Richard,

Here in Italy there are similar sayings: an old Neapolitan one says that you've got to drink it scorchingly hot: ("come cazzo coce") I don't literally translate it as it is a bit rude, but that's what it is.
The second: saying: ".....Per fare un buon caffè ci vogliono 4 M... M come Miscela... M come Macinatura... M come Macchina... M come Mano..."
I'll translate it for you: to make a good cup of coffee it takes four Ms: mixture (blend), Macinatura (good grinding), Machine, Mano (hand),
In fact given the same water and the same best gound coffe not every barman can make a very good cup of coffee.

My 2 cents
