The Many Reasons and Benefits for Enjoying Coffee

Over half of the adults in the USA drink coffee.  And no wonder - coffee is delicious.

It is also an experience.  A good cup of coffee is a great way to start your day, and can give you a chance to reflect on the things that are important to you.  Coffee is the "liquid form" of Yoga.

Coffee has more antioxidants than most foods, and that is healthy for you. 

The aroma of coffee has a calming effect, especially during the first 30 minutes of fresh-brewed coffee.

Coffee consumption may reduce the change of illness.  There are indications that regular coffee drinking can reduce the chance of Parkinsons Disease, Colon Cancer, Diabetes, Alzheimers, and others.  Another study found that regular coffee drinking reduced the change of liver alcoholic cirrhosis, especially cirrhosis caused by excessive alcohol consumption. This might be due to the antioxidants.  The more coffee consumed, the more protective the effect, it seems.  Of course, there are limits to anything!

Coffee also can reduce depression in some people; more than other caffeinated drinks (like soft drinks).  It can reduce the chance of suicide, and in women can reduce the change of skin cancer.

Coffee can supercharge your workouts.  It gives you energy, so you can workout harder.  It seems good for both cardio workouts and for weightlifting.  The antioxidants in coffee may reduce the visible signs of aging in some people.

Coffee Consumption is up in the US

8 in 10 adults in the US Drink Coffee
Coffee drinking is on the rise in the US - both the number of people who enjoy a cup ,and how much they drink.  Over 8 in 10 adults drink coffee on a regular basis.  This is from all sources - drip Latte, Espresso, Iced, and so on.

The US is the world's largest single market for coffee, and business is up over 5%, according to data from the NCA (National Coffee Association). 

The biggest increase comes for the gourmet segment that includes Latte's, Cappuccinos, and the like.  Over one-third of adults in the US drink these gourmet, fancier types of coffees.

Many coffee shops and chains will all claim to make the best Latte's. We have done a lot of research, and it appears that it is highly dependent on the individual Barista; perhaps more than anything. 

If you want the perfect Latte, visit a series of coffee shops in your city, that either roast or get their beans daily from a local roaster.  Order a Latte or two from each coffee shop until the find that one Barista that makes the perfect Latte.  And tip that Barista well, so they will stay at that job!

Do you have what it takes to be a great Barista?  If you are looking for a job as a Barista, or any job in a coffee shop, click here; we have 100's of Barista jobs!
