A book about coffee and all things around it, for the curious and open-minded, and for those interested to know a little bit about the world's most beloved dark drink.

Let There Be Coffee is the culmination of Emanuelis Ryklys' experiences acquired during years of working, experimenting, and simply playing with coffee. From the raw bean to roasting, from coffee tasting to combinations with food, from well-known coffee products to original recipes and tools, Let There Be Coffee is dedicated to inspiration and discovery.

Ryklys, founder of Crooked Nose & Coffee Stories in Vilnius, Lithuania, is a recognized coffee personality – an educator organizing international conferences, designing original coffee products and curating memorable tasting experiences. Through Let There Be Coffee, he invites you to learn about the fundamentals of coffee as well as new discoveries, brewing tools, and flavorful experiments. Ryklys demystifies coffee, sharing the origins of the coffee bean, how it came to Europe and the rest of the world, the most popular bean varieties, and what to expect when the order is placed at your local coffee shop.

But most importantly, it provides simple yet essential directions for brewing the most delicious cup of coffee at home, using the tools you have, whether it's a Chemex, moka pot, or an espresso machine. Thus, Let There Be Coffee is for anyone who enjoys at least one hot cup of joe every day.

With impressive full-color photos and subtle illustrations, this is an essential book for both, the kitchen and a coffee table.
