JAMES HOFFMAN FAN REVIEWS HIS BOOK
Great reference for anyone seriously interested in understanding origins, brew methods, a bit of history, and general topics pertaining to coffee. If you can't or don't want to spring for the hard copy, get the less expensive kindle edition. It's fun to read about the coffees you are presently drinking: where they came from, who grew them, what cultivars they likely are, and so on. It's like traveling the world with your morning cup. Nice to feel part of a community that is attempting to care about producers as well as roasters and baristi. Recommended. Cheers, netizen

Beau livre informatif
Pour ceux qui aiment tout savoir sur le café, c'est un livre à recommander. Belle présentation, solide, très informatif. Livraison dans la boîte aux lettres. Emballage légèrement abîmé dans les angles. Heureusement le livre n'a pas été affecté. Version en anglais, date de 2018. Il faut donc bien maîtriser l'anglais pour pleinement profiter du livre. D'après mes connaissances il n'existe pas une version en français.
