5.0 out of 5 stars This book is a coffee engineer companion, April 6, 2000
By 
Fernando Figueroa Goodwill (El Salvador, Central America) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Coffee Technology (Hardcover)
Coffee Technology was written in 1963, it contains all the wealth of experience gathered by Mr. Sivetz, a chemical engineer and coffee consultant, while designing, installing, and starting up coffe processing plants all over the world. The subjects covered range from drying the grain, psychrometric charts, roasting coffee, percolation, aromatizing soluble coffee, packaging roast coffee. All subjects are covered in depth in a "Theory and Practice" format where the process is analized with formulas for pressure drop, temperature and pressure changes, mass flow and later, experimental results are provided. Allthough it was written over 27 years ago, the information is valid because the markets for coffee change but the physics of the process is the same.

5.0 out of 5 stars It doesn't get any better, April 15, 2000

This review is from: Coffee Technology (Hardcover)
"Coffee Technology" was the only book I needed when i helped establish a coffee co-op in Haiti. It contained more information on the growing, processing and roasting of coffee than any other source I read (including the famed Urker's book). Not for the coffee beginner but could be used as a teaching and training tool to those new in the business. Highly Recommended!
