The New Book!
Added 2022-09-06 13:00:07 +0000 UTCThis is just a quick message regarding the launch of the new book, How To Make The Best Coffee At Home. It is very exciting, and slightly terrifying, to publish a new book. This won't be a long post, I promise!
The book publishes on September 15th in most places (UK, Europe etc), and on October 4th in the US.
We've started a pre-order for the limited number of signed copies we have, that will ship from 3 different warehouses: the UK (Square Mile are doing logistics), the Netherlands, and the USA. Here are the links:
(If your Patreon tier has a Tens Hundreds Thousands discount, that will work on the books - expect a follow-up post immediately after this with a refresher on the codes for relevant sites).
I'll be honest - this book covers a lot of what we've covered on the channel (though it does have new material in it), and so if you've watched all the videos or consider yourself a skilled home barista then I'm not going to claim that this book will be transformative for you. If you're a patron then you're already supporting the channel, and I'm very grateful. I don't want this to read like I'm not proud of the book - I am, but I don't like pushing people to buy things they don't need or won't find useful. There's a bit more detail on the book's website if you want more info.
There is also a quick video I made for the book here.
The cheapest place to buy the book is, of course, Amazon - though libraries should be carrying it and are certainly able to order it in if you ask them. Also, it should be well distributed around local book shops (though they'll lag a little bit compared to online). If possible, please support your local libraries and book shops!
That's it - this is longer than intended already! Thank you all for your support, and if the book appeals to you then I hope you enjoy it!

P.S. An embarrassing number of typos (a number more than 0) made it into this first printing of the book. My apologies! They've all been caught since, so future print runs won't be defective. But hey - at least you can prove it is a first print run of a first edition!

Looking forward to the book being delivered. Hopefully it will raise my game on the Bripe.

2022-09-07 20:40:21 +0000 UTCLooking forward to it! Will gift it to some of my coffee-inclined friends. @James A question though. Amazon Germany lists the book as to be published on the 4th of October, not on the 15th of September. Is that intentional? https://www.amazon.de/make-best-coffee-James-Hoffmann/dp/1784727245/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?keywords=james+hoffmann&qid=1662549860&sr=8-1

2022-09-07 01:42:24 +0000 UTCWould love a signed copy. It's a shame this wasn't announced at a time that was good for us.
Steffen Spear
2022-09-07 01:39:39 +0000 UTCAlso wasn’t able to grab a signed copy for US-delivery and would LOVE the opportunity to get one. Maybe I’ll just order the UK one and have it shipped to my mate in London 🤔
Scott Maier
2022-09-06 23:47:17 +0000 UTCTried to Add to Cart a few hours ago for a US copy, spinny thing has been spinning ever since. I guess they sold out between the page loading and the click. Damn, I really wanted a copy with the typos. It reminds me that I'm not the only one who makes mistakes like that.

2022-09-06 22:22:05 +0000 UTCMan signed copies are already sold out state side, will we see more signed copies or should I just Amazon a regular copy?
Sean Z
2022-09-06 20:17:50 +0000 UTCThat went so fast that I didn't even get to see what the price was 😅 any chance of more copies being sold? Or should I just preorder on Amazon?
Ryan Glovinsky
2022-09-06 19:46:06 +0000 UTCHo no.. already sold out. Please James, can you make a few available for the patreons? I don’t care about the discount. But a signed copy would be so nice :)
Tiago Coimbra
2022-09-06 19:43:42 +0000 UTCIt sold out so rapidly - can't you sign some patreon-only?
Frank Reichenbach
2022-09-06 19:18:24 +0000 UTCDang, the USA copies sold out fast.

Jiri Prochazka
2022-09-06 15:30:00 +0000 UTCWill this book work as a kindle version, or will you loose a lot without the picture quality?
Richard Potter
2022-09-06 14:59:02 +0000 UTCSo sad that 'worldwide' does not include Brazil. Not your fault I know, but still sad =/
