Barista Group
Joe established Barista Group at the beginning of 2017. The name was inspired by the fact that at the heart of each member of our group is a passion for making great coffee, which is exactly what the myriad of baristas around the world do day-in, day-out.
Barista Group aims to share products with a broad group of baristas, and in turn meet the needs of consumers in Australia’s ever-growing café culture.
Our Team
Barista Group is made up of a team of likeminded professionals with a common curiosity to explore and discover state-of-the-art products, working together to make these dynamic tools available to the coffee industry.
