Summary of The Professional Barista's Handbook: An Expert Guide to Preparing Espresso, Coffee, and Tea

FROM THE AUTHOR: When I began in the coffee business fourteen years ago, I read every book I could find about coffee. After reading all of those books, however, I felt as if I hadnt learned much about how to make great coffee. My coffee library was chock-full of colorful descriptions of brewing styles, growing regions, and recipes, with a few almost-unreadable scientific books mixed in. I would have traded in all of those books for one serious, practical book with relevant information about making great coffee in a café. Fourteen years later, I still havent found that book. I know many other professionals as well as some obsessive nonprofessionals would like to find that same book Ive been looking for. This book is my attempt to give it to them.
