From Mad Lab, to Verve Coffee Roasters and Cognoscenti, the best L.A. roasters will be there. Stop by Coffeehall and Cognoscenti Coffee Roaster’s joint booth for take overs from roasters such as Two Guns, Devotion and Tailored, and head to the La Marzocco True Artisan Café for even more roaster sessions.


The Lab

Always wanted to know what it takes to make the leap from barista to coffee shop owner? International coffee legend, Barista Dritan Alsela, is taking to our Lab stage to tell all. Learn about The New Rules of Coffee with Jordan Michelman and Zac Carlson of Sprudge, who will be talking about their new bestselling book.  Don't miss Stumptown Coffee Roaster's Women in Coffee panel or Counter Culture's colonialism in coffee.
