„BeerThe terms 'beer' and 'ale' and 'lager' are often interchangeable with each other, but their meanings are sometimes different. Beer was originally weaker than ale, and whereas ale was brewed using hops, beer was brewed unhopped. Many people use the term 'lager ' to describe a drink lighter in colour and alcoholic content from beer, but the words actually refer to the method of brewing. Lager is bottom-fermented, where the yeast sits at the bottom of the fermenting vat, and is given a long period of cold storage (lagering).“

„In Latin America a popular drink is la yerba mate, or el mate, a tea brewed from the dried leaves of a native holly tree. In Argentina los gauchos, the cowboys of the high plains, reputedly drink mate throughout the day to maintain their strength. However you don't have to travel to the Andes to find it - the refreshing drink is available in most cafés and street corner bars.“

„Removing the heat causes a vacuum which sucks the brewed coffee back down, filtering out the grounds on the way. The lower half serves as a jug for pouring the coffee.This method produces good coffee and looks very elegant. Models are available which sit on a small burner and can be used at the dinner table. The biggest problem is that with two large glass bowls, breakages are inevitable.“
