The Coffee Sprudgecast: US Brewers Cup Champs Kaley Gann and Rose Woodard

By March 30, 2019 News

We’re back in Kansas City for part two of our special SprudgeLive Coffee Sprudgecast series. These episodes will take you to the event floor at the 2019 US Coffee Championships in Kansas City. There we join multimedia director Elizabeth Chai, who—in addition to helming our must-follow Instagram coverage of the event—taped a series of original interviews for this week’s episode of the podcast.

In this episode, Chai talks to 2018 United States Brewers Cup Champion Rose Woodard. Woodard used the final three minutes of her routine to call for equality and fairness for all competitors. “The standards these competitors are held to are that of a white, male, heteronormative perspective,” Woodard told the judges. “That’s a major issue that needs to change before we can make progress in this industry.” Read more about this routine here.

Chai then interviews 2019 United States Brewers Cup Champion Kaley Gann (Messenger Coffee). Chai spoke with Gann on finals day—moments before learning she’d become this year’s champion. Gann will compete in Boston at the World Brewers Cup Championship in a few short weeks.
