Industry Talks: Catchup chat with Dylan Sedgwick of Fried Hats
After a long first day back at work, Dylan Sedgwick, the co-founder of Fried Hats in Amsterdam, took the time to sit down with Kresten Thøgersen and talk shop - covering a sumup of 2023, roast machines, and a little bit about the operations they have going on.

Coffee Roasting Series: Dylan Sedgwick of Fried Hats
Today I spoke with Dylan Sedgwick of Fried Hats in Amsterdam, Netherlands. Hailing from Aotearoa, the land of the long white cloud, aka New Zealand, he knows a thing or two about coffee . Plus he's been in the game for ages.
It was great to sit down for a call with Dylan and discuss a few things about his history and the early days of Fried Hats.
The audio quality was a bit all over the place, but the content is fire.

Coffee Roasting Series: Ruffatti Rodolfo Batlle of Finca El Salvador
After a brief hiatus I'm back with another episode of the Podcast, and today I caught up with a long term friend and coffee producer, Rodolfo Batlle, from Finca El Salvador in El Salvador's North West.
He joined me from his dry mill in El Sal with a few of his staff members who also contributed generously to the conversation. We spoke about a few topics that have been ask to me recently and I thought the answers are best from the actual producers mouth - what are the effects of processing on flavour? What's 'organic' mean to a producer? Is it a cop out word, does it have any weight? And then how do people/producers manipulate coffee to change, or enhance, the flavour profile?
An interesting conversation and great to catch up with Mr. Batlle.

Coffee Roasting Series: Ben Morrow of Manhatten Coffee Roasters
Today's episode was with Ben Morrow of Manhatten Coffee Roasters via a video call. Manhatten, and Ben Morrow, have been roasting some of Europe's most exciting coffees for years and really developing a strong following of loyal customers, so I was very interested in hearing his take on things!
It was great to hear his opinions on coffee in the European markets, the differences between Australia and Europe in regards to work and the industry, the switch from a Probat coffee roaster to a newly released Typhoon fluid bed roaster, and finishin it off talking energy via solar panels.
Due to it being a video call the audio is not the greatest and we actually were caught out using hand gestures a few times rather than explaining what we were talking about. Lessons learned for next time.
I hope you enjoy the podcast!

Service & Hospitality Series: Damien Guichard of Wax On
Today's podcast is with one of Europe's best cocktail bartenders, Damien Guichard of Wax On (https://www.instagram.com/waxonberlin/) via Southern France. We spoke about building aeroplanes mid flight, keeping menus simple, and not confusing people with your menu. It was so interesting to speak to him and hear his take on the fancy side of booze.

Service & Hospitality Series: David Chaplin of Kaschk
In today's podcast I spoke with fellow Australian, David Chaplin, of Kaschk. A positive and bubbly personality paired with a depth of knowledge, honest understanding and wisdom led Dave to operate one of Berlin's favourite craft beer and specialty coffee bars that was sadly wiped out by the corona pandemic, only to be bought out by Brlo and re-opened.
We spoke about beer brewing, bar ergonomics and many other things with a lot of Dave's famously loud and infectious laugh holding all the points together like glue.
You can find Kaschk and Dave in the L40 Building located at Linienstraße 40, 10119 Berlin.
