If I'm to sum up my 2020, the perfect word to describe this year is PIVOT. From having a fast-paced lifestyle to staying at home indefinitely, my way to cope with today's uncertainty is to pursue my longtime interest–coffee-making. I bit the bullet during the Lazada 6.6 sale and bought a Breville Barista Express. Not only was I able to brew coffee in the comforts of my home, but I was also able to slowly master coffee-making with an espresso machine.
The more I discover the wonders of my coffee machine day-by-day, the more I realize why choosing to trust Breville is one of the best decisions a noob home brewer like me can make. Apart from their fantastic line of first-rate kitchen products and trustworthy after-sales service, they also make sure to inspire kitchen mastery by initiating events and partnering with the experts in the local Food and Beverage industry.
Among
its highly successful events is the Breville Virtual Coffee Hub. They invited the best chefs and baristas in the country to share their recipes and techniques with everyone. The free live Facebook event, which is open to all, talked about everything and anything about coffee and baking and hosted several cooking and brewing challenges for event participants.
Now that the year is almost over, Breville is closing 2020 strong by hosting a two-part virtual event as their last hurrah. “Bravo, Breville!” will serve as a holiday celebration for the brand and will be streamed live on Facebook in two separate events, on December 12 and 19, 3PM, respectively.
The first part, “A Breville Christmas,” featured culinary masters Chef Waya Araos-Wijanco (Gourmet Gypsy Art Cafe), Chef Myke Tatung Sarthou (Simpol), and entertainment personality and coffee enthusiast Mikael Daez. In this session, participants learned how to make recipes perfect for their Noche Buena tables using some of Breville’s best products.

In addition to helping consumers become masters of their kitchen, Breville has always been focused on connecting with its community and inspiring them to start a healthier lifestyle, too. Even as the year comes to a close, the brand promises to continue its efforts to champion mastery and creativity among its market.
