This Friday at 2pm (CST) special guest JC Hutchins join us on the show. It’s been over 2 years since JC has been with us and we are excited to have him back to talk about his new book release, 7th Son, and coffee of course!
We’ll get a chance to catch up on the book news and discover what kind of coffee fueled this project. We guarantee you’ve never heard JC talk about his book this way before! This will be a live show and you are welcome to call in and join the fun.
We are finally getting back together with Dustin Butler of Forrest Blends LLC to award our lucky contest winner, Michael Madison. We’ll be on BlogTalk Radio for a tasting of that famously delicious Bantai Civet coffee.
Raise those pinky fingers & join us tomorrow morning at 9:30am (CST) for a live show on location at San Antonio Coffee Roasters.

This summer in San Antonio we are experiencing a drought and continuous weeks of 100+ degrees. It’s hot & as much as I love, LOVE, my hot coffee it’s been difficult to enjoy my afternoon Cup o Joe the past month.
So I started looking into Cold Coffee Brewing Systems and now I face a completely different dilemma.
First of all, do I really want another type of coffee maker on the counter? While some of the cold brew systems look really cool (I’d buy just ’cause they’re pretty) you can actually recreate the process for cold brew with a regular pitcher, spoon and strainer.
Second, will I be able to look forward to my afternoon Joe with that same warm fuzzy feeling?
But the biggest challenge I am having with Cold Brew Coffee is that it takes about 9 to 12 hours to brew!!! How am I suppose to function with that kind of turn around?
Today we draw the winner that will join us for a coffee tasting at What’s Brewing. This lucky Morning BrewCast listener will discover what $320/lb coffee tastes like as we sample Bantai Civet Coffee. A special hat tip to Susan Price of Firecat Studio who picked the winner, Michael Madison.
Want to be a part of the coffee tasting? Then check out the live video stream on Ustream.tv of the coffee tasting. Join us for some high dollar coffee fun!
The Coffee Gals have a special treat for our listeners. We are pleased to interview Dustin Butler of Bantai Civet Coffee. Dustin shares the story behind the coffee that costs $320 lb. Commonly called “weasel poop” coffee, the real story behind the Bantai Civet Coffee is one of conservation of land, endangered species and successful farming for native tribes. Everyone wins in this story, especially coffee aficionados.
When Dustin was kind enough to donate a 4oz batch of this premium and high priced blend to the Morning BrewCast an idea was born. We knew we would have to record a live tasting of the Bantai Civet Coffee, so why not invite one of our listeners to join us for this special treat? We devised a way to make this both a fun experience as well as one that could benefit the Julia Campbell Memorial Park where the coffee is grown and “harvested”.
Win the chance to be on the Morning BrewCast when we try the Bantai Civet Coffee with Dustin Butler at What’s Brewing in San Antonio, TX.
For every Ten Dollar donation receive an entry for the opportunity to sit down and have a cup or two of the Bantai Civet Coffee (aka weasel poop coffee). Donations will be sent directly to the Julia Campbell Memorial Park where the coffee is “produced”. Winner will be announced Wednesday, June 3rd. Out of town winners will have coffee shipped to them and will be Skyped in for the tasting on Saturday.
