US Barista Championship Austin Qualifying Event – Day Two Schedule

Can you believe it? We are just 30 competitors away from knowing exactly who will be going to Seattle to compete in the 2017 US Barista Championship. If you thought the Day One action was serious, then you may want to sit down for Day Two. Three–count ’em three–finalists from last year’s US Barista Championship will be competing today, all within the course of a little over an hour. Not exactly lightweights, dude.

Once the dust settles, we’ll have the top six competitors, each earning a bye into the semi-final round of the national stage taking place later on this year in April. The next 12 highest scoring baristas will also be joining them in Seattle, but they won’t have the good fortune of the bye. There they will meet the other 18 barista competitors who already earned their spots during the first qualifying event in Knoxville.

But for now, these 30 have to make it through their 10 minute routines. Here is the schedule of who will be competing at Day Two of the US Barista Championship qualifying event in Austin.
