2009 Beresta champion Gwilym Davies Beijing trip

At 9: 00 a. M. on July 4, Gwilym Davies met with coffee colleagues in Beijing at the Kangyuan Riting Hotel in Beijing. The event was launched by Nuova Simonelli to celebrate the 10 years since the Nuova Simonelli coffee machine entered China. The event in Beijing is hosted by Dachang DKSH Commercial (China) Co., Ltd. In addition to the product presentation meeting of Nuova Simonelli (speaker: Ms. Nuova Simonelli China Office Manager), the most impressive thing is Nuova Simonelli's SIS system. As Barista, we certainly pay more attention to the 2009 world champion Gwilym Davies's understanding of coffee.

Gwilym Davies, who is still jet lagged, shares his analysis of the elements of a good cup of coffee with us, though he looks tired and approachable.

Before the event starts, Gwilym is preparing coffee mill, coffee beans, coffee cups, coffee makers, and even blind bowls for cleaning.

Espresso time 35s, using the portable electronic weighing, Espresso liquid weight 35g, using double powder, actually get two cups of Ristretto. The coffee beans were sent from Shanghai. I didn't see the packaging, but it was obvious that this cup of coffee from Gwilym came back.

Today Gwilym's Cappuccino made two patterns, peach hearts and tulips.

After Gwilym gave a brief account of the details he should pay attention to making a good cup of coffee, question time Fisher asked three questions.

The idea of creative coffee in 2009. Gwilym says he wants creative coffee to be creative and fun. If it's not enough to have new ideas, good taste is the point.

2. About the freshness of coffee beans. Gwilym replied that the coffee that is too fresh does not look good and tastes bad in Espresso, but if it is not fresh enough, the flavor of the coffee beans will be gone, so he prepared the coffee beans eight days before the competition. But the time for different coffee beans is different, and his coffee beans are usually in 8-12 days.

3. What do you think is the most important thing to get good grades in the competition? Gwilym said that the game is actually a game. James (2007 champion), Stephen (2008 champion), Gwilym (2009 champion), their three good friends all have some common characteristics when they take part in the competition, they don't go to win. It's dangerous if you go to the game to win. The most important thing in the game is TO BE YOURSELF (be yourself). It sounds simple, but that's the hardest part.

A precious photo-from left: 2011 Chinese Brista champion Tang Tianchao, 2009 world Beresta champion Gwilym Davies, 2005 Chinese Beresta champion Wang Pei. Originally, the 2008 Chinese Beresta champion Mu Feng was also coming today, but it turned out to be in the afternoon.

Stephen in the 2008 final video has been watched by everyone, I think he is a naughty big boy, if in China we can call him naughty little fat boy. Gwilym, who was born in'67, also has a childish side. When taking a group photo, he watched for a long time at the bar and asked me to hold the milk jar and take a cup by myself, so I had the group photo below.
