Tim Williams - Fieldwork Coffee & World AeroPress Championship

In this interview, Tim Williams, the Director of the World AeroPress Championship and the founder of Fieldwork Coffee, shares his early memories of drinking coffee as a functional beverage to help him stay up to watch Formula One as a teen. Tim also discusses Fieldwork’s approach to seasonal coffee releases, drawing inspiration from the fashion industry, and why they focus on washed coffees.

We touch on having high standards personally and professionally and what it means to inspire teams toward greatness rather than pushing them toward it.

Finally, Tim shares the history and evolution of the World AeroPress Championship, from a casual competition to a structured global event and how host cities and competitors can get involved.
