This is Punk, the cat who broke into my house and decided to stay. She enjoys making noise, Hatsune Miku, and cuddles. Especially cuddles. There's no such thing as enough cuddles.

I'm part owner and roaster at a little coffee company in Wisconsin. Author of Typica, a popular free program used to capture and work with coffee roasting production records that's used at roasting companies all over the world. Volunteer on the Roasters Guild education committee. Available for paid coffee consulting, training, open source software development. Living with a cat who broke into my house and decided to stay. Likes: cute, travel, food. Dislikes: blinking lights.

What would Typica look like if it were built into the control panel of a coffee roaster? Probably quite a bit different both visually and architecturally, but I think it's a good idea to spend some time working in that direction and see where that goes.

Cat supplies acquired. Now I'm trying to eat dinner while the cat is trying to sit in my lap for cuddles.

Finalized the cat care arrangements for my next trip. Need to buy some more litter.

Emptied a bag of Brazilian . Opening another one to roast more.

Found a phone client that doesn't flip my photos upside down.

Considering opening this instance up to Typica supporters. Would Typica users be interested in having their own little social networking site?

I tried to post this from a phone app but the preview kept showing the image upside down.

As I get closer to trips, my meals increasingly look like this as I start running out of food at home. Flying out to Seattle for the Specialty Coffee Expo on Wednesday where I'm delivering a new class, "Roast Level Exploration and Profile Design" and helping out with a couple other roasting classes.
