Simona knows ... Lukáš can do it!

Lukáš kills with a look ...

This beverage is for the audience... or not?

Not every Aeropress was good ... it seems

Tim Varney is rapping and Ben Kaminsky sings to Jiři's ears (Doubleshot CZ) ... we think ...

We love Nick Hatch from Canada, with his "Nick" T shirt and "Nick" tatoo on his chest. We could not confirm the tatoo on his chest.

Finalists ready to be shot... with cameras...

The Brits... represented by very charming Polish lady Paulina Miczka

Ben Kaminsky is tired, check out Anne Lunell from Koppi... no comment

The First Starbucks... Simona a Lukáš are enjoying some awesome music... it really was awesome... really!

My precious #1

Promo time!!! Green Plantation is a ... bla bla bla bla

Lukáš is "slaving" at the Aeropress stand at the SCAA Event in Seattle
