I had no idea that there was such an award, but I am greatful for getting one.

Hopefully we will win in the world finals in Paris on February  11th.

It is a book mainly written for consumers that have an interest in coffee and that are interested in learning more about coffee and how to make their coffee taste better. I also hope that a lot of baristas and coffee professionals will read the book and hopefully get inspiration and new ideas in order to push our industry forward.

Kaffe med Tim Wendelboe

The book is about what affects the quality of the coffee from pruduction to roasting, brewing and serving. It is pretty much a sum up of what I know about coffee, but I have tried to write it quite simple so that it is easier for non- coffee professionals to understand what coffee is all about.

My publisher, Schibsted, is publishing the first edition, but it is only written in Norwegian. That is why I need all the help I can get in order to convince my publisher to translate the book into English, so that my friends that don’t know how to read Norwegian can read it too.

So, if you would consider buying my book if it was written in English, please vote “yes” in the poll below.

Would you buy an english version of my coffee book?
Yes! Get it translated a.s.a.p.
No. I would rather start learning Norwegian and read it in it’s original language.
