🕑: 01:00 PM - 04:20 PM
ROUND ONE: Spin the BREWLETTE Wheel!

🕑: 04:30 PM - 05:40 PM
ROUND TWO: Elimination Brewing!
Info: Round Two starts with a coin flip to determine which coffee will be brewed through the bracket. Eight competitors from Round One will move into an elimination bracket, where two competitors will brew head-to-head in an knock-out style brew-battle. Competitors will have 8 minutes to prepare and serve their coffee. A panel of three judges will select the coffee they like best, without knowing who brewed the coffee or how that coffee was brewed, until there is one competitor remaining: the Brewlette Champion.
🕑: 05:40 PM - 06:40 PM
Trophy Presentation and Awards Ceremony
Info: The Brewlette Champion along with the runner up and 3rd place competitors will be awarded trophies along with swag and other prizes. There will be a celebratory toast with Dona Tea, refreshments, raffles, and good cheer to celebrate Brewlette. All are welcome to join!
