“Photographer Horst A. Friedrichs[‘]…photos lovingly capture the intricate process behind brewing up our favorite stimulant. Nora Manthey lends her words to Horst’s photographs, which escort readers from the pulverizing of beans to liquid being pumped through extraordinary machines in coffee shops all over the world. The book even takes on the increasingly popular art of creating designs in cappuccino foam. Along the way, you’ll peer at french presses, immerse yourself in ice drips, enjoy espresso and more. Horst catalogues these and far more esoteric types of preparation paraphernalia – peppering in photos of flames and grinds, beans and baristas – and it’s good to the last drop. “
