Coffee Links

There is not enough space on any one site to say everything known about coffee or espresso, from grower to what comes out of the espresso machine, and we don't need to plagiarize. But we might be able to tell you in advance what to expect at the links listed below.
In addition, did you notice the box with the Ads by Google on most of our pages? There are some really good sites in those boxes, and we recommend that you click on a few. You won't be sorry you did.

We also know of well over 500 more sites about coffee or espresso and we are trying to find and visit more of them. But it takes time to sort out what each site offers. While we are doing that, just Contact Us.

Be sure to read "A Short History of Espresso" (http://www.home-barista.com/espresso-guide-short-history.html) at this site. It's not very short. It's more like a mini-book. But even experienced baristas will find it interesting. The main site is great too.
