1
We're here at Intelligentsia Coffee with my friend Jordan Schlansky.
2
Now, Jordan, you consider yourself a bit of a coffee expert, do you not?
3
I enjoy coffee.
4
You enjoy coffee.
5
And you enjoy coffee to the point that you purchased, with show money, a espresso maker.
6
Is that right?
7
And had it placed near your office?
8
It was a reasonable purchase.
9
Reasonable purchase, but you didn't ask me first.
10
It's not out of line with the normal status quo of the office.
11
Did you ask me first?
12
No. Anyway, we've established the point that Jordan stole from me and bought an espresso machine.
13
That's how much he loves coffee.
14
This gentleman right here is Sam.
15
Is that right, Sam?
16
Yep.
17
Sam, good to see you.
18
What does intelligentsia mean?
19
Is it an Italian word?
20
It's an old political party during the wars.
21
I see.
22
Do you know Italian?
23
It's not an Italian word.
24
Okay.
25
All right.
26
But do you know what it means, intelligentsia?
27
I was just told it was an old political party during the war.
28
You're being a wise -ass with me right now?
29
No, I'm being a wise -ass.
30
That's what he just said.
31
That's why I was told...
32
Don't with me, all right?
33
I'll take that coffee machine away from you, and I will stuff it down your pants.
34
I literally will turn on that espresso machine, get it going with hot liquids, and I will shove it down the front of his pants.
35
And watch it cook his scrotum, and then you will add some latte.
36
Jordan, I see you eyeing this.
37
Do you want to buy this for the office?
38
This is the same screen that Jordan sees in his mind every time he tries to register an emotion.
39
Look familiar?
40
Jordan, tell us what you know about the roasting process.
41
Well, it's important that when coffee is brewed, the beans are at the right level after the roast.
42
Too soon, the beans are still degassing.
43
Too late, the beans have become stale.
44
I degassed about three minutes ago.
45
I love this.
46
That's my favorite label that I've seen in a long time.
47
I don't know if you can see that.
48
Bean probe.
49
I must consult the bean probe!
50
What kind of bean is in there?
51
That's a coffee from Guatemala.
52
That's a Guatemalan bean.
53
You like a Guatemalan bean?
54
I expect it's 100 % Arabica.
55
That's the trend today in most modern coffee shops, although traditionally speaking, the espresso in Italy was a combination of Arabica and Robusta.
56
And the problem with single origin is that often there's one flavor profile.
57
So, for your perfect cup of coffee, Jordan, what do you want to taste?
58
Yeah, what's your perfect cup of coffee?
59
My underlying flavor profile is chocolate.
60
Isn't that called cocoa?
61
Isn't that what kids drink?
62
Why don't you just have a cup of cocoa in the morning?
63
What you're saying is not logically sound.
64
Why?
65
I'm talking about a flavor profile of chocolate within coffee.
66
How do you like your meat?
67
Medium rare.
68
It's rare.
69
So, for coffee, a lighter roast is essentially a more medium rare than a well -done.
70
I don't agree with that analogy.
71
You're disagreeing with the coffee expert?
72
Coffee is like black truffles.
73
It's true flavor comes out only through heat.
74
Hold me back.
75
Kill you!
76
Kill you, take it back!
77
Look at it, it's perfect.
78
Has anyone ever fallen into this machine and been mixed in with the beans accidentally?
79
And when they went to drink it, it was filled with human bone and blood and gore?
80
Jordan, why don't you take a closer look?
81
Jordan, just lean in.
82
Okay, Sam, tell us, where are we now?
83
We're in the cupping room.
84
The cupping room, and we are joined by the beautiful Eden.
85
Yes.
86
So we're gonna taste some coffee now.
87
Tell us what to do.
88
So each of these three cups is the same coffee.
89
Some are blends, some are single -origin coffees.
90
What kind of flavors are you tasting?
91
I'm getting coffee on this side of my mouth.
92
And over here, I'm getting more coffee.
93
And on the front, I'm picking up strong hints of coffee.
94
What are you getting, Jordan?
95
A is fruitier.
96
Are you getting a mango?
97
Getting a guava?
98
Mango, papaya.
99
What else?
100
Papaya.
101
Papaya?
102
How are you getting papaya?
103
I'm definitely not getting papaya.
104
And you're not getting papaya.
105
You know what?
106
You're having a small stroke.
107
That's what's happening.
108
We have to get you to the hospital within the month.
109
I'm really not rooting for you to win.
110
Do you have a standout favorite, either of you?
111
I like earthy qualities of certain samples.
112
I like fruitier qualities of other samples.
113
I bet he does.
114
Would you guys stand on, like, putting a flavoring into the coffee?
115
This is one that I enjoy.
116
It's chocolate chip cookie.
117
We put a lot of effort working with our producers, and then Sam does his wonderfulness roasting.
118
So we typically find that the chocolate chip cookie overshadows the effort.
119
This is my favorite right now.
120
You see, mmm.
121
I'm getting milk, now I'm getting chocolate chip cookie.
122
Just try that, please, I'm not interested.
123
Let me sip.
124
Close your eyes.
125
Does that not take you back to childhood when you came into the house?
126
No, it doesn't.
127
And your mother would say, Jordan, Jordan, they made you some cookies.
128
And then she'd pause and say, why don't you ever make eye contact with me?
129
Get out and treat.
130
The cookies were made with monoglycerides. Is this your favorite?
131
This might be my favorite.
132
Yeah, you know what?
133
Hold on.
134
That's very good.
135
There is some traditional basis for this drink.
136
Caffe con panna does exist in Italy, although this whipped cream is an artificially processed product once again.
137
What were you saying?
138
This is artificially processed and overly sweet.
139
There are no qualities of the cream that come forward.
140
I inhaled a lot of the gas propellant, I have to assume that's dangerous as well.
141
I think you'd be fine.
142
It only affects, ah, humans.
143
You're good.
144
I think the real art of espresso in particular as a method of preparation is not
145
so much in the terms of the bean itself
146
But in the preparation of the bean I take issue with
147
the way a lot of coffee bars in the United States prepare their espresso
148
I would rather watch this table spin and listen to anything you have to say
149
Eden what's gonna happen now we're gonna be making drinks So I figured we'd start with espresso, since I've heard that's what you're super into.
150
The problem with this process here is that, again, I prefer the traditional style of 7 grams of coffee per 25 milliliters of water.
151
This is our espresso.
152
Try it.
153
Yeah, sure.
154
What do you think?
155
This is the American style of espresso.
156
It's fruity.
157
It's a little over -concentrated for my taste.
158
I don't like the American coffee culture.
159
What they perceive to be a good espresso is an espresso
160
that has had so much coffee jammed into a small amount of water
161
that they suddenly perceive it as something that they've never tasted before, and therefore it's good.
162
Get him.
163
Get him.
164
Get him.
165
So what we're looking for is we're looking for the proper amount of extraction for each coffee particle.
166
Based on what criteria?
167
Based on the actual solubles that we're extracting.
168
But the issue is, if I push it over 22, 23, and I go towards my 30 % extraction, those tannins are going to overpower any of the sugars and acids that we had in there.
169
That was fantastic what you just did.
170
You just whipped them in a new A -hole, and I loved it.
171
Um, thank you.
172
Thank you.
173
You got schooled, son.
174
You got a bill.
175
A daze.
176
Tupac.
177
What do you think we've learned today?
178
Have we learned anything?
179
I think what we've learned is that coffee, like most of the sweetest things in life, is best enjoyed with people you care about.
180
I'm gonna throw up.

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?

Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
