5.0 out of 5 stars The Bible of all other coffee books
The information contained in this book is perhaps the most complet and concise information on the subject. While it was written nearly 75 years ago there is no other work that is more complet. If I could rate it a 12 I would have. A must for any coffee profeciadnoda.

1.0 out of 5 stars Do not buy this!
I purchased this book and received the worst looking piece of publishing that I have ever seen.

The book is coffee table sized. Inside, printed on photocopy paper in the centre of each page was a BLACK AND WHITE PHOTOCOPY in the size of a trade paperback, sitting with broad margins. The index was further photo-reduced, printed two pages to a page and...

5.0 out of 5 stars Good buy cheaper than available in Australia, September 5, 2008
This review is from: All About Coffee (Hardcover)
Bought as a birthday present for my son who is already on the path to becoming an experienced Barista. He was thrilled to get the book and finds the book very informative and is already sharing the knowledge held within this essential manual with fellow baristas. Very fast postage to Australia and much cheaper than I can buy here. The book was wrapped thoughtfully and arrived in A1 condition. Great book would recommend to anyone interested in knowing all about coffee.

1.0 out of 5 stars Do not buy this!, July 4, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I purchased this book and received the worst looking piece of publishing that I have ever seen.

The book is coffee table sized. Inside, printed on photocopy paper in the centre of each page was a BLACK AND WHITE PHOTOCOPY in the size of a trade paperback, sitting with broad margins. The index was further photo-reduced, printed two pages to a page and printed and bound in landscape.

This cannot be an honest mistake.

And then I was quoted $60 shipping to return the book.

Avoid this book and every other book by the same printers at all costs.

NOTE: I gave this one star because Amazon's system doesn't allow for NO STARS or less. THUMBS DOWN!
