Carlos has been working in coffee for 9 years, opening his own coffee shop in Mexico City and has recently started a roasting project with his wife called Cafe con Jiribilla. He is a seasoned competitor and has previously won the Mexican Cup Tasters and Brewers Cup Championships.

Carlos is a real success story of PUSH – the product was designed with the objective of providing more comfortable, safer and ergonomically-friendly tamping. Carlos had experienced pain during his work as a barista - before trying PUSH.

“I really love working with the PUSH tamper because a year ago I had a risky neck surgery and got 4 prosthesis so I can continue having a “normal” life. My shifts as a barista were really painful because of the constant tamping and “bar-dynamics” so working with the PUSH has completely changed my bar shifts.”
