Adam Grundleger:
Regarding coffee:

It has a clinically observed antidepressive effect, not solely due to caffeine

The prized Kona and Jamaican Blue Mountain coffees have less caffeine than other types

Darker roasts have less caffeine than lighter roasts

You don't need an espresso roast to make espresso

The term espresso refers to the expression of the coffee under pressure and is not a reference to speed

The best espresso is expressed by hot water at 9 bar or about 132 psi at 190-200 F
