Brewers Cup Championship

The World Brewers Cup is a manual coffee brewing competition. It aims to promote excellence in manual brewing and to highlight the diversity of coffee flavors and brewing techniques.

  • The competition focuses on pour-over, immersion, and batch brewing methods.
  • Competitors are judged on the taste, aroma, and balance of their brewed coffee, as well as their technical skills and presentation.
  • The competition consists of three rounds: preliminary, semi-finals, and finals.
  • Judges evaluate the coffee using the SCA’s Cupping Form

Here is a summary of the past results for Canadian competitors at the World Brewers Cup:

  • In 2012 Anthony Benda placed 4th
