A video made by Works in Progress Magazine about Decent Espresso, our mission, what we do and why, with a short digression about Buckminster Fuller. https://worksinprogress.co/
Everything about this video is on a whole different quality level than we've produced. Sound, editing, video quality, storytelling, and (I think) my presentation, are all the best I've seen, about Decent.
