20.01.2022 I might have been a bit rough around the edges, but someone thought I was worth it! ;) - "Two before Ten transformed this once unoccupied building" (@tess_presso). Read about Jack's love of coffee and the versatility of Two Before Ten. Jack has worked at the city store and now roasting out of Aranda, hear what he has to say. ... Thanks, @tess_presso for the weekend feature with @jckjm Hats off to the young Jack Mann, who has been with the Two Before Ten team for over 2 years now. He just started roasting this year at their Aranda site, on Bandjalong Cres. Since relocating from Civic back in 2015, Two before Ten transformed this once unoccupied building into a cafe with adjoining roastery. As always, when traveling interstate I love meeting new baristas and roasters and Jack was certainly a breath of fresh air. He spoke of his love for the endless dynamics in coffee and the fact that you are forever learning when it comes to the humble brown bean. Jack also discussed the emphasis placed on sustainability at Two Before Ten, and the need for it to begin at the farm level. This young man was wise beyond his years and spoke with an eloquence that kept me hanging on his every word. I asked Jack when he had his first 'wow' moment with coffee, and his reply was like music to my ears. None other than a Natural Ethiopian guji, that he described as tasting like strawberry cheesecake. The future looks bright for Jack and the Two Before Ten team.... And yes, I managed to have a fair few more than 2 shots of coffee before 10 this morning. I call that a standard day. Where? 68 Bandjalong Cres

18.01.2022 Did you see? Someone wrote a story about me.... I'm sounding pretty good these days. I have SO much to offer. So famous....

17.01.2022 It's been six years today since we moved into the old Aranda shops building and a lot has changed in that time. After the site sat empty for many years, we took... on the challenge of renovating what was once an old grocers and butcher shop, turning the space into the Two Before Ten Cafe, Roastery, Bolt Bar and Illeso Studio. But the most exciting change is what's outside. Creating an Urban Farm had been a dream of ours for years. With the fruit trees now producing in abundance and the vegetable gardens packed full of crops, the garden has become a little green sanctuary producing a huge amount of food for our cafes and #UrbanFarmGoods. There are still plenty of projects and changes to come, but looking back, we're pretty proud of what the Aranda shops have become, and how the community have come together to bring life to this little corner of Canberra.

12.01.2022 I really have come to life thanks to the guys Two Before Ten - Cafe & Coffee Roasters. I do have a lot to offer. From an old, tired building to becoming a vibrant, sustainable hub.

12.01.2022 Over the school holidays the Two Before Ten Urban Farm teamed up with Aranda Primary's vacation care program to run a sustainability workshop. The Honeysmith an...d Dan from Spored @ Banjo's Paddock also got involved with presentations and some hands-on time with the mushrooms and bees. We had 54 kids participating in different activities, including a bee talk & demonstration, mushroom workshop, seed planting and greenhouse making, and recycling and compost demonstration. It was a positive experience all round and great to be involved in a joint venture with the local community. Definitely something we'll be continuing into the future!
