History of Coffee 5/6

Pe drumul de intoarcere spre Martinica, de Clieu scria, un calator “josnic de invidios”, “fiindvincapabil sa-mi sustraga aceasta planta de cafea, i-a rupt o ramura”. Apoi au aparut piratii care aproape au capturat vaporul; apoi a venit o furtuna care aproape l-a scufundat. In sfarsit, vremea s-a incalzit. Prea tare chiar. Apa s-a imputinat si a fost rationalizata. De Clieu a alocat jumatate din parcela pentru butasii afectati de seceta. Sub supraveghere armata, lastarul a crescut puternic in Martinica, extinzandu-se la o familie de aproximativ 8 milioane de arbori de-a lungul a 50 de ani. Roadele acestuia au aprovizionat America Latina, unde o filiera periculoasa a inlesnit raspandirea cafelei catre populatie…

A vacuum coffee maker brews coffee using two chambers where vapor pressure and vacuum produce coffee. This type of coffee maker is also known as vac pot, siphon or syphon coffee maker, and was invented by Loeff of Berlin in the 1830s. These devices have since been used for more than a century in many parts of the world.[1] Design and composition of the vacuum coffee maker varies. The chamber material is borosilicate glass (pyrex), metal, or plastic, and the filter can be either a glass rod or a screen made of metal, cloth, paper, or nylon. The Napier Vacuum Machine, presented in 1840, was an early example of this technique.[2] While vacuum coffee makers generally were excessively complex for everyday use, they were prized for producing a clear brew, and were quite popular until the middle of the twentieth century. The Bauhaus interpretation of this device can be seen in Gerhard Marcks’ Sintrax coffee maker of 1925.

History of Coffee 4/6

In jurul anului 1714, Ludovic al XIV-lea a fost cinstit si el de catre olandezi – un arbore de cafea pentru Gradina Botanica Regala din Paris (harta), Jardin des Plantes. Cativa ani mai tarziu, un tanar ofiter naval, Gabriel Mathieu de Clieu, se afla in pemisie in Paris, din Martinica, a colonie franceza din Caraibe. Imaginandu-si ca Martinica ar putea fi o Java franceza, a cerut ramurele din arborele regelui. Dar a fost respins. Hotarat, de Clieu a facut un raid nocturn prin Jardins des Plantes – a sarit peste zid, a intrat in sera si a furat un lastar. Misiunea fiind indeplinita, de Clieu s-a imbarcat spre Martinica. Daca a crezut ca ce-a fost greu a trecut, s-a inselat…

History of Coffee 3/6

“Turcii (harta) beau un lichid inchis la culoare… le voi aduce din acesta si italienilor” (harta). Astfel,un negustor din Venetia a prezentat Europei cafeaua, in 1615. Dar pentru multi negustori, boabele de cafea nu au adus neaparat si plantatii de cafea – aveau nevoie de mijloace de productie. Asa a inceput competitia. Olandezii (harta) au fost cei care au trecut peste primul obstacol in 1616, infiintand o plantatie de cafea pentru prima data in Europa (harta). Apoi, in 1696 au infiintat prima plantatie intr-o colonie europeana, in Java, acum parte din Indonezia (harta). Afacerile in domeniu au inflorit si olandezii s-au extins si in insulele invecinate. Increzator dincolo de prudenta, orasul Amsterdam a inceput sa repartizeze arbori de cafea aristocratilor din intreaga Europa…

Jamaica Blue Mountain Coffee

In past years, when Jamaica’s economy was dominated by plantation slavery, some slaves Maroons were able to escape to the Blue Mountains and live independently. Today the famous Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffee is cultivated between 2000 and 5000 feet above sea level,[2] while higher slopes are preserved as forest. Hagley Gap and Mavis Bank are farming communities located on Blue Mountain with Hagley Gap being closest to Blue Mountain Peak. Both towns rely upon the area’s rich, fertile soils for growing Blue Mountain Coffee.

CAFE HAWELKA, VIENNA — Andy Warhol stopped by for a cup of his coffee. So did princes, paupers, playwrights, poets, and untold thousands for whom a visit to Vienna was unthinkable without a cup of steaming brew served by the bow-tied little man with the perpetual dancing smile.

In a city of more than 1,900 cafes, Leopold Hawelka was an icon, as much part of Cafe Hawelka as its tables, scarred by burned cigarettes, their marble tops worn smooth by the elbows of four generations. He served tourists, the rich and the famous, and the neediest of the needy, the ragged Viennese masses who crowded his establishment over a free glass of water to escape the cold of their bombed-out city after World War II.

History of Coffee 2/6

Dupa cum bine stim, cafeaua a luat startul in Arabia, unde boabele prajite au fost fierte pentru prima data in jurul anului 1000 e.n. In secolul XIII musulmanii beau cafea cu piosenie. “Supa de boabe” aducea ascetii musulmani pe orbita, tinea credinciosii treji si a intrat in traditia seculara. Si oriunde a ajuns Islamul, a ajuns si cafeaua: Africa de Nord (harta), zona mediteraneana de rasarit si India (harta). Arabia a descurajat exportul boabelor de cafea, decat prajite sau fierte, si se spune ca nici o samanta de cafea nu a inmugurit in afara granitelor Africii sau Arabiei pana in anii 1600 – pana la Baba Budan. Conform traditiei, acest contrabandist pelerin indian a parasit Mecca avand seminte fertile prinse pe burta. Boabele lui Baba au inmugurit si astfel a inceput extinderea zonei de cultivare a cafelei ajungand curand pana in coloniile europene…
