my father used to talk with a Colombian business man that ships coffee all around the world, but he says that he travels especially to Italy in order to drink a real good coffee.
Happy new year. Coffee is part of my life because I am coffee farmer, my best regard to all coffelover everywhere. If you want to know about coffee plant you can watch from channel. Sorry my English is not perfect
The Italians appreciate what they have and have perfected it according to their own regional palate. It is perfect for them. Most specialty coffee shops roast and brew the coffee they purchase to discover and highlight the best flavors from their beans. After experiencing the plethora of flavors from different coffees from around the world, I don't like the Italian style espresso flavors any more. The Italians are stuck in the past. They roast their beans too dark....but that's how they like it.
agree the world is ever evolving and there are new specialty beans and fermentation and brew methods to appreciate other dimensions of coffee around the world
I miss the expresso coffee so easy to find in Europe. The closest to it I could find in US was in Little Italy (NY City) at an very old Italian place. They use an "ancient" coffee machine brought from Italy by the founders. They are a 3rd generation now managing/owning the place. Nice to keep tradition and quality all this time.
I loved this entire episode. I only wish there were some details about how the different products reported on [buffalo mozzarellas, espresso] are made or originally created, not just chit chat about how many people line up for them or how much is produced in a year. I would prefer fewer in-depth sections to more surface reports. This is a quibble. I hope to see more location-based shows in the future.
You can go more in depth on your own if you are that interested in learning more about your own specified interests. Don't wait for a network to bring it to a TV program, research your interested desire, start reading material! There are so many articles and DVD'S on this subject that it would boggle your mind. If you wait for something it never comes. Go after it if you want it.
....... It will be the best decision of your entire life. A decision with the results being an event that will stay in the forefront of your mind's eye for the rest of your life. Research it, plan for it a year out, if you must, JUST DO IT.
The best espresso I ever had hands down was in Italy. In America, they don't know how to make espreso. They either make this diluted watery brew with no crema(think Starbucks), or they make these ultra-extracted, ulta-bitter, undrinkable conconctions with the consistency of motor oil and dark brown/whitish crema with over 300 mg of caffeine per shot that actually represents a health hazard to you if you have cardiovascular issues(think "third-wave" specialty coffee shops). In Italy, the espresso is just right: medium consistency, light-brown/reddish crema with no white spots indicating over-extraction and no thin yellow crema indicating under-extraction, aromas of chocolate and spice with no bitterness, and 60 mg of caffeine per shot which is just about right to get a caffeine buzz with no jitteriness or mental irritability. In all fairness, Italians usually take 2-3 shots in one sitting, but even 2-3 shots of traditional Italian espresso does not give you the caffeine overdose that even one shot of "third wave" specialty espresso in America gives you.
Same is happening in India now. People ditching the traditional south indian filter coffee, which has close to 50 mg caffeine for third wave health hazards. There is no single shot, minimum starts from 18gm. 18 gm is too much. 7 is the sweet spot
USA barely making it to that level of coffee appreciation.....with the 3rd wave. Only took a few hundred years to catch up to what is already normal in many countries.
@@Kidasev But the folks in the US that talk about the coffee waves think they are at the vanguard of coffee culture globally...lol. Clueless to the fact that people in coffee growing countries are born into the 4th wave of coffee by default.
@@Dangic23 Oh I was talking more your average Americans who are just getting more into the coffee thing. The snobs are snobs, they're everywhere all over the world though to be fair
John Edwards sorry but all this u mention are garbage there more like appliances than machines, u want machines look at the exm,profitec,rocket for example. Beautiful machines and last a lifetime
@@danl.4743 Possibly, but if you only try one variation of something as complex as coffee and declare it as terrible, you're an idiot. It's like disliking vodka shots and saying all alcohol sucks
0:55 my man mo salah enjoying his coffee ☕👍🏼

Italian people's dress sense is impeccable
My first espresso was in Italy when I was 14, I had it one of pit stops on the Italian highway. I got back into espresso in college.
I know this place. Conan went there.
Franky Ramone gimme your watch! wanna be nice to the american? gimme your shoes!
reminds me of conan's coffee segment!
We talk about Florence and coffee

They like it because they don't know better. They drink it out of having a sort of a ritual. ( I know what you mean though)
I mean it's not like the green itself is of very high quality, so if you roasted lighter it would probably taste awful.

Stick to the scenic routes... the italian mafia still has a presence in the city.
Espresso con panna is my favorite

Naples city barely gets any tourists, since it's rough & dirty. All the tourists stay outside the city.
OK, forget this commercial. Illy is overrated and overpriced.
