NEW YORK CITY, USA – Slayer will be the official sponsor of the Coffee Masters tournament at this year’s New York Coffee Festival in NYC. The official machine of the competition will be Slayer’s own barista dream machine, the Steam LP. During the tournament, some of the world’s top baristas will be able to harness the tools of pressure profiling with quick adjustment and calibration, along with the ability to “record” and “play back” recipes, to carry them through this high energy competition.
Slayer will have a booth adjacent to the competition stage, Booth A19. Guests can come experience the Steam LP up close, have a chance to taste coffee from the Coffee Masters competitors, and talk shop with Slayer’s team.
Coffee from Black Fox Coffee Co., Nguyen Coffee Supply, and Coffee Project NY will be featured at the Slayer booth. While in New York, Slayer espresso machines can be found across the city at % Arabica (20 Old Fulton St, Brooklyn), Drip Coffee Makers (100 Henry Street, Brooklyn Clark Street Station), Buddies Coffee (150 Grand Street, Brooklyn), and East One Coffee (170 W 23rd, NYC + 384 Court St, Brooklyn).
Slayer looks forward to interacting with coffee lovers and professionals alike during the festival.
