Las competencias, sobre todo el Campeonato Mundial de Baristas, son famosas por mostrar cafés exclusivos, técnicas de extracción precisas y la atención al detalle propia del café de especialidad.

Otro aspecto de las competencias suele pasar desapercibido: la hospitalidad. La forma en que un barista guía a los jueces a lo largo de su rutina, gestiona su presencia sobre el escenario y se comunica bajo presión son habilidades que se trasladan directamente a las cafeterías.

Josef Mott habló con Alica Bánszka de Rebelbean y Dominika Piotrowska, campeona de Austria de baristas, para saber más.

🇵🇭 Why is the Philippines influencing global coffee culture?

Ingredients like ube, pandan, and salted egg yolk are trending in coffee shops worldwide, attracting the attention of younger consumers seeking more globally-inspired flavours.

Liberica and excelsa coffees are also gaining popularity, with an excelsa-only coffee shop opening in San Diego.

🥶 How does extract chilling affect filter coffee?

First gaining widespread attention through the World Barista Championship several years ago, the technique has since become increasingly common among baristas looking to maximise flavour clarity and aromatic intensity in espresso.

The principle appears straightforward: cool the coffee quickly enough to minimise the loss of volatile aroma compounds.

However, recent research into the technique's applications to filter coffee suggests the approach may be more complicated than first thought.

🇭🇺 How is Hungary’s coffee market changing?

No longer confined to Budapest, a city with a deep connection to coffee, specialty coffee is spreading across the country.

According to European Coffee Trip, around 170 specialty shops and roasters now operate nationwide, and Hungary's Specialty Coffee Guide tracks businesses across some 35 cities.

Regional and international brands are also taking notice. Romania's Meron Coffee and Japan's % Arabica have both expanded into the country, signalling confidence in further growth 👉 http://www.perfectdailygrind.com/2026/06/hungary-growing-appetite-specialty-coffee

After two years of unprecedented price surges, there are signs of relief for the coffee industry. Arabica prices have been falling steadily through 2026, reaching an 18-month low in recent weeks, driven largely by expectations of a record harvest in Brazil.

Crop forecasting agency Conab projects the country's 2026 coffee harvest will climb 17% year-on-year to a record 66.7 million bags, with arabica production rising 23% to 45.77 million bags. Rabobank estimates the global coffee market could record a surplus of 7 to 10 million bags in the 2026/27 season, which could bring prices down further.

For roasters and coffee shop owners, who absorbed years of compressed margins, the timing is welcome. Some market analysts expect arabica to fall towards US$2/lb in the coming months, but risks remain. Concerns about a “super” El Niño disrupting Brazil's flowering season for the 2027/28 harvest could push prices higher.

The situation warrants cautious optimism. Supply conditions look favourable for now, but coffee has caught markets off guard before.

🇷🇴 How is Romania’s coffee market changing?

In the early 2010s, there were few specialty coffee shops in Romania. Today, there are close to 300, according to European Coffee Trip, most of them in Bucharest, Cluj-Napoca, and Brasov.

Although Romania is the smallest coffee market in the EU by per capita consumption, it's the region’s fastest-growing market in terms of outlet expansion, according to Project Café Europe 2023.

🌖 Is it profitable to extend opening hours?

With more Middle Eastern-influenced coffee shops expanding in countries like the UK and the US, other cafés may be inclined to extend their opening hours.

All-day coffee consumption, driven by Gen Z, also aligns with longer opening hours.

However, lower foot traffic could make it hard to turn a profit. Operating costs and staffing challenges can also deter café shop owners from staying open late.
