Mane's Class Visit

Yesterday, Mane Alvarez, the founder of Artisan Coffee visited our Spanish IV class with one of employees Aaron. Mane and Aaron talked to us about the different ways to taste coffee and the all the different flavors and "sensations" that your taste buds feel. Mane and Aaron also showed the class how different coffee makers can produce different tastes. We tested the same type of coffee through a paper filter, a French Press Machine, and a Japanese Vaccuum coffee maker. The three makers produced completely different sweeteness, body, and bitterness. All in all, the visit was very interesting and gave me (and the rest of the class) a much different outlook about coffee.
