For the first time in Italy and on the occasion of Milan Coffee Festival 2019: Crush the Rush comes to you this weekend.

This head to head competition involves 8 teams, and 8 drinks per round, where speed, and efficiency matter. Teams will be working on the KB90, a revolutionary espresso machine launched earlier this year bringing the Straight In system into the market.

At the festival, we will occupy stand number M54 where the True Artisan Cafè runs throughout the entire 3-day event, find Spirit of Coffee, Arabi Caffè, Terrone, Filicori Zecchini, Genovese, Caffè del Borgo, Coffee Hat, Griso, Le Piantagioni del Caffè, LotZero, Young Cup Coffee, Quarta, Torrefazione Cannaregio, Rationale, Lady Cafè, Lelli Caffè, Street Coffee, and Imperator rotating on the Strada AV and Linea PB espresso machines, along with the Modbar.

Don’t miss out on the Roaster Village area dedicated to national roasters of excellence and sponsored by La Marzocco Home with the iconic Linea Mini. Also, find an interactive area with “Latte Art Live” by Modbar that houses:

  • Accademia del Caffè Espresso will speak at “The Lab”. A talk about Training – Culture – Innovation with Marta Kokosar (General Manager) and Massimo Battaglia (Head of Research); sharing research on plant intelligence and its impact with the public for the future of specialty coffee
