Coffeefest Orlando Recap EP:28

Trends, Takeaways & What We're Changing in Our Cafes In this episode we're recapping CoffeeFest Orlando – what actually mattered for café owners, what felt overhyped, and what we're going to do differently in our own shops because of it. We talk through: The booths & brands that stood out (hello Florida Coffee Culture + functional drinks 👀) New milks & "health" products that are cool but not always realistic for a single-location shop Why location still beats social media virality for most cafés The push toward $7 average tickets and how to do it without feeling gross Paying baristas fairly, keeping good people longer, and what's next for cafés in 2026   👇 Helpful links • Try our premium Origin Stories coffee subscription: https://friedrichscoffee.com/product/... • Wholesale coffee for cafés: https://friedrichscoffee.com/wholesale/ • Our café app / order ahead: https://friedrichscoffee.com/order/ • Podcast on Spotify/Apple:https://podcasts.apple.com/de/podcast...
