Every Type of Coffee Explained in 20 Minutes

Walk into any coffee shop and the menu can feel like it lists fifty different drinks. But most of them start with the same two ingredients: coffee and water. What changes is the pressure, the temperature, the brewing time, the milk, and sometimes just a few extra ounces in the cup. In this video, we break down 18 coffee types, from a two-sip espresso to cold brew that steeps all night. You'll learn what actually makes each one different, plus the stories behind them: Italian inventors, Ottoman coffeehouses, a flat white rivalry between Australia and New Zealand, and at least one origin story that may not be true. By the end, you'll be able to read any café menu and know which ingredient is supposed to lead. ☕ Which coffee is your favorite, and why? Tell us in the comments. (Yes, "all of the above" is an acceptable answer.)
