About the Competition


Baristas from the surrounding states of Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, and Ohio, will converge at Coffee Fest for the Great Lakes Barista Championship hosted by Coffee Masters, Inc., where they will take part in a competition designed to encourage and recognize the art of espresso preparation and service. Competitors will serve up to 12 drinks in a 15-minute period in front of a panel of seven judges. Four espressos, four cappuccinos and four beverages of their own creations will be critiqued on preparation and service techniques. The winner will proceed to the U.S. Barista Championship held in Portland, Ore., in March 2009.

This event is presented by the Specialty Coffee Association of America, the industry's trade group, which coordinates 10 such regional events throughout the country, as well as a national competition every year. For the first time, Coffee Masters, Inc. of Spring Grove, IL is proudly hosting the event during the Coffee Fest Chicago Trade Show.
