I have attended several DefCons and I have always had a great time. This time I’ve thrown myself into it a little more than I have previously. I’ve sent off an email to Foofus and I’ve signed up for this years Coffee War at DefCon 14. For those of you who may be unfamiliar with the CoffeeWars here is some text from the site
Good news! We’ve assembled an enthusiastic team of experts to find the answer. For the seventh year in a row, we will gather at the start of DefCon to conduct CoffeeWars, the craziest and most useful competition of them all. First, we invite coffee-loving hackers to submit their favorite beans for competition. The good stuff: whole beans, unflavored, from your favorite roaster. The contest staff sets up a blind taste test with a standard set of brewing tools and methods, and our esteemed judges sample and rate each brew. We tabulate the results, and the winner is announced at the closing ceremony, with the appropriate degree of glory and spectacle.
I look forward to trying out my favourite beans to see how my local purveyor fairs.
