Espresso Making Education DVD

This June Bellissimo Coffee InfoGroup will release a DVD called "Training with the Champions". The DVD was made over a year at the American Barista & Coffee School in Portland, Oregon and is the first training DVD in which regional, national and world barista champions share their passion and skills one-on-one with the coffee world.

Sounds like it could be a good buy.
