Quick, clear and enjoyable read. The authors write things in a simple to understand way without the shrouds of mystery and language that sometimes surrounds coffee, there's no real need to make it so complicated! So a good book if you want to know more about coffee and want to cut out a lot of the jargon. ... show more

    • Everything needed in a compact book!
Fantastic read! Covers everything from history to region types of beans, tastes to ways to roast you're own beans, and even covers a variety of equipment to roast, brew, and serve the freedom of real coffee.

    • This book is good if you are looking for very, very, very,.......did I say very,.......basic information.
This book is good if you are looking for very, very, very,.......did I say very,.......basic information. It is a small book and as a result content does not go very deep. Example, the history of coffee along with regions and regional characteristics was covered in about 15, maybe 20 6"x6" pages which included pictures with a few sentences per country of origin. The "how too's", at least the ones I read, did not go into much detail, no tips and tricks, guidelines, or things to watch out for. Example, frothing milk basically said place tip below surface, heat to 105 degrees, dip deeper, heat to 140, then pour, not much else, at least not enough info to help me figure out why my frothing technique was not quite up to snuff. In addition to all this the binding, book cover, and many of the pages were completely apart upon arrival with no damage to the package. I did not ding the book for its condition upon arrival, figuring it to be a fluke, so my 3 star rating (and I do feel I was being generous) is solely content based for someone like me who is an aspiring home barista hungering for details on coffee, origins, brewing techniques, and other pertinent details.....details being the operative word. If you want details and depth there are better books out there. If you want a basic book that looks cool, that you want to keep on your coffee table for casual reading and you do not want to go into much detail on the overall subject of coffee this is a good book. If you are hungry for information wanting to go into depth overall on the subject of coffee there are much better books out there. ... show more

A great resource for anyone wanting to learn more about the coffee/espresso you drink. But most especially for those who are brave enough to try and make espressos for themselves at home.
