I'm interested in opening a coffee shop. Need information on what type of equipment, coffee, and info on how to prepare different kinds of coffee, i.e. cappachinos, expressos, lattes. I just need the basics to start with. Thanks for any kind of help you can give.

First of all, do you drink coffee? Do you love coffee? You won't get rich, but you'll have a lot of fun and meet interesting people. For technical info on drawing good shots and making good foam, check out a video called Espresso 101. There are tons of good website resources: http://www.espresso101.com/, http://www.lucidcafe.com/inventory/videoinv1.html...just do a search on Yahoo or Google and you'll find tons of information to help you. Best of luck!
