This book could have been alternately titled “A guide to Hysteresis Curve”

This Saturday, there was not much action in Farmers’ Market. Most of the vegetable folks were missing due to the cold weather. Picked up this book from a coffee stand.

Purportedly this will bring my experiments in coffee and mixology together. Wonder what lack of barista skills added to lack of bartender skills sum up to.

Will try a drink this evening. Would be interesting to see if the alcohol makes me sleepy or the coffee keeps me awake!!

From the barista’s corner – Coffee from Country #17 : Kenya

I have this friend and ex-colleague in Chicago – Leecox – who hails from Kenya and has his own coffee business. Got some of his Kenyan coffee from his online store and tried it out. You can read about their story here. The package came with 3 different packs of coffee. Gave two of them to two current colleagues of mine – Julia and Akshay. The three of us are neophytes in coffee culture and trying our best to gain some expertise. We even have a name for our group – “Sip Happens!”

In any case, all three have liked this Kenyan coffee. A bit bitter as coffee should be and less on the sour notes.
