James Hoffmann is the co-founder of Square Mile Coffee Roasters (London, 2008) and won the World Barista Championship in 2007. He is the author of The World Atlas of Coffee (2014) and How to Make the Best Coffee at Home (2022).

He has been writing about coffee since 2004 on his blog Jimseven, and his YouTube channel has become an international reference for equipment reviews, roast comparisons, and home brewing technique. His best-known home brewing methods include the one-cup V60 recipe, the "Ultimate French Press" (with the skim-before-plunge step), and the "Ultimate AeroPress" with bypass.

Gota catalogues his published recipes for V60, AeroPress, Chemex, Kalita and French press.
