After years of pestering him to be involved in Tamper Tantrum, we managed to nab the very busy (and ever-lovable) Klaus Thompson in Seattle for a quick chat. In this SCAA short, the 2006 World Barista Champion and co-owner of the world-renowned Coffee Collective in Denmark reveals his unexpected start in coffee, how to get a sample roaster into a two bed apartment, and the ground rules upon which the Coffee Collective was founded. Also covered: old school online coffee community hangouts, developing green buying relationships in Kenya, and plans that DON'T include world domination.

This year's WBC was notable due to a distinct lack of a clipboard-bearing Julie Housh being mobbed by people with a million questions, but the 2015 BGA Past Chair was still onsite in Seattle and willing to sit down for a chat with Col. In this SCAA short, Colin and Julie discuss the relationship between BGA & BGE, what ACTUALLY happens at a barista camp, and why we shouldn't be having the current conversation about "women in coffee."

Welcome to Tamper Tantrum the lost files
Back in the summer of 2012 myself Stephen Leighton and Colin Harmon hosted a group of 12 coffee luminaries, to come present on a coffee topic of their choice at the SCAE world of coffee event in Vienna.
This was not the first time we had put on such an event, but it was the first time we didn’t have control of the AV crew for the production. The previous two events we collated a set of videos which can be viewed at Tamper Tantrum dot com. But in Vienna something went horribly wrong with the video quality we had.
Although something gets lost without the visuals I decided that instead of them being lost forever, that I would make them available in audio format.
This is number 9 in the series, please give it up for Seife Tuuloskorpi
