Yesterday I had the great priveledge of helping out on the Dark Fluid coffee stall at Brockley market alongside Lawrence and Karen. Having spent alot of time talking with Lawrence over the last few months and having visited his roastery a number of times it was such a pleasure to see how all his hard work is put into practice and also how many people are embracing what he is doing. Whilst Im no expert behind an espresso machine, the Kees that Lawrence has refurbed was a pleasure to use and turned out some delicious shots. The iced coffees were very much the order of the day and people seemed to really enjoy their drinks. Alongside Dark fluid there were a host of other excellent producers on show throughout the market and a healthy cameraderie between the stallholders. The blazing heat and quality goods saw yet another good turnout and I believe that before long the market will become a real hub for the community.
