Artigiani del Gelato are returning to Gallery 40 to take us on a journey in the coffee world. We will learn about the coffee birthplace, the coffee routes, the types of coffee and caffeine and how will drink it. The main techniques: infusion and percolation;
Oriental coffee: the oldest infusion method;
The French press: the most popular method in Northern Europe;
The Neapolitan coffee maker: a ritual of slowness;
Filter coffee: the most popular coffee drink in the United States;
The moka pot: the Italian tradition of home coffee;
Espresso: the elixir of coffee.
We will show you how to make a few of these techniques and offer one of the oldest way of tasting espresso.... with a spoon of fior di latte gelato.
You will also be able to purchase gelato at the end of the talk.
