Ask HN: How do you make your coffee? (ycombinator.com)
I recently bought an AeroPress and have been enjoying lighter roasts with it, something I didn't think I'd ever enjoy. Before that, I usually preferred a dark roast french press, or a Nespresso if I didn't feel like making coffee. Black, no cream or sugar.

Coffee Plants of the World (sca.coffee)
Coffea arabica, which is indigenous to Ethiopia and some neighboring lands, first was transported out of its homeland into neighboring Yemen. From Yemen, coffee was transported around the world. The coffees that we call typicas today originated from plants that left Yemen and were taken to Java and outlying Islands, possibly by the Dutch, possibly with some transport by the mythical monk Baba Budan. The coffees we call Bourbon today stem from plants transported to Ile Bourbon with the French.

You are how you resist (medium.com)
If you live in Amsterdam, you’ve probably seen a coffee chain called Cafecito. Decent coffee, minimalist typographic logo, snowy-white walls, clean geometry of interior objects, perfectly lined up branded merchandise on wooden shelves. I hate it. It is less authentic than Starbucks on a train station. Cafecito is so outstandingly unremarkable that its facelessness feels to me like a personal insult.
