Taiwanese barista Berg Wu won the World Barista Championship (WBC) in Dublin, Ireland, the first Taiwanese and only the second Asian to win the honor since the competition started in 2000.
台灣咖啡師吳則霖，在愛爾蘭都柏林的「世界盃咖啡大師比賽」中，榮獲世界冠軍佳績。他是該項比賽自二○○○年創辦以來第一位獲此殊榮的台灣咖啡師，也是全亞洲第二位世界冠軍。
The WBC pitted national champions from more than 50 countries against each other in four days of competition. The competitors each had to prepare four espressos, four cappuccinos, and four original signature drinks to exacting standards in a 15-minute performance.
來自超過五十個國家的各國冠軍選手，要在為期四天的世界盃互相競爭。每位參賽者要根據嚴格標準沖泡四杯濃縮咖啡，四杯卡布奇諾，和四杯原創的特調飲品，並且要在十五分鐘以內完成。
Wu earned his master’s degree at the Graduate Institute of Electronics Engineering of National Taiwan University. He worked as an engineer for several years and started to sell coffee as a vendor in Taipei in 2004 until he opened his own shop “Simple Kaffa” in 2011.
吳則霖有台灣大學電子工程學碩士學歷，畢業後當了幾年工程師，自二○○四年開始在台北市擺攤賣咖啡，直到在二○一一年才開設了自己的咖啡廳「Simple Kaffa」。
Since 98 percent of coffee is water, good coffee needs to use quality water, said Wu. The water used for coffee needs to have the correct pH value, TDS (total dissolved solids) value, and high or low mineral content (hard water or soft water).
他說，咖啡裡有百分之九十八是水，好的咖啡跟水質有很大關聯。用來沖泡咖啡的水必須要有恰當的酸鹼值、總溶解固體量，和礦物質含量（硬水／軟水）。
