The Coffee Atlas

A must-have for anyone who wants to know more about coffee and its variety - and how to bring it to the barista at home! Coffee has never been better and never more interesting than today! The variety of varieties and processes is greater than ever and coffee has become an integral part of our everyday lives. It has long been a luxury food par excellence, something that true connoisseurs want to know about: where does coffee come from and what exactly distinguishes good coffee from the bad? How must the coffee be roasted, how must it be ground, and with what water must it be brewed so that its best properties come into their own? Champion barista and coffee roaster James Hoffmann provides answers to these and many other questions. The Coffee Atlas is the first book to portray coffee production in over 30 countries in Africa, Asia, and South America, shows comprehensive map material, and conveys details that were previously unknown outside of the coffee industry. Almost 70 pages are dedicated to all the important information and explanations for putting it into practice - this is how you become a real barista at home!
