Last month, the Specialty Coffee Association, or SCA, announced that registration for the 2021 Specialty Coffee Expo was officially open. This four-day event in New Orleans will feature more than 400 exhibitors showcasing their most innovative coffee products and services.

The All-Guild Workshop features:
