Loads of you entered for a chance to win the fabulous Baratza Encore grinder that was up for grabs this week. This prize was only available to those of you with U.S. addresses, but we wanted to have something special for the international folks, too: so we’re picking a winner for the grinder as well as a winner who will receive a one-year international subscription to Barista Magazine!

Enough of this chit chat ”you guys want to find out who’s going to win this bad boy!

You all submitted your guesses for the answer to this trivia question, which ”as all Humpday Giveaway trivia questions do ”came out of the  current issue of Barista Magazine.

QUESTION: How does Johanna Wechselberger use IKEA’s children’s 10-piece coffee and tea set at the Vienna School of Coffee?

ANSWER:  Since they’re only one-ounce, she uses them to demonstrate ristrettos. (Of course, answers didn’t have to be word for word — just this general idea)

Great job to everyone who entered and gave the correct answer (and of course included the required information of  first  and  last names  plus  country of residence)!

We put everyone who got it right in the pool, selected one at random, and voilá! We’ve got a winner, and it’s  Matt Hengeveld!

Congratulations, Matt!  We’ll be contacting you shortly by email for your mailing address so the nice folks at Baratza can put this killer grinder in the mail to you right away!

But we still have one more winner for this week’s Humpday Giveaway: someone selected from our pool of international players! We entered the names of all of you who played and got the answer right, and randomly chose:  Giovanni Guevara!!

Congratulations, Giovanni!  We’ll email you shortly to get your mailing information so we can set your subscription to Barista Magazine in motion!

As for the rest of you, we’ll see you next week for Humpday Giveaway when we’ll give away another fabulous prize. Cheers!
