Review of Uncommon Grounds by Mark Pendergrast (#)

  „Today we Americans drink less coffee than we did in the 30's, but we are drinking and brewing it better. We no longer boil grounds campfire style or percolate them genteel style in the pot. And we have a taster's dream choice of beans, roasts, grinds and brewing equipment. Even our lingo has changed -- from ''Gimme a cuppa joe'' to ''Give me an iced short schizo skinny hazelnut cappuccino with wings.'' (Translation: a small iced hazelnut coffee with one shot of regular and one of decaf, plus skim milk with foam, to go.)“

CoffeeGeek - Coffee Books (all) - Mark Prince's Review

  „I guess this stems from the author's previous work, an expose on the world of Coca Cola. I wanted more details on the history of coffee from a social aspect, and the history of brewing methods, and I didn't get this. I also would have liked more in depth and European based commerce info, and didn't really get that either.“

Virtual Coffee: Feature Articles

  „Always begin with Filtered cold water and bring to a rolling boil. When brewing Green tea or white tea, make sure the water poured over the leaves is not boiling temperature, as this hot a temperature will "cook" the leaves and destroy the tea and its flavor, creating a bitter tasting tea.“
