Coffee Nerd: How to Have Your Coffee and Drink It Too by Ruth Brown

3.0

I picked this up because I love coffee. I was hoping for a little more background and more depth, but the author did warn me at the beginning that this book wasn't going to have that. Instead it was witty, at times abrasive and 100% hipster. I did enjoy what I learned but I am not convinced to brew my coffee any different then I already do (this seemed to be the authors end game - trying to encourage correct brewing) though I am considering an aeropress, so I'll give her that.

If you like coffee, I recommend this book. It's fun and enjoyable, but if you want to really learn about coffee, look elsewhere!
