Do any HN coffee drinkers have any recommendations for precise/scientific resources on coffee? I know a lot about brewing coffee in different ways and a cursory amount about the 'what' of what's happening to the beans/grind but would like to develop a more rigorous understanding.
- xavieralexandre 6y agoI like the Illy [1] book on the subject. It is mainly about Italian espresso though and less representative of 3rd wave brewing. [1] https://www.elsevier.com/books/espresso-coffee/illy/978-0-12-370371-2 https://www.elsevier.com/books/espresso-coffee/illy/978-0-12...
- whitepoplar 6y agoWhat're the differences between the two?

- shepherdjerred 6y agoI've recently gotten into espresso and found the professional barista's handbook to be a great resource. It's a short book but it goes into the science of how brewing espresso works. It also goes into drip coffew but that was a little less interesting for me.
