Conversation with Kent Bakke

Welcome back to the Cat & Cloud podcast! A couple of months ago Chris and our Marketing Team Leader Michael took a trip out to Seattle to hang out with La Marzocco. While there they had the chance to connect with Kent Bakke, their former CEO turned Board Member, and figured they might as well record a podcast! This week's episode is all coffee and espresso geekery; a chat between two friends about their lives in the coffee industry, and Kent’s lifelong obsession with coffee. Listen to this week's episode to hear a little coffee history from the namesake of the KB90, and the man who founded the Bakke Coffee Museum! Do you have a question you’ve been dying to ask us? Do you wanna hear us talk about it on the podcast?
