Appendix Coffee Glossary

Baristas don't sell coffee, they sell culture!

This book, "All About Coffee," which has been translated and published in over 20 countries around the world, is a book that covers coffee, which has become a part of human life to become a globally popular beverage, through the lens of humanities and history.
Coffee, the second-largest traded beverage in today's world after oil, is a beverage that people all over the world cannot live without, even for a single day. We will closely examine the history and culture of coffee, tracing the process through which it became deeply ingrained in human life.
In Italy, where coffee was introduced in the 16th century, it was oppressed as a “drink of Satan.”
Coffee opponents were clamoring to banish coffee from the Christian world, but Pope Clement VIII, who was captivated by its aroma and taste, had no choice but to baptize it as the "true Christian drink."

In London, where coffee houses were just beginning to proliferate, there was a period of indiscriminate slander and praise for coffee.
One coffee club, a popular social gathering at the time, even created and posted 'Cafe Rules' to warn customers not to offend intellectuals and the upper class.
Also, at a time when gender discrimination still existed and women had difficulty entering coffee houses, a group of women demanded that their husbands be banned from entering coffee houses, claiming that coffee made men like "barren lands that bear bad fruit."
These anecdotes surrounding coffee clearly show the political, social, and cultural characteristics and customs of the time.
This book was written to provide a comprehensive overview of the origins and spread of coffee, from its early days of popularity to the development of today's advanced coffee tools and brewing techniques, and the evolution of methods and tools for brewing coffee.
It also introduces literary works depicting coffee and coffee houses, as well as various music, art, plays, and musicals with coffee as their theme.

Fall into the temptation of the devil's drink, coffee!

Coffee, which was first cultivated in Ethiopia, was known as a sacred awakening drink in the Islamic world, and then spread to Europe, where it developed into a luxury food with excellent taste and aroma, and today, it has established itself as the best drink enjoyed by everyone.
The path that coffee has taken to spread and expand across the world has been a steep and exciting one since it first became popular, so much so that it could be called the "coffee road."
The history of coffee and the coffee industry, which has influenced the development of civilization since the early modern period, includes the history of modernization, when human history began to fully integrate with industrial civilization, economic trends, and social changes.

Based on his experience working for a coffee company, the author systematically organizes everything from the origin and spread of coffee, the rise and fall of coffee houses, coffee brewing methods and the evolution of the coffee industry, coffee's portrayal in cultural and artistic works, and even coffee brewing tools and crafts.
The author's persistent writing, steeped in caffeinated black liquid, offers a cup of coffee-like insight into life, interest, and enjoyment, infused with humanities and historical perspectives.
It took hundreds of years for coffee to establish itself as a universally loved beverage.
In the early 16th century, strict Muslims in Mecca began to oppose coffee, believing it to be harmful to health.
In fact, this was out of fear that coffee would usurp the role of religion as a source of spiritual rest.
One monk was even flogged for saying that coffee, like wine, was an intoxicating drink, which was forbidden in the Islamic world at the time.

In the controversy surrounding coffee, coffee advocates who broke the ban were tortured or exiled, while the Egyptian ruler Khayr Bey and his Persian physician brothers, who had issued the ban and suppressed it, were ultimately executed.
Additionally, in 16th century Italy, where coffee was first introduced, it was oppressed and branded as the 'drink of Satan'.
Pope Clement, who was initially intrigued by the claims of Christians, eventually baptized coffee as the "true Christian drink" after experiencing its aroma and taste.
London's coffee houses, where anyone could enter for a penny, were called 'penny universities'.
Unlike in a tavern, it was a great learning place where customers could gain culture and information through free conversation and debate.

Meanwhile, at a coffee club in London, which was a popular social gathering place at the time due to the indiscriminate slander and praise of coffee, they even created and posted a 'Cafe Rules of Use' to warn customers not to offend the intellectuals and upper class.
Also, at a time when gender discrimination still existed and women had difficulty entering coffee houses, a group of women demanded that their husbands be banned from entering coffee houses, claiming that coffee made men into "barren lands that bear bad fruit."
It is difficult to describe Paris in the 18th and early 19th centuries without mentioning the fervor of the countless coffee houses that sprang up.
Historian Michelet wrote that at that time, all of Paris was one giant café.
The hearts of the crowds gathered at the Café Palais Royal during the French Revolution burned with passionate agitation and tension.
In this way, Parisian cafes were a hotbed of revolutionary spirit and a place for exchange.

In Africa, where coffee has been consumed as a food, coffee has long been considered an excellent protein-rich food and a stimulant containing caffeine.
In the case of nomadic tribes, it was food they took with them when they went on a trip, but it is known that they also used it in their daily meals.
Since coffee began to be made into a beverage, its manufacturing methods, manufacturing techniques, and tools have undergone numerous developments and changes.
