Join the Journey, Live from Rotterdam

Join the Journey, Live from Rotterdam

The grinders keep spinning, the squad keeps roaring. Let’s bring Milan home!

While Zjevaun fires up his imagination in Milan, the grinders back home are running full speed. The shop on Mariniersweg is alive, filled with the sound of beans cracking, milk steaming, and people gathering to cheer on our very own Ripsnorter.

If you can’t be there in Milan, don’t worry, we’re bringing it to you.
On October 18 at 9:52 AM, we’ll stream Zjevaun’s first World Barista Championship run live in the shop. It’s the moment he’s been training for, years of craft, discipline, and curiosity coming together on stage. Every move, every pour, every detail sparked by imagination.

Pull up a chair, grab your favorite brew, and feel the energy ripple from Milan to Rotterdam. This isn’t just a watch party, it’s a celebration of what imagination can do when it meets precision, passion, and a little bit of madness.

And if (no, when) he makes it through, we’ll do it again.
Join us on October 19 for the semifinals, and if he reaches the big one, the finals on October 20. We’ll be there, screens on, grinders spinning, hearts pounding.

On October 21, the winner of the World Barista Championship will be announced. Whatever the outcome, we’re proud beyond words. This journey isn’t only about one person, it’s about everyone who’s part of Ripsnorter. Everyone who believes that great coffee begins with curiosity and imagination.

So come join the squad. Bring your friends. Sip, shout, cheer, and feel the buzz.
And if you can’t make it to the shop, keep an eye on our Instagram where we’ll share updates, behind-the-scenes moments, and a few ripper surprises along the way.

Because this isn’t just a competition.
It’s a story.
And every story’s a ripper.
