Please tell us about yourself.
My name is Nasko Panov and I’m a coffee researcher from Sofia, Bulgaria. I work as a service engineer and application specialist for one of the biggest companies for analytical and measurement instruments. In free time, I’m a coffee researcher and coffee blogger. I’m performing experiments and different projects related to coffee. This was something I was considering for a few years and I started my website a few months ago.
What is your vision and goal?
I would like to continue improving my website, coffee research and I hope I can develop it so I can perform even more deep and ambitious coffee projects.
How did you get started in coffee, what made you fallen in love with it?
It all began four years ago while spending my vacation in Italy. It was the first time I had ever tried a specialty coffee. And since then I am constantly searching for that special cup of coffee. I have been to Germany, Italy, Austria, Romania, Indonesia, Scotland and many more where I'm trying to find it. Sometimes I did, and sometimes it found me.
If you weren't a coffee lover or professional what would you have done instead?
I really like woodworking professions. This is another hobby that I’m practicing, and I probably could do it instead of coffee.
What is your favourite coffee beverage ?
Espresso for the intensity of taste and Aeropress because of versatility and possibility for experiments.
