Pour Over Stations

Somebody mentioned earlier in this thread, that in a food service setting the local health inspector might give you grief over the use of wood.  I don't see why, since the coffee's not coming into contact with the wood, but those inspectors use a different brand of logic sometimes.

We haven't had an issue thus far in that respect. The friend that did the wood (also did a butcher block top for us) used a food grade varnish, to make sure that wouldn't be an issue.

I also found it helpful to give the head of the zoning & inspection board free coffee. Goes a long way.
