2015 US Barista Championship Semi-Finals Schedule

From an at large Round One of 24, six baristas have advanced to Semi-Finals Saturday at the 2015 United States Barista Championship. They join a pool of 12 waiting baristas, each one a regional champion or regional runner up who earned a bye by virtue of their USBC regional cycle performance. That leaves us with 18 baristas total on Semi-Finals Saturday. Ugh, math!

Let’s meet all 18. All times PST.
