Good luck Rinaldo. I'm looking forward to tasting and smelling the coffee !

Wow! We've done it! Thank you all so much for helping reach target. The target now gets stretched for a day so I can raise more towards the cost of the roaster without penalty. I'm so excited that you've been a part of this project - Incredible generosity. It may be a wee while before the rewards get to you, but I'll contact you all to let you know things are on their way. Similarly, the 10 people who are on the cupping sessions, will be contacted re: dates and venue (Wembley is not an option). xxxx

Thanks to everyone who's donated on day 1. Great start - although it looks like I donated to myself, monsieur Martin Kirton is round at my house and pledged on my computer, but didn't realise I was logged in. Begs the question: Do I look dodgy?
