EP 13: Communication in coffee with Erika Vonie
It’s a fact that specialty coffee professionals are doing impressive work towards high quality products and are developing different sensorial profiles. Baristas are mastering brewing methods, roast masters have the technique to enhance acidity and flavor with their magic machines and farmers are full of new techniques and different lots. However, how are they are communicating the wonders of specialty coffee to the consumer?
In 2019 , We took the opportunity to go to New York to meet independent coffee consultant and 2017 NYC Coffee Masters Champion, Erika Vonie. Our goal was to discuss the challenge of communicating the specialty coffee complexity to the typical coffee consumer. How do we reach this big chunk of consuming market – which pay our bills – in a fun, inclusive and informative way? This episode brings some insights!

RESUMO
É fato que profissionais de café especial estão fazendo um trabalho impressionante com qualidade e desenvolvimento de perfis sensoriais diferentes. Baristas estão dominando métodos de preparo; mestres de torra conseguem realçar acidez e sabores in seus torradores mágicos e produtores sempre aparecem com alguma novidade. Porém, como eles estão comunicando as maravilhas do café especial para consumidores?
Tivemos a oportunidade de encontrar pessoalmente a consultora independente e campeã do 2017 NYC Coffee Masters, Erika Vonie. Nosso objetivo nesse episódio e falar sobre os desafios de se comunicar a complexidade do café especial para os consumidores. Como alcançar uma grande parcela do mercado consumidor – que paga nossas contas – de uma forma divertida, inclusiva e informativa? Esse episódio traz algumas reflexões e sugestões.
