For such a simple beverage, coffee can seem complicated, especially if you don't make it for a living. But thanks to a growing number of dedicated farmers, importers, roasters, and baristas, coffee quality around the world is at an all-time high, and achieving cafe-caliber goodness at home is well within reach.

That's where this book comes in. Written by a coffee enthusiast for coffee enthusiasts, Craft Coffee helps you figure out what you like, what to buy, and how to use it. From demystifying the science of extraction and manual brewing techniques on 10 different devices to choosing equipment and beans, this accessible guide focuses on the issues--cost, time, taste, and accessibility--that home coffee brewers negotiate. No matter where you are in your coffee journey, you can make a great cup at home.
