In the past we have hosted Maxwell Colonna-Dashwood (UK), Lem Butler (USA), Ben Weiner (Nicaragua), Tesfaye Degaga (Ethiopia), Trish Rothgeb (USA), Stefaan Esprit (Belgium) and Colin Harmon (Ireland) to add their insights from a global perspective. This year we have some exciting collaborations lined up!

The 4th year of SA's only National roasting competition is in progress! We went digital in its 3rd year, with Father Coffee (JHB) taking the crown. We are thrilled that we will be able to have Finals in-person at CCW 2021. The discussions around the competition are always incredibly enlightening. See all the Roasters who have entered in this years competition.

With cuppings from our sponsors Sevenoaks Trading and Speciality Coffee Exchange we are able to taste coffees multiple times a day. And you can even do this from the comfort of your own home. So much deliciousness ahead.

In 2021 we will have an exciting line up of coffees on the Brew Bar. Which beautiful espresso machine will take pride of place? We're excited for you to find out!

In 2019, coffee was poured on a beautiful Sanremo F18 and food delivered by Glenwood Bakery and Fudart. Beer was on tap from Jack Black. The best networking happens in the moments inbetween.

We are committed to broadening education and uplifting the baristas in this ever-growing industry. With our partners, the Barista Wage Calculator has been in production and was officially launched this year! We can make it better together.

Creative Coffee Week will host the finals of the SA AeroPress Championship to determine who will compete in the World AeroPress Champs 2021! We're looking for a roasting partner currently!
