Michael Macaskill and Hugh Pines from Terbodore Coffee Roaster’s Franschhoek roastery recently climbed up Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania, the highest mountain in Africa. Their aim was to attempt to make an espresso on the summit with a modified La Pavoni lever machine and publicise Terbodore’s young-at-heart, adventurous offshoot, called Lazy Bones.
They documented their journey to the summit with an entertaining, three-part video series. See what happened in the videos below.
