The Situation: We booked two events for this weekend and we have to split up to be able to do them both. Michelle will be doing the O.C - our regular monthly event and I will be doing the Kite festival, a totally new event for us-uncharted territory. I will be using the trailer for the kite Festival and Michelle will be Trailer-less, relying on good old fashioned tables and stuff.
We both roped in some help for these events, Chantal will be helping me and Isandre will be with Michelle, Thanks girls :) At this very moment we are still in Stikland I am typing this from inside the trailer while michelle is doing the last of the checking and listing. Lists...... For The Win!
OCTO KITE !!!
Angry looking kite bird
We have both been a little stressed this week partly because it's the first time that we have double booked and well, we are a bit nervous. In the end when it's time to get things done we manage to make it happen, so I know that we will do fantastically. I will make a short video clip of the Kite Festival so that you guys can also check it out. The Kites they fly there are amazing and some of the pics I have seen make you wonder how the hell a kite in the shape of Cartmen can fly?
Quote From Their Page

OK, this is all I have time for today, be safe readers and most of all have fun this weekend :)
This weekend we found ourselves at the Village, it was a nice change of pace from standing in Stikland and we were ready for a good party. We planned to leave early the Friday afternoon and we actually did :) After a drive that felt like forever, taking a wrong turn and nearly overshooting the farm....., we arrived. It was around 4pm and I met Philip who showed us where we had to stand.
Our stall at night.
After a chat and a brief chill Michelle and I started with the setup. It took us about an hour or so, beer soon followed and many minutes of relaxing. Friday night was chilled, we found ourselves relaxing hard on our lumo bean bags and before we knew it we had some groovy company, that's what our chill out area is for :)
Michelle doing some kind of disco
inspired move ;)
We got to bed early and slept well after a hard days work. Saterday morning was slow and relaxed, people were starting to arrive now and the party atmosphere was gaining steady momentum. We were set up opposite the camping area so most of the day we just watched other people set up their chill sections and tents. Many new friends were made and some solid connections formed, that's what I love so much about the outdoor trance scene......people are friendly and willing to stop for a chat.

Trading was slow, very slow at a stage I thought we weren't even going to break even and then, we whipped out the smokes. Initially we weren't planning on selling cigarettes but as it turned out we had a couple of boxes in stock because we left straight from our spot in Stikland on Friday afternoon. We started out selling them at R30 a box and slowly pushed it up to R40, I know, thats ridiculous right. Surprisingly nobody really complained and I guess if I were in their position I wouldn't of either, if you want smokes you want smokes and you will pay anything for them.
I jokingly told a women that it was R70 for a box and she started counting her coins...... I kind of felt guilty about it for a little while but I knew that if it wasn't for the profit we were making on the smokes we would of made a huge loss this weekend. So cigarettes saved Morningbru at the Village and I thank all you smokers who were willing to part with your forties for a box.
The village - very awesome!
Truly a lot of hard work went into making this one of the most beautiful setups I have seen, thanks village crew.
Gernot you FUNNY owe! lol
Tjad a loyal Morningbru supporter, we found your blanket
dude ;)
Sunday was lekker hot with a light breeze bringing the coolness, by 11: am we were sold out of smokes. I guess I should of gone and bought more because we had about 3 people an hour asking for ciggies the whole of Sunday. So this weekend I learnt that we should stock up hard on smokes because it seems that no one really remembers to bring enough to a party.
Village was great and once again a learning curve, we made it out ok and managed to get enough rest before work on Monday. Today was the first week of our second month on the new spot and it feels good to know that we have been so consistent with our business venture. More posts to follow on our progress and adventures here at Morningbru. I will leave you with a little experiment I produced at the party, a four minute time lapse video of the view from our stall and some of the amazing people we met at the party...
So it has been slow here in Stikland and we are sure it must be because its the middle of the month or something. Monday was like a graveyard, then Tuesday picked up a little, Wednesday we were back to normal and today, well, I dunno, lets just say there's still time :)
MorningCAT!
On the bright side we are still doing OK. I suppose when you start doing well in your business you kind of set a bar for yourself and you naturally expect to keep doing well so that you can stay above that bar.
Then reality slaps you around a bit and you realize that things cant always go up and up, you need to fluctuate and give as much as you receive.
On a much MUCH more positive note we will be trading at The Village this weekend. Michelle and I are super keen and we cant wait to get there........... C'mon weekend!
We are still in prepping phase and hope to have tied up most of the loose ends by tonight so that we can get an early start on Friday. We don't want another Organik mission on our hands when we only get there at like 9 pm and have to stumble around in the dark. So prep plan prep plan! that's the way to do it. The last Village we traded at was epic and we really enjoyed.
Our tent is going into the operating theater today as well, stitching up the damage caused by the ferocious wind at the Heart 104.9 Fm Soccer Day. It's going to be a quick fix her up with some plain old thread and needle. Will be using some of our Village profit to send it to a proper "Tent Person" for some decent patch and repair work. We wouldn't want to see our beloved stretchy go to wreck and ruin.
Good news - Morningbru will have some new signage next week :) Vega Graphics here in Stikland have given us some great prices on a few correx sign boards that we will be using for our events and the side of the road.
I was just busy designing the PANCAKE sign when my version of Photoshop decided to totally flip out..... busy re-installing it as I type. As soon as I am done I will post up the signs to the blog.
Oh yeah! It feels like we have been here on our new spot for
ages but in fact it has only been three weeks and what an exciting three weeks
it has been, despite the dismal view, constant noise coupled with never ending wind,
we have prevailed.
From day one we knew we were better off here and now we can
confidently say that it is fact. Our daily averages have only risen since we
started in Stikland and the future is looking brighter by the day. Morningbru
is quickly turning into a sandwich style Deli and the Stikland population are
loving it. At the moment we stock: Tuna Salad R14, Egg Mayo R12, Cheese Tomato
R12 and our latest edition Brie peppadew cucumber R14. All our sandwiches are made
freshly in the morning with Duens health seed loaf, wich is prety damn tasty. Can
ya say, OM nOMnOMnOm!
If any of you, our readers, have any more ideas for health
sandwiches please feel free to leave your recipes in the comments section. J We want to add at
least one new sandwich a week to see how they are received by our customers
here. Any suggestions would be groovy.
Events we have planned for next weekend and beyond so far are as follows, The Village, Kite
Festival, O.C Lan Party, Groovy Troopers (pending) and Noisy Radicals. We are
trying to secure one or two more but we will have to see, I don’t want to die
in the pursuit of work here hahaha Nah ! it’s not that bad.
So we are amped and
excited for this next two months and we plan to bring our grooviness to an
event near you Soon! Be sure to look out for us and drop by for a chat.
In other news I am finally getting my HTC phone fixed so we
will be able to take better quality pics and video for a while, sorry Michelle
I know the blackberry was doing it for now but let’s face it, it’s camera
really SUX! Anyway just a quick post to keep you in the loop.
Last weekend we were contracted by Heart 104.9 FM for a
soccer day event. We weren’t expecting it at all, they surprised us both by calling last minute – we didn’t hesitate and snatched up the opportunity. It all
went very smoothly and we were received very well by all who attended, coffees were
flying and so were our fresh pancakes, banana caramel was a winner with the
sweet toothed crowd and we were flipping pancakes as fast as they could eat them.
We didn’t really know what we were in for and weren’t expecting much from this
one but it all turned out to be a fun filled soccer fest of a day.
Celebrities
of all sorts were there too, like soccer players from Santos and other clubs, some
foreign soccer players, T.V personalities and idols people. Don’t ask me to
name them because I really, really have no clue as to who they were. We were serving
celebrities and we didn’t even know it hahaha. Michelle had a fat chat with the
guy from Top Billing and only found out afterward it was a shleb lol. Anyhow,
it was a good event and we did well.
The only negative thing about the event was the wind. Damn!
It blew hard, it actually blew our stretch tent poles right through our tent L leaving two gaping
holes in it. Cups and coffee pots also found themselves doing involuntary flips
off of the table and not to mention the sugar tubes and stirrers going awol
with every gust. If you were to look at us from a distance it would have been a
mixture of serving people, flipping pancakes and catching things J
Some Soccer Celeb's (Santos)
I suppose every war
has its casualties and in this case it was our beloved blue stretchy. No
worries, nothing a needle, patches and thread won’t fix. Heart FM wants to use us again J so we will be doing
the 17’th annual kite festival in Muizenberg on the 22 Oct to the 23 Oct which
is great news because that specific event pulls between 20 000 to
25 000 people annually over two days, we will only be doing pancakes
because one of their main sponsors do all hot drink related products. This is
fine with Morningbru .....
Pancake Station
Week 3 in our new spot and we are doing great; our regular
base is growing by the day. Coffee though, is not as popular as we would like
it to be but the pancakes and sandwiches are doing very well. I am sure once we
get an espresso machine and start doing proper cappuccinos and lattes we will
gain more popularity with the offices in the area.
Our Setup, Struggling Against The Vicious Wind
We are thinking of a little
slogan to add to the Morningbru brand and so far it looks like we will be going
with “making coffee personal again” or just “making coffee personal” We think it is great because you don’t often
get personal coffee in industrial areas, it is always a garage with a vending
machine or something. It is impersonal ---- put in money, get your drink, no time
for talking or anything just give and get. I guess with the fast paced lives we
are living convenience and speed of delivery is everything and I know many
people might prefer this way but I myself would much rather opt in for
something a little more personal...... A machine can give no love, yet. J
Week two on our new spot and it is going really well, pancakes are taking off man, we have a few regulars and many new faces rocking up everyday. People are digging the stall vibe and we are making new connections by the minute. We have really kicked our turnover up by 100% and we are grateful beyond.
I am pritty tired as i type this so excuuse any spellingk mistkes and stuff, we have been working straight from 5 am this morning until now, 10 pm and we are still busy, eish! I guess that is what it means to run your own business in this kind of industry but hey I'm not complaining, it's great!
Heart radio booked us on short notice for a soccer event tomorrow so we barely had time to prep up, which means we are still busy, busy, busy. Michelle is in the kitchen mixing up pancake batter like a beast and I have taken a break to blog for a minute. The bakkie is packed up and reasonably ready for tomorrow. I can see Red bulls in our near future, at least 4 each. We are super keen to serve all the attendees hot coffee and pancakes, lets hope we have a successful and most of all groovy day at the event.
Anyway I better get back to work before I get an egg or a wooden spoon to the back of my head.
It has
been a busy week following Organik and the universe has compressed us into a new spot
Industrial Life
As you know
we didn’t do very well with our sales at the party this last weekend and well,
we wanted to get rid of at least some of the left over stock. Back home we
organised that we could stand in a business park in Stikland to sell some
pancakes and coffee. The plan was to go to the strip first, supply our regulars,
pack up at 12pm and move to the next spot to sell our pancake mix.
Samitches!
It was alien
to be standing in a business area and it felt very different from what we were
used to. Very busy roads, people driving pretty fast and our view has totally
changed instead of trees we now have buildings and concrete :( Our first
afternoon was great though and we turned over in one afternoon what we would
have turned in one week on the strip. “Excited” is the first word that comes to
my mind when I think of that first day on the new spot.
Pre-order Line
Regretfully we had a
hard decision to make after work, leave the strip (that we have come to love)
or continue to split our days in two. Taking into account how hard we fought for permission to
stand on the strip I was a little reluctant to just let it go, but in the
bigger scheme of things it is all about your location and the fact that we can
now trade more than just coffee is appealing to us. We both decided that it
would be in the best interest of Morningbru to relocate. With a mixture of relief,
sadness and excitement we started planning our next day in Stikland Business
park.
New Spot
We open up shop at 7am and end our trading day at 3:30pm, we
also got one of those new NeoTel handsets for business. We have been giving
people our number so that they can pre-order pancakes for their office. The
other day we got a R80 order and a R60 one, so this concept is going to work,
day 6 and we are feeling good about our decision.
Enjoying Some Coffee...........AGAIN :)
The new spot definitely has
it’s perks, for one, my parents own a pub right around the corner called Annies
Ladies bar, drinks after work maybe J
They allow us to use it as a headquarters for Morningbru which means that we
can “bru” our coffee right there in the morning, mix batter, make sandwiches
and have storage space. In fact as I type this I am sitting in the bar while
michelle is selling pancakes and coffee a mere 200 metres away. So I can have
time to do my other work, which revolves purely around the internet and my
laptop. If michelle needs anything she just gives me a call...... eg. Michelle
calls for another pot of coffee or a couple of sandwiches, I then make it and trot
down to her with some needed stock. This setup is great because it allows us to
split up our time to be more productive.
It is our sixth day in the new spot now and it is going
well, we are doing better than we would have on the strip and people are getting
to know us and starting to enjoy our pancakes, banana caramel and cinnamon
sugar for now. Goodbye Strip we now consider you our runway, the gravel that started it all.
Yeah, so that’s what’s been happening here at Morningbru. We
are moving forward and we are amped.
Our first outdoor for the season was Organik Gaian Dreams, we planned, prepped and double checked, it was an absolute awesome party, the vibe was great and we both felt that it was what a party should be --- Connected, vibey and energetic!
The setup.
We arrived the Friday night after a long and slightly stressful drive, the trailer, man, it jumps around on the road and looks like it wants to tip over a lot. Every time I looked in the review mirror my heart skipped a beat, eventually I just kept it at 60 kay's an hour and stopped looking.
I reckoned it was pointless stressing out about it and if it was going to tip it was going to tip. We managed to get there in one piece and were thankful that we found the venue quite easily and that the trailer was still with us.
Our plan was to get there the Friday afternoon set up and relax but as it turned out we got there after dark and well, its not easy to set up a stretch tent at night. We got the trailer in position pulled out the stretchy offloaded the bakkie made some mojitos and decided to call it a night. The cold was intense but luckily we had plenty warm clothes, blankets, a mattress and each other to keep warm. We slept in the trailer the first night ---- it was surprisingly comfortable.
Saturday morning 7 A.M we got up and started sorting out the setup, by now the Sun was out and we were soaking up the heat ray's with much appreciation. I sorted out the stretch tent while Michelle handled the coffee machine and made more mojitos.
Making use of the chill out area.
Our mission with our setup was to provide a groovy chill out section next to our stall so that we could offer something more to our peers than just coffee, hot chocolate and crepes (pancakes).
Our chill zone was a great success. We had a good mix of interesting and beautiful people coming and going at all hours and parking off on our beanbags and beetle seat to rest their weary legs, take a break from the sun and, eventually, get shelter from the rain.
We had mojitos for breakfast and beer for brunch, alcohol is useful when you are working at an outdoor event or any event where you know you won't be sleeping much, it helps to keep your energy levels up. By the time the beats started we were ready to trade and knew that we were going to have a great time.
Nightfall came and with it the cold, oh it was cold! Every hour that passed it just got colder and colder. Of course with it being so cold our hot drinks were selling and we were more than happy to serve it up to the happy trancers. Business was slow but it was ticking nicely. By 3 a.m though we weren't selling much at all and the weather was taking it's toll on us.
Service
I decided to make a B-Line for the jumbo sized green bean bag we got for the party and wrapped myself in a sleeping bag. Michelle joined me soon after and we started generating some much needed heat.
We decided to close up for a while and slowly drifted off into dream land. It was a warm trance induced coma that felt like an eternity of phat fluffy bass. 3 hours later I woke up with the energy of at least one racehorse and I was ready for Sunday, especially the sun part.
Our party affirmation.
I got Michelle up and made her something hot to drink. We could see light now and knew it wouldn't be long before the sun was out in full force, ready to warm up the party again. I cracked a beer for breakfast and started brewing a new pot of coffee goodness, it wasn't long before we had our first coffee lovers at our hatch. A small rush ensued and coffees were flying out of the trailer. Happiness is a cup of hot caffeine in your cold blue hands.
The toilets had eaten enough crap for one weekend. :)
The first half of the day was warm and sunny and then - - - It started raining, nay, pouring. We packed up at about 4pm and hung around till 5, by this time the music had stopped and most of the party people had already driven off. We hitched up the trailer, tied down the poles and drove off silently into the farmlands. The drive home was tiresome and long but we made it home safely. The party was great and although we didn't make much cash it was well worth all the effort.
We made some great connections, met lots of beautiful people and left with residual feelings of warmth and connectedness that we hope will continue to affect our daily dealings with our customers.
Organik - Gaian Dreams was definitely one for the books!!!
We took some video --- I put together a little movie for you guys to watch, enjoy.
Wow it has been an intense week of organizing and prepping for our event this weekend. Organik is going to rock and we are going to be there serving hot coffee and delicious pancakes. Our pancakes have been tried and tested by us of course, many pancakes have been eaten this week.
The final four are Banana Caramel, Strawberries and Cream, Cinnamon Sugar and Hummus, Cheddar and Spinach. If you are coming this weekend be sure to stop by for a tasty pancake ala Morningbru.
This week on the strip has also been great and we have sold a total of 35 cups. That is a six cup improvement on last week bringing our average cup per day to 7. Eventually we want to be at around 30 - 40 cups a day and if we keep on improving at this rate we will get there sooner than later.
Anyway I really had to squeeze this post in today, we are sooo busy running around tying up loose ends for this weekend. Wish us luck and have a awesome weekend.
Monday has come and gone - 6 cups sold, 5 new customers and one comeback. Good signs. Pancake man didn't show up today, this is strange as he is always there, like everyday besides Sunday. What can you say the man loves making them pancakes ;)
We were soul alone on the strip and it kinda felt weird, almost scary. A tazer is now on the priority list in case, you know, someone tries to jack our stash when we are alone on the strip. Hoping the pancake man will be back tomorrow, I need my breakfast :)
I will service your coffee needs
Happy customers at the top and me serving some more on the left. Thank you for the support :) good times. These pics are a bit fuzzy - using a blackberry curve o.O --- My camera got broken _*sadface....
Trailer---Shiny
So as you can see we have changed the way we position the trailer, it's at more of an angle and closer to the Pancake man, we will post more pics so that you can see the full effect.
It creates a more sociable vibe because the people that come and buy pancakes can glance right over into our trailer. It is also better because it is further away from the road and less noisy.
Michelle and trailer
Before we were kind of cut off and all people could see was our backdoor, not good for business I say.
Notice the sign, it says ----FILTER COFFEE / HOT CHOCOLATE --- straight forward and simple. We think it has been working for us, gaining new customers everyday.
setup
Me enjoying my first cup
Working stuff out
The new spot is also very shaded which will help heaps on those hot day's. Cant wait for summer to kick in so that we can try selling Ice cold Juice, Lemonade and Water.
K - that's it for the post, hope to see some of you at Morningbru sometime soon.
Eagerly looking forward to this coming week to see how many cups we get sold on the strip. Last week stands at 29 cups sold, let's see if we can better that in the next couple of day's.
Michelle and I had a totally productive weekend preparing for Organik. Stretch tent is fixed and gas appliances are ready for work. Oh yeah.
I'm sipping on some of our coffee right now, it inspired me to post something on the blog. Well done to the Springboks for their victory today. I trust you all enjoyed the match. :)
Sold a total of 29 cups of liquid heaven this week on the strip, meaning we are averaging 5.8 cups a day at the moment. It has been an interesting and productive couple of day's and we are looking forward to Monday so that we can do it all over again.
Hopefully cigarettes will be on the menu in the near future, still trying to get wholesale prices so that we can offer packs cheap! cheap! We want feet at our stall, what better way to get it than with a highly addictive drug o.O
Going to be a hectic week as we are preparing for Organik (Outdoor Trance Party) - We have some yummy treats for all the happy stompers :) Super awesome Hot Chocolate (with marshmallows), strong Filter Coffee, sweet treats and a chill out area under our stretch tent. If you going to be at Organik I hope you drop by and come say hi.
Looking forward guys, have a safe and groovy weekend.
Welcome back winter :) - weather served us well today. With the cold comes the need for hot drinks, sold twelve cups today and we are hoping to better it tomorrow. Feels great to have the permit and to be legal on the strip, where are the coppers now?
Morningbru bounced back after two days of only two cups a day :( --- rocking some new signage outside the trailer that are letting people know what we are doing on the side of the road.
We are not looking half bad for our fourth day back on the strip. Thank you all for the support and positive feedback.
New menu items to look forward to in the coming weeks
Cigarettes (not the healthiest option but hey, people want em!)
Mineral water (Ice Cold for those hot days)
Juice (various flavors)
Thinking of fresh lemonade, once we gather a following.
Slowly we are getting back into a steady routine and I am sooooo happy, damn it feels good to get up early, squeezing the most out of the day.
I hope all of you are having a great week so far and if you aren't, well, come have a cup of coffee we are always smiling even when the sales aren't there. Amandel Rylaan Next to the pancake man (Eddie) DO IT!!!
This morning was truly like a blast from the past, getting up nice and early brewing some coffee and heading out to the strip. We arrived just after seven with the hopes of selling at least two cups of coffee goodness for our first day back. We realized that we are basically starting from scratch here and it will take time before we can reach the numbers we want.
Today we sold six cups in total and we are totally happy with that. Tomorrow will be even better, well, I hope it will, one guy told us that he was wondering where we went, another pulled out of heavy traffic and chilled with his coffee until the traffic had cleared up. If you ask me that guy was smart, traffic was heavy this morning.
The large cups are working out for us, only one person actually bought a small coffee. The large cup looks impressive and totally kicks the smaller cups ass. If I wanted a cup of coffee I would take the large, no doubt. Morningbru is set to take off and we are excited about so many things at the moment.
I am aching to get a espresso machine so that we can start making all the good stuff. Of course we do need a generator first before we can even think of espresso and that sort of thing, in time I am sure we will get there. Loyalty cards are in the works, so soon you will be able to buy five coffees and get your sixth one free. Once we reach twenty to thirty cups a day we will launch the loyalty card special.
We are back and we are ready to sell some coffee :)
It was a hectic and busy day yesterday, lots of driving - a little road rage!(TAXI) and a permit acquired.
Yes people, you read that correctly, we are now fully legal to trade on the strip. Shirley Alexander was very helpful in the end and wished us well with the business.
Thank you Shirley, at times I wanted to come and blow up your offices out of frustration but patience has paid off and things are back on track.
The Vending Licence!
Apparently Shirley had a meeting with all the vendors on the strip to decide our fate and they had only good things to say, hence us getting approved for the permit.
So much politics o.O ---- but hey I'm not complaining anymore. Woohooo!
So if you don't know, that is what a vending licence looks like. I like the yellow edges. hehehe
The Elusive Permit
This is the permit.. It is only valid for six months before we have to renew it. But hey, at least we finally have it now. Good Lord we were losing hope. So there it is guys we are sorted and ready.
Stay tuned for our August O.C post!
Sadly the September O.C has been cancelled
:( BEEEEG SAD MOUTH!
Gives us a month off to change our strategy a little I guess.
The O.C will be back in October and we will be there ready for business.
Tomorrow at 11 O'clock we will be going to see Shirley Alexander, hopefully all our things are in order and we can get our permit on the spot. Very excited, if all goes well we will be back on the strip this coming Monday. A post will be up after our meeting, we might even sneak in a few pics of the process.
Permit happy face!
So much are in the works for Morningbru and we are feeling uber positive about the business. If you happen to be in the area please come by and support us by buying a fresh cuppa, we make good coffee ;)
Good news - Meeting up with Shirley Alexander on Friday morning to finalize the permit issue. So next week Monday we will be back in operation .... :) Our cup size has increased to 350 ml for R10.00.... and a 250ml for R8.00. Hope to see a few familiar faces on the strip next week.
The August O.C was amazing and a more detailed post will follow soonest. Have a great day and drink some coffee!
July O.C is upon us, we are excited to do yet another O.C event and we hope it will be a smoother ride than the last one. We are gonna rock the lan with bigger cups, tasty treats and our usual vibe of pure awesomeness. I hope all you lanners, leechers and magic players are thirsty for the good stuff.
We have solved the trailers "rocking issue" - the poor trailer was never really as stable as it could be. Two jacks have sorted it out though so we can say goodbye to sea sickness when working....hahaha. Our urn broke a while back but it is all fixed up and ready for work ----- will be using it to keep the hot chocolate hot and ready. The second urn will be used for hot water which will be available for free to all the lanners that need some.
The permit should be processed in the next month so we will be on the strip again, I can't wait it has been a long and drawn out process and finally we are getting some feedback from the authorities. Let's just hope that they keep their word and do what they said they are going to do. :/
The blog has reached 1200 views thanks guys. Once we get busy on the strip again I will have more to post about and we can really get this blog going. At the moment though Morningbru is struggling a little to survive, so we don't really have much to post but thanks to the O.C we will make it out alive. We have also gotten some feedback from a few trance parties --- excited for those. Morningbru will see you at an outdoor party this season!
Well we have to get back to preparations for this weekend --
Hey all you happy readers :) we have reached 900 views since the blog has started... so thank you all very much for the ongoing support and clicks, catch us at an event soon.....
We have started preparing for the next O.C event which will be taking place on the last weekend of July. We are hoping to make a bigger impact than last time. Larger cups (350 ml) will be available and, of course our legendary chocolate brownies will be there too. In other news we have started looking at some trance parties that are coming up. We would like to get into as many as possible for the coming outdoor season.
Morningbru has decided to create our own coffee blend so we will be leaving LavAzza behind us. We really like the blend we are going to be using. It is similar in taste with a slightly richer and fuller body.
