Gimme barista Colleen Carey took her signature "shiny happy face" all the way to a bronze.
The judges only look grim because they're required to. They're actually thrilled.
Faster, faster.
Wrist wrist, elbow elbow.
The Bear Creek ski lodge was our venue.
Fifteen minutes is not a lot of time to make twelve perfect drinks.
Chris Deferio aces his cappuccino round.
The man with the clipboard is a technical judge. Respect.
Stir, sniff, taste.
That's right — they're taking notes already and they haven't even been served.
Chris Deferio was the first-ever Northeast Barista Champion. Bring on Long Beach!
