网友对The World Atlas of Coffee: From beans to brewing - coffees explored, explained and enjoy的评论
更适合对咖啡有基本了解的读者。
虽然内容框架设计对入门TX而言也很清晰,但是作者在某些环节的描述上,涉及的信息比较细腻,有一定的知识积累阅读体验更好。
事实上,从我拿到这本书开始,就对书的内容报以期待,概因书的装帧深得我心。
与coffee obsession 差不多同时到达,本着好东西留到最后的心理,先看了coffee obsession。
再读the world atlas of coffee,开始实际上有点“审美”疲劳的意思,两本书的架构太过接近,都可以算作半半式结构,承袭大多数咖啡书籍的架构,半篇来写“从种子到杯子”,半篇或为“配方”、或为“产地简介”,obsession属于前者(“配方”),atlas属于后者(“产地”),从个人喜好上来说,中意后者。
所不同的是,或者,两本书最大的不同,是行文风格。
Atlas就跟书的名字隐约露出的“知识分子”范儿一致,从版式设计到文字风格,都是一副书生姿态。不必细究内容,随意翻到一页,看看那些排列整齐、一板一眼的字母和排列,多么可爱认真的书生范儿。更不必再提,字里行间的朴素和真实。
内容,虽然不能出彩,但是也不会令人失望,仔细读来,还是能够有所得,对自己的咖啡认知的补充。这里的所得,更多是来自于作"rest":"者的行业经验的丰富。能够有所得,大约还是来自作者这位咖啡前辈经验更丰富、视野更开阔。有所得,更多的是关于咖啡行业的一些细节和产业链上的完整认知,而不是某个环节上的深度知识。<br />重点还是在内容的广度上,而不是深度。<br /><br />内容上,还可以称赞的,是描述的细致程度。以产地简介部分为例,这本world atlas可以算是目前市面上现有书籍中比较精细的一本了,涉及到每个产区,都有该国咖啡历史及产业发展概况的介绍,然后是清晰直观的产区分布图,以及主要产区的介绍。相对特别的要算,主要产区的介绍更加贴合精品咖啡背景下的描述习惯,简明扼要的标注了海拔、品种这样确切有效的信息,从这样的细节上也算是能够显示本书的新番作风。<br />就产地简介来说,比较特别的是关于印度和越南的介绍,这在现有书籍中是比较少见的。<br /><br />就书籍本身而言,肯定会有收获,有阅读价值,值得推荐。<br /><br />另,obsession和atlas两本书的作者是共同创业的合伙人,前者作者Anette是2007年世界咖啡杯评赛事冠军,后者也就是本书作者是2007年世界咖啡师大赛冠军,二人夺冠后共同成立了square mill coffee roasters,公司业务涵盖咖啡烘焙、咖啡器具销售、咖啡培训、咖啡商业咨询等。了解到两本书的这一层渊源,再来细读这两本书,难免会有文字之外的感触。"
这本书特别在两点,第一:霍夫曼在刚入咖啡这一行的时候就很想找一本体系全面又通俗易懂的专业咖啡书籍自己学习,然而,他没有找到,因此他干脆自己写了一本,所以说这本书基本算是填补了行业的空白。第二:霍夫曼是一个很爱钻研的人,他的博客基本每周或者每两周都会更新一篇审读文章。在咖啡行业中存在着一些没有答案的问题,比如咖啡粉的研磨到底是粗一些好还是细一些好,可能今天这个咖啡师这么说,明天换一个人又有另一个说法,但是霍夫曼会在书中给你一个确切的答案,并且会告诉你为什么。
最近看到了中文翻译版本的这本咖啡圣经,个人觉得任何经过“语言加工”后的书籍或者影片,或多或少都会渗透传递者的理解,真正了解原作者想要表达什么,还是品尝原汁原味的比较好~
这本原版书内容还没有仔细去研究,大体翻阅一下感觉是本传统专业的工具书,内容框架非常舒服,精装版纸质适合保存~
第一次体验亚马逊prime服务,非常好,赞~
作为咖啡控绝对不能不买
James Hoffmann是世界咖啡师冠军,也是深刻影响业界发展方向的领军人物之一。这本书作为从业人员和爱好者都是必备的一本参考书,咖啡的树种,采收处理方式和主要产区的特点都有介绍。
