For everyone who wants to understand more about coffee and its wonderful nuances and possibilities, this is the book to have.
Coffee has never been better, or more interesting, than it is today. Coffee producers have access to more varieties and techniques than ever before and we, as consumers, can share in that expertise to make sure the coffee we drink is the best we can find. Where coffee comes from, how it was harvested, the roasting process and the water used to make the brew are just a few of the factors that influence the taste of what we drink. Champion barista and coffee expert James Hoffmann examines these key factors, looking at varieties of coffee, the influence of terroir, how it is harvested and processed, the roasting methods used, through to the way in which the beans are brewed.
Country by country - from Bolivia to Zambia - he then identifies key characteristics and the methods that determine the quality of that country's output. Along the way we learn about everything from the development of the espresso machine, to why strength guides on supermarket coffee are really not good news. This is the first book to chart the coffee production of over 35 countries, encompassing knowledge never previously published outside the coffee industry.
We all expect to be able to buy an excellent cup of coffee from the many brilliant coffee shops available. But what about the coffee we make at home? Shouldn't that be just as good?
Coffee guru James Hoffmann runs Square Mile Coffee, as well as creating extremely informative, and popular, kit and coffee reviews for his YouTube and Instagram channels. In his latest book he demonstrates everything you need to know to make consistently excellent coffee at home, including: what kit is worth buying, and what isn't; how to grind coffee; the basics of brewing for all major equipment (cafetiere, aeropress, stovetop etc); understanding coffee drinks, from the cortado to latte; the perfect espresso; and taking it to the next level - home roasting.
Kaffee war nie besser und nie interessanter als heute! Längst ist er aus unserem Alltag nicht mehr wegzudenken und Genussmittel par excellence, über das der echte Kenner Bescheid wissen möchte: Wo liegen die Urspünge des Kaffees und was genau unterscheidet guten von schlechtem Kaffee? Wie muss Kaffee geröstet, wie gemahlen und mit welchem Wasser aufgebrüht werden, damit seine besten Eigenschaften zur Geltung kommen? Auf diese und viele weitere Fragen gibt Championbarista und Kaffeeröster James Hoffmann Antworten und entführt den Leser auf eine Reise in die Welt des Kaffees. Der Kaffeeatlas ist das erste Buch, das die Kaffeeproduktion in über 30 Ländern Afrikas, Asiens und Südamerikas porträtiert, umfassendes Kartenmaterial zeigt und außerhalb der Kaffeeindustrie bisher kaum bekannte Details vermittelt. Das Kapitel "Von der Bohne in die Tasse" widmet sich allen wichtigen Informationen und Erklärungen für die Umsetzung in die Praxis - so wird man auch daheim zum echten Barista!
