: The amazing new Brazen Brewer will be highlighted along with a raffle for a Chemex Brewer, Hario Brewers, and of course some coffee. The brewers all come with a pack a filters. Some of the key features to the Brazen include: precise temperature control. Easy programming of a pre-wetting cycle, and very, very even shower head distribution over the coffee grinds typically only seen in high-end commercial brewers. The machine even self calibrates for different brewing altutudes. At this event, folks can see the Brazen in operation to help decide for themselves if the machine lives up to its reputation along with sampling a selection of some of our best coffees including our seasonal Holiday Blend. 100% of the proceeds from the raffle will go to our favorite charity, Sunshine Acres Children’s Home. This is our way of giving back to the community. The tasting will be Dec 1st from 11am-2pm, with the raffle for the prizes commencing at 2:00pm sharp. For complete trasparency, a representative of Sunshine Acres will be on hand to collect the raffle donations. Click here for driving directions.

Victor Thank you very much to all that showed up to our open house and bought charity raffle tickets. We were able to raise several hundred dollars for the Sunshine Acres Children’s Home. Lots of folks at the open house made reference to finding out about the event through Arizona Coffee, so we really appreciate the post Chris put up in advance. There are some really great people out there. In case anyone’s wondering, a gentleman named “Jim” won the Brazen brewer. His eyes opened wide as dinner plates when his name was called. Maybe it’s not quite like winning the Powerball, but it is still really a neat machine. 0 Reply December 3, 2012
