They talk about its journey from farm to roasting to brewing. After his deep dive, Sam shares five criteria for making the best coffee. The Inside Track The Guys chat with Sam about quality coffee and, in typical Restaurant Guys fashion, they don’t choose the lesser variety.Sam: There are actually two basic different kinds of coffee, Robusta and Arabica. The robusta, the cheap stuff that goes into the cans and supermarkets, actually has more caffeine than the more expensive stuff. So if you really want that caffeine jolt, get the cheap stuff.Mark: I'd rather have two cups of something good. Is that okay? Sam Gugino on The Restaurant Guys Podcast 2005InfoSam's websitehttps://www.samcooks.com/(Sadly, the coffee article is no longer available)Sam’s newest book (2025)Eat!
