Another new book?

I notices a book on Amazon entitled "Bean There, Drunk That... the Definitive Guide to Coffee and the World of the Barista" by David and Matthew Gee.

This is a third edition so I guess it has been out a while. Is it worth blowing twelve quid on?

Thanks for this info, David. Think I'll give it a go. May not tell me anything new, but, hey, it's another book in my little library.

I've never come across this before, so suspect not many earlier editions made their way out of Australia. Worth having a look at the authors' website: www.baristabasics.com.au - there are some more pages from the book on display there.

Lulu.com appear to be the publishers - and they are self-publishers, which seems to fit with the look of the book on the website.

Arrived yesterday.

Should be more properly titled 'Making Coffee and Running a Coffee Shop for Morons'

If you're on this forum you probably know more that you can get from this one. It's not even a nice presentation.
