WARNING! LARGE DOSE OF COFFEE IN THIS POST!
I was in Fully Booked this afternoon and I went to section about different beverages and, of course, I browsed through the books about coffee. Oh goodness! I was in heaven once again!
Too bad I couldn't afford all of it. But there were really good ones. Like this one that has information about brewing and buying coffee and some recipes we could use for "any future store". And another one about the cultural history of coffee from its first conception to the philosophizing in a coffee shop. And another one that lists places to buy fine coffee and where to get a good cup of coffee and what the best espresso machine is.
But since we couldn't buy all of them, my sister and I settled on this book:
The World Encyclopedia of Coffee: The Definitive Guide to Coffee, from Simple Bean to Irresistible Beverage by Mary Banks, Christine McFadden, Catherine Atkinson
The book contains the history of coffee, where in the world the best coffee is, describes the coffee beans from different countries and even has recipes for pastries and coffee drinks. It's a really good book, very informative. It can help us when we conceptualize the products for our future store.
But we're going back and still gonna get the other books. *wink* |
