Book Description
Follow the ultimate coffee geeks on their worldwide hunt for the best beans. Can a cup of coffee reveal the face of God? Can it become the holy grail of modern-day knights errant who brave hardship and peril in a relentless quest for perfection? Can it change the world? These questions are not rhetorical. When highly prized coffee beans sell at auction for $50, $100, or $150 a pound wholesale (and potentially twice that at retail), anything can happen. In God in a Cup, journalist and late-blooming adventurer Michaele Weissman treks into an exotic and paradoxical realm of specialty coffee where the successful traveler must be part passionate coffee connoisseur, part ambitious entrepreneur, part activist, and part Indiana Jones. Her guides on the journey are the nation’s most heralded coffee business hotshots: Counter Culture’s Peter Giuliano, Intelligentsia’s Geoff Watts, and Stumptown’s Duane Sorenson. With their obsessive standards and fiercely competitive baristas, these roasters are creating a new culture of coffee connoisseurship in America—a culture in which $10 lattes are both a purist’s pleasure and a way to improve the lives of third-world farmers. If you love a good cup of coffee—or a great adventure story—you’ll love this unprecedented up-close look at the people and passions behind today’s best beans. “Weissman illustrates how the origin, flavor compounds and socioeconomic impact of a cup of coffee are relevant now more than ever. . . . Tagging along behind the main characters in today’s specialty coffee scene, [she] travels from the exotic to the expected to artfully deconstruct the connoisseur’s cup of coffee.” —Publishers Weekly

Book Description
Do you crave caffeine? Are you the kind of person who can't function before that first fresh, aromatic, piping hot cup of coffee? Do you enjoy a refreshing cup of tea in the afternoon or a cold glass of Southern sweet tea on a hot day? What if I told you that you can grow tea and coffee from the comfort of your own backyard? Let me tell you the story about how I learned all about tea and coffee (too much, probably) and how I could grow it for myself. I do own a sizeable crop of tea and coffee trees, and I can confidently say that I can entertain my friends with my homebrewed caffeine. In this Grow your Own Caffeine book, I tell you the story about my foray into horticulture when I thought that I could never in a million years possess a green thumb. Along with the more humorous anecdotes of how my marvelous venture came to be, I share with you my extensive research. You'll learn what I know about tea and coffee, as I obsessed over this topic for years: The history, culture, and customs surrounding tea in the world The history and folklore of coffee Exactly how I set up my growing operation What to expect while keeping your plants alive and thriving How to tell a quality tea How to harvest and process tea and coffee at home The health benefits (and drawbacks) of tea How to judge the quality of tea Throughout the whole book, you'll read about my valiant attempt at taking on what seems to be an impossible task. If I can do it, you can, too! As a bonus, I included an appendix about how to detect different grades of tea leaves. I can confidently say that this was the craziest, yet most fulfilling undertaking that I have ever tried in my life. Some say it was a mid-life crisis; some say it was foolhardy. I say it was good to the last drop! Bonus For a limited time if you buy the paperback version, you can download the eBook version for free, so you can enjoy all the colorful images I have added in this book. Enjoy.
