Factual error: Matt Perger won the World Brewers Cup in 2012 (the first Australian to do so), not 2013. In 2013 he placed second (runner-up) at the World Barista Championship, a different competition. The article conflates the year and the competition. Unverified citation: 'Fischer, A. (2017). The Emergence of Third Wave Coffee and the Erosion of Expertise' does not exist. The cited DOI (10.1177/1469540517736558) actually belongs to a completely different, real Journal of Consumer Culture paper: McCabe, de Waal Malefyt, and Fabri, 'Women, makeup, and authenticity' (2020). Real journal + unverified paper/DOI mismatch. Unverified/incorrect citation year: the real book by Rob Pascoe, 'Buongiorno Australia: Our Italian Heritage' (Greenhouse Publications, Melbourne), was published in 1987, not 2009. Real author, title, and publisher with an altered date.
