Cappuccino after twelve? Italy's oldest barista says: No problem!

Nebbiuno, Italien - in the picturesque Nebbiuno, Italy, the 100-year-old Anna Possi, the oldest barista in the country, has been at the coffee machine of her "Bar Centrale" since 1958. While coffee is a real art in Italy, Possi, who has not drinked coffee for a long time, has clear, but also surprisingly relaxed views on the traditional drinking habits. While many Italians would no longer order cappuccino after 12 noon, it does not see any sense. "Who am I that I have to prescribe my guests when they have which coffee to drink?" Possi said in an interview with the German Press Agency. Your motto: enjoyment does not know any time as long as you listen to your own taste.

coffee break after eating? None!

The long -established barista nevertheless has two golden rules for coffee enjoyment that should be remembered: firstly, coffee should not be combined with freshly squeezed orange juice, as this can cause unpleasant consequences. Second, she recommends not drinking coffee after a lavish lunch because the stomach is already full. Interestingly, she loosened up the strict regulations for cappuccino drinkers, which ensures relief for many tourists and coffee lovers. Your customers who want to enjoy a cappuccino in the afternoon get them, regardless of the time.

Anna's view of the coffee culture is also reflected in the discussion that many Germans lead over the Italian drinking customs. While the cappuccino is often frowned upon after lunch in Italy, Anna finds that times have changed. "The rules have loosened over the years," said the Barista, which also benefits tourists who are faced with a different coffee culture. Their unconventional attitude is supported by the fact that the traditionally rigid coffee rules, especially for travelers, are increasingly loosening up. As "Nonna Anna" she enjoys separating the chaff from wheat and clears up more than just a myth-she brings a breath of fresh air to the coffee discussion, as well as Infranken reported .
