Barista

by



Five top baristas find themselves pushing the limits of coffee perfection to win the National Barista Championship – a surreal competition where even one mistake is far too many. Once a year, thousands of baristas square off in competitions around the U.S., but only one will become the National Champion. ”Barista” takes the viewer on a humorous, emotional and enlightening look into the unimaginable world of coffee competitions and the passionate, lovable and quirky characters that devote their lives to them. If you think you know coffee – this film will make you think twice. These baristas take this universally beloved beverage seriously. Their passion for it can be felt through every frame of the film. ”Barista” will take you beyond the drink and shine a light on a unique world very few of us ever knew existed.

  4. 39:00 I have drank so much coffee that I have actually developed an allergic reaction to it. That said i still drink coffee, but always keep a bottle of water on hand.
    He says that what you want is bitterness. Well that is not the case for me. I find that I want more than a medium amount of flavour(above average slightly on the dark side for boldness) with a very mild bitter grab throughout the sip. And it has to be accomplished without a sweetener weighing it down.
    Maybe that is why he is no. 2 He does not see everyone has different tastes.

    @47:00 oh yeah man the dream is dead. You would actually be better off finding a real to life mafia to get a loan than to go through the banking system that exists today. Today's banking system that gets free money printed by uncle scam daily will give you loan scam. Then scam you into another 40 percent of the original scam that was already profitable to them. And if you agree to the new scam will come out with 15 percent more of a scam. If you agree to that scam. All the sudden they come back with an extra 10 percent on top of that scam. And before you know you are paying 30,000 for a 10,000 dollar loan. Now if only you agree to this scam can we finance you.

    Walk away. Go find a mafia or drug lord. And get a loan from them. Not only will you pay far less in the end. They offer private security todays bankers do not.

  13. I actually paid to see this crap on Amazon a few years ago. It was a waste of money. Typical slow-paced indy documentary that was more on form and execution than substance. I found the characters pretentious and achingly self-absorbed. it's just coffee for crying out loud. I couldn't finish the thing when I paid for it (like a bad, bitter cup of coffee!) I learned very little about coffee and more than I cared to about this unusual scene surrounding the construction of a coffee beverage. To be honest, this film made me think twice about paying high prices for a cup of joe. I don't think I've set foot in a coffee shop since I saw this ridiculous film.
