Book Report -- Carol Recommends

The Coffee Book: Barista Tips, Recipes, Beans from Around the World by Anette Moldvaer
Book Report -- Carol Recommends

Ever wonder where coffee originated? South Sudan and West Africa maybe, but no one knows for sure.

Did you know the coffee tree is an evergreen? And that it takes three to five years after planting to flower?

This book includes everything you might want to know about coffee, and in my case, never thought to ask. The many ways to brew coffee is included as well as what to brew it in; French press, aeropress, or stove-top pot perhaps? You’ll learn what type of coffee grows where. How to “cup” coffee. And a list of recipes; Caffe Touba, Almond Fig Latte, Sparkling Espresso, Coffee Lassi, and many more.

Published by DK, this book has a great layout, is easy to read, has nice photographs, and is packed full of useful and fun information.

This title is available in print at the Library.

Carol is the Director of the Churchill County Library.  She enjoys a good cup of coffee.

We reached out to the writer/submitter and got this info back...hope it's helpful. PBM: Pharmacy Benefit Managers are pharmacies that are owned by insurance companies. (CVS is one.) They negotiate with drug makers to get reduced pricing for medications, but they historically have not passed along those savings to patients. https://www.ftc.gov/system/files/ftc_gov/pdf/pharmacy-benefit-managers-staff-report.pdf MFN: Most Favored Nation pricing is a policy that means a country agrees to offer the same trade concessions (like tariffs or price reductions) to all member nations of the World Trade Organization (WTO). When applied to pharmaceuticals, it could disrupt global access, deter innovation, and obscure the deeper systemic issues in American health care. https://petrieflom.law.harvard.edu/2025/05/22/the-global-risks-of-americas-most-favored-nation-drug-pricing-policy/Comment publication date: 6/23/25, 7:47 AMComment source: L E T T E R TO THE EDITOR
