Your routine was randomly suggested to me on KZfaq the other day. I'm not a coffee drinker, barely a tea drinker even. But your routine was so lovely and so well spoken. It really was art in motion.

Morgan, the shaker you wanted to know the name of is a Boston shaker. The technique for opening one is to squeeze the connection; doing that will break the seal and allow the two parts to be separated. The physics of shaking a cocktail with ice is that the air in the shaker cools and therefore the air pressure in the shaker decreases. This is what forms the seal. By squeezing the connection, you allow air to enter the shaker and equalize the pressure which allows you to more easily open the shaker.

Your routine popped up in my recommended earlier today and I recognized you from social media but hadn't realized you had a channel nor your aspirations to compete in the USBC. I watched the entire routine and the whole time I was in awe of your fluidity, both in your way of speech and the way you conducted yourself. Very professional and well done !!

It's a blue cup. It's on the grey side of blue, but it's a blue cup.

I hope that collaboration with James Hoffman comes to fruition. I thoroughly enjoy both your channels.🙂

Just like many others, I recently had one of your videos recommended to me. I didn't even know barista championships were a thing. I'm not a coffee drinker and I may not "get" why brewing coffee is this big of a thing for some, but I truly admire your knowledge, your professionalism, and your presentation. You're making coffee interesting to me 😊

eye contact is so good while doing presentation, because it makes the judges feel the presenter really know what they talking about and instead of like tale-reading to them, it feels more intense like u talking personally to them. it makes u more professional and amazing. really admire u and the way u pay attention to that kind of details

Your routine really reminded me of the voice and speaking rhythm from a TED talk….it’s a compliment I swear

Yuzu is so delicious, I don't know if you've tried the Korean-style Yuzu tea you can get as almost like a marmalade consistency in a jar that you just add hot water to? I'm glad it's getting more popular as a flavour, though, it's probably my favourite citrus now.

Hi Morgan! I've been a barista for many years now.. You are so fantastic and your charisma is so addictive. Congratulations and we are all so proud of you!

I found your performance excellent, and this analysis does a great job of showing your skills and knowledge of the subject! Amazing content, as always💜

I enjoyed that walk through of your presentation very much. And that was an A++ slide as well. Love your channel!

I never knew coffee brewing is such a technical job until I saw your videos. Thanks for changing that perception.

It was a plasure to listen to your presentation! I loved it! You were so calm and explanatory while being so efficient it was great!

The contest seems to require a lot of verbal communication with the judges throughout the presentation. Obviously a disadvantage for baristas who are of the quiet, shy type.

I randomly got suggested your video of the finals you did and I got sucked in and couldn’t get out of it watched the whole thing I had no idea that even existed! You did an amazing job I was just completely in awe

It's never easy setting oneself in the mirror to learn. Thank you so much for doing so, and teaching us lots in the process

Good Luck, you were talked about on my local NPR radio station, out of Tampa, FL ---😎😎 Championship coming up

Folly Coffee Roasters has a great interview with one of the judges. He talks about what it means to be a judge and getting into the judging mindset. He also talks about the controversy over MDC as an influencer and whether or not that influenced the judges. It is a really good conversation.

Those two technical judges hovering around me that close would 100% caused me to totally mess up everything. They're so close!

This was great to watch! The typical shaker you're describing is a Boston shaker. I personally find the class+aluminum ones pretty hard to use too. The one you used is typically called a Cobbler Shaker, and they're totally fine to use too. In both cases the trick I find to dealing with "stuck" shakers is not to twist, but the squeeze! It's a little counter-intuitive, but it really helps break the seal. Anyway, best of luck at WBC!!

I didn’t know how much I enjoyed seeing you do a react video until this one! I’d love to see more reacts of other coffee videos

I love this! also hot damn that is a LOT of dialogue to remember, you smashed it! ❤❤ thank you for this video elaborating on everything

i cried watching you. Excited for your hoffman collab. My voracious consumption of his content is probably why I was recommended yours

I splurged and got some vessis, they werent kidding about the waterproofing, best, most comfortablest shoes ive had so far

To be honest, I don't drink coffee at all 😁. But I enjoy watching your videos because of you! You are a very nice lady! You connect people all over the world. Thank you very much and best regards from Kazakhstan 🇰🇿

congratulations Morgan I'm so happy for you!!!

Congrats on the official pairing with Onyx! They're the only coffee I drink. I love them

Very Interesting. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and process with us

You may have lost a point or two for not fully pressing the button to start your second pull at the same time, I hope the judges were kind and either added points (or didn't take as many away) for the flawless way that you handled the situation. No break in the rhythm of your presentation as you calmly and professionally handled the situation. If they weren't looking for it (and I'm sure they were), they would have missed it entirely.

James Hoffmann was the first coffee channel I subscribed to after trying to figure out my Aeropress. I had no idea he was a WBC or what that meant I just thought he made really solid video's and that's why i subscribed. When I first saw Morgan i thought she was just copying James as you can really see his influence on her mannerisms towards cofffee. Then I saw Morgans USBC routine and I finally realized how crazy those competition are. I subbed thinking that I had it backwards Morgan is the champion and James is the wannabe. Then I learned about the 2007 WBC lol.

I absolutely hate mushy buttons and I have no idea why they exist, every button should be hard as sapphire, require the exact same amount of force every time, and provide strong haptic feedback for activation

Hey Morgan! I appreciate your knowledge about coffee, this is self evident that you are a great barista, I looking forward to have sip of a coffee made by you someday.

i´ve been so tempted to get an origami brewer multiple times lately, and have come so close to getting one, until i remember i literally already have three v60 brewers of different sizes at home.. i really don't need one, but they are SO pretty.

I was watching this video at 1:55 am and those knocks freaked me the hell out. I thought it was near me and I was spooked! 😂 Then realised I have my earphones on with Morgan on full volume so there's no way I could hear a door knock and that comment with the timestamp helped me calm my nerves. 😅

Glad you shared your USDC final round with us. Not surprised you won based on what I saw.

as someone who is allergic to the coffee bean i really enjoyed your performance on USBC and I love watching your content!

I hope you feel better soon

you should test the Decent DE1 machine. sickest machine I've ever saw... Maybe the best machine on earth.

You did great! I'm like a proud older brother

For some reason your routine was on my suggestion, I had no interest in watching it until I did... you were amazing and it was actually really interesting, I'd love to try your coffee sometime

I watched both your presentation and the #1, and I actually preferred yours. In fact, that was how I started following you! I was not inspired to follow the other guy. Your presentation made me love the art and natural world of coffee, it was brilliant. Thanks for your delightful videos, they're like mental therapy in a crazy world!!

I'm freaking out over the potential Hoffman collab!! O M G!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

James and Morgan collab? I've been waiting for that for a while now!

Ok, now go back and watch it with the KZfaq live chat! :D The love will be immense

It's a blue cup. 100%.

I would call that cup blue as well, Morgan

After hundreds of shorts, im officially in love

Yes yes. Very good slide😂

First time hearing your voice, is really pretty. 💖

I felt second hand panic from those shots

The Rocky is gone and you have not only a Vario Plus, but also a Mahlkonig x54! Two nice upgrades for sure. Are you doing a comparison? Or, using one for brew and the other for espresso?

could you do a video about the different processes? Like natural, watched etc

That hello there intro was ❤ taken me away

"I hope you all have a nice cup of coffee." Me wathing at 2am because I have insomnia--the same situation where youtube even recommended your routine in the first place!

It's like blue expresso with grey cream on top, like cascaded. Both.

I'm not interested into coffee but I love your videos. ❤️❤️❤️

I don’t know if I’m qualified to speak on this but since I do work in the cocktail industry I might suggest if you do chose to get a regular Boston/Parisian shaker the best place to smack it is the tiny gap to the side of the seal if you smack the bigger gap it’s very hard to break the seal. Also it may be wise to incorporate a dry or reverse dry shake because you are using egg white if you want an even foamier feel.

I seriously feel the secondary anxiety watching you watching the video :D

I had no idea that coffee had an Olympics.

It is more blue than gray, I agree.

love your vids! (and i love coffee!) so this channel is a win-win! 🤎🤍

Are you using a green screen so you look like you're sitting in your kitchen, lol? 🤓😉 We were all rooting for you!! 👏👏

I hope I can perform this well for my thesis defence☺️

Morgan, please do a w60 review

I don't know if I fully agree with the docking of points for not pushing the jelly buttons that you explained perfectly well at 13:42. As a UX Designer, that 100% sounds like a reasonable contested reason to blame it on the manufacturer and not the barista. Did they have a QA group to test it? Jelly buttons is a tactile interaction but was there also no audible notification to let the barista know it was pressed? There's a reason game controllers are the material they are and not jelly. A quality QA group would be able to sus that out immediately if tested in a proper environment that simulated realitic situations.

I love how everyone sees coloir differently. I also see blue, my partner says grey 😂

There is less grey area on Morgan’s cup than there is surrounding Morgan taking the tray off stage

Idc what anyone says it's a greyish blue cup.

"You're not allowed to make fun of my cocktail shaking" One may listen to such tom-foolery, BUT I SHALL NOT

Would it be too much to ask if you could share your pourover method?

Someone is knocking on your door 17:05

Definitely blue.

At first I thought it was ice cream truck music coming from the background. Hehe

I love how she sounds the same when she is selling shoes and coffee 😂

I never knew barista competitions were a thing

Vessi is good and all, but does anyone know where she got that cup at?

Hey Morgan, I noticed something one of the floating judges reached through and tasted the coffee and was not offered water. Was that a thing?

The cup is BLUE !

I love seeing your vids their so cool. Also my name is also Graham like your partner, I j thought that was funny

Is that collaboration still coming?

Did not know their was a championship for baristas at all........kinda cool even tho I don't drink coffee

Not gonna lie, kinda thought you were going to talk about type c universal Serial buses catching on fire or smthin

the colour of the cup is Steel Blue

Maybe like once or twice a week we treat ourselves to a #MorganStyleCoffee 😊 where we get just a lil fancy for a treat 😁

So interesting

@2:32 it's blue! it is really blue!

I was the reason a rule was made at my college haha 🤣

The question is: Is Apple going to settle down and switch to USBC?

Blessed by the algorithm

What if one of the judges were allergic to eggs or something else? Do you get to know their allergies beforehand?

It is blue tho

That cup is blue i swearrr

i dont understand how the shoes are "breathable" and "100% waterproof"....

Its definitely blue

It's blue.

Morgan, do you have color blindness? I do. I feel you. Green is tough.

United States Bowling Congress?

All the masks make me sad. But you were great!
