Book arrived today, and it's interesting enough, but I haven't found much new in it. Absolutely great for a newcomer, though, covering all the basics, including different methods of brewing, home roasting etc. Probably the best book I've come across for a newcomer.
Strangely, since it arrived my wife hasn't had her nose out of it, and appears to be reading it cover to cover at break-neck speed. Up to now she's only ever taken a very marginal interest, other than being a discerning customer of the various brews that I have presented her with. It would seem that within a couple of hours she may well have assimilated a level of knowledge that it took me months, or even years, to acquire in the pre-internet days!
