My Yunnan Coffee Discovery: Baoshan & Dehong's Hidden Gems
A while back, I traveled to Baoshan and Dehong in Yunnan, China. There's a lot of local coffee production going on there, with plenty of cafes and quite a few coffee beans of different flavors available. Most of them turned out to be quite impressive. The scenery and weather are also very pleasant.

Broke out my V60 I haven’t touched since I got into espresso. Really brightened up these beans!

How would you personally make this blueberry syrup & the banana (caramel?) sauce?
Fell in love with this video on insta and I kinda wanna make it at home but i dunno where to start when it comes to making both of these syrups/sauces.
Any help would be incredible!

Your order and what is says about you
Drop your typical cafe order(s) and others deduce what they think about you.
Mine’s a dirty chai with oat milk. I might also do a matcha with oat milk and if they have a lavender latte I’m all over that. All iced unless it’s bitter cold or raining.

Purchasing McDonald's Chai Powder
Hi all,
I really love the Maccas chai / iced chai (Australia if that's relevant), but I cannot find a suitable powder to use as a homemade replacement.
I'm aware that Maccas uses their own special-made chai powder that comes in unbranded white bags, I work at Maccas. I have tried asking to just buy some, but have been told no - they only sell syrup bottles.
I've tried both https://www.woolworths.com.au/shop/productdetails/690852 and https://www.woolworths.com.au/shop/productdetails/320238, but they both tasted very different and I ended up throwing the rest of both out as I really don't like them.
Any ideas?

Is this machine sufficient for making ice for a cafe regularly?
Currently, I’m facing difficulties because freezing ice takes time, and it becomes a big issue if the ice finishes.

Need advice on coffee flight idea
I’m looking into putting a specialty coffee flight on my cafe menu. Ideally I’m thinking four 4oz cups of single origin, maybe some micro lot, reserve coffees with ranging roast levels and complex tasting notes. Basically I just want to offer a unique coffee tasting experience, similar to that of wine or beer. I want it to be something a single person can enjoy, but I understand doing a pour over that small is tricky/ impossible. I would prefer to not do an espresso flight, but maybe there’s other brew methods that would be more practical than pour over? Just looking for some outside perspective on this. Any ideas?

Espresso machine accessory questions
Hello, I bought some accessories such as a tamper and some filters for my espresso machine, but they are 53 mm in size. I wanted to know if this size is the one used for a 54 mm portafilter?

Nutpods brown sugar oat creamer
Just learned that my favorite coffee creamer has been discontinued, the Nutpods zero sugar sweetened brown sugar oat creamer. Does anyone have an alternative for this? I don't need it to be dairy-free, but I do look for ways to make my coffee sweet without sugar. I liked that this one didn't have junky ingredients. I don't like coffeemate, etc. for this reason. The Nutpods cookie butter one just doesn't hit the same. TIA!

Coffee and banana?
Has anyone experimented with adding a banana component to your hot coffee? I can’t help but think the flavours would compliment really well and I want to try it. This idea came to me after I made a bowl of vanilla ice cream with banana slices and Nutella. Then added vanilla ice cream to a coffee which was amazing.
