Engineering Better Espresso: Data Driven Coffee
Product Overview
Product Overview
Author Robert McKeon Aloe pulled his years of experience and nearly 200 coffee articles into this thorough book. His personal and friendly approach to microns, ratios and extraction yields make it a comfortable read when it comes down to such an unforgiving method of making coffee.
Engineering Better Espresso - Data Driven Coffee's 26 chapters are divided into four main topics: Shot Preparation, Pre-Shot, Pulling the Shot and Post-Shot. His story begins with experiencing the drastic difference between delicious espresso in Paris and the "nasty" bitterness of a few Starbucks shots. He eventually revived his passion for espresso and intersected it with his other hobby: data. Somewhere in between, he became a home coffee roaster and there's even a photo of his Hottop in chapter 1. This book is also filled with charts, diagrams and more of Aloe's personal photos.
