Of course I didn’t do all this by myself – God helped me. I’m not a web programmer, but Omar Chowdury is and if you like the design contact him on osc.pri [at] gmail [dot] com

For that coffee shot on the welcome page, an expert photographer called Larry Williams shot it.

I don’t live in a coffee growing nation but Mr Mucheleng’anga does and he took this picture of an Arabica plant in Lusaka, Zambia and sent it to me.

Special thanks to:

My wife for buying me my first espresso machine and milk frothing jug.

My kids for ensuring that all that frothed milk left over when I prepare a latte or cappuccino doesn’t go to waste but down their throats. Of course they can’t have coffee until they are teenagers.

Sorry to all those coffee beans that I had to throw away because they were not ground properly enough in order to allow a 21-24 second pour for an espresso.

For all that technical and factual stuff, I read tons of stuff, books, articles, websites and spoke to many people, however in short these were the main sources:

World Encyclopaedia of Coffee – Mary Banks, Christine McFadden and Catherine Atkinson

Coffee - Discovering, Exploring, Enjoying - Hattie Ellis

The Joy of Coffee – Corby Kummer

Anyone can do it – Building Coffee Republic – Sahar Hashemi
