I enjoyed watching this show, it's easy to watch, a little educational, but also somewhat annoying. Now i say somewhat annoying cos the 2 topics that are/were of a particular interest to me didn't event mention a couple of HUGE areas within their field.
For example in the Coffee episode he didn't even once mentioned flavored coffee. I've been roasting coffee myself for years and flavored coffee has a special place in my heart. I really love to mix freshly roasted beans with different flavored beans to find that one special blend that has just the right taste... but not once have i managed to find out exactly what the coffee companies use to flavor their coffee so i can try to make my own. I know that the flavor is sprayed on the beans while they are in the oven being roasted, but what is it and how is it made? Not being able to find out anything about it makes me very curious why, and i would have loved if he had said something about it. After all flavored coffee is a pretty big part of the coffee business so it was a bit surprising and quite disappointing that he choose to not even mention the subject at all.
The second thing was even more surprising and disappointing.
He did an episode about denim without once mentioning selvedge! What?! How does that even happen??
That's literrally like talking about the history of cars without mentioning the T-Ford... nuts...
Anyways.
I't still a good show though, and i do recommend it :)
