how to choose the best coffee maker for you

For those interested in aesthetics, nearly any finish, color, and style of a coffee machine can be found. But different coffee machines fit different people and different locations. For the serious coffee lover, even the RV must have a perfect coffee machine. Nearly every coffee lover would like to have the best coffee maker in their own home and office. Many coffee machines also do the coffee grinding for you. Additionally, nearly all of these coffee machines can specialize in producing hot or cold brewed coffee. You can get automatic coffee machines, espresso coffee makers, French presses, vacuum coffee machines, drip coffee makers, pods, and stove top coffee makers. More pragmatic variations exist in coffee machines. Among the most common types of coffee machine makers are Sunbeam, Senseo, Saeco, Breville, Delonghi, and Jura. There are hundreds of companies that have their brands on at least one type of coffee machine. In addition to coming in a variety of colors, coffee machines can be made of a variety of materials. Plastic, stainless steal, and glass are the most common materials composing coffee machines. The main material to be aware of is shatterproof glass. You want your carafe to be shatterproof glass. If you have a giant kitchen or a large office coffee room, you will want to get a commercial coffee machine that can make twenty or more cups of coffee at one time. Many of these commercial coffee machines will also include some very nice extra features such as a thermostat, warming plate, filter, timer, and frothing system. As you might guess, a coffee machine with most of these features can be quite expensive. The main thing to remember is that the price can be adjusted downward by doing without various features. Some have found the price reasonable enough to buy one of these models for the home. Which brings us to the closing concept of shopping within your budget among your coffee machine options. If a coffee machine doesn't make the kind of coffee you drink the most, you probably don't want to spend much money on it. For example, if you mostly drink cappuccino, how often will you really use your coffee machine instead of an instant cappuccino or going to the coffee shop for cappuccino? Save up and shop for a good cappuccino maker in this case as you'll be much happier with it. You should always shop around until you can find the best coffee maker that makes the perfect coffee for you within your budget.

the history of espresso coffee makers

Initially in some machines they found some kinks to be worked out but the coffee maker inventors didn’t let little issues deter them. The espresso machines not only produced the coffee faster but also produced a better one. Espresso coffee makers came into existence from man’s need for a faster cup of coffee. Who invented the first espresso coffee machine? It got the publicity in 1855 at the Universal Exposition in Paris. Some record says, the first espresso coffee maker was invented by Louis Bernard Babaut in 1822 along with Edward Santais, who was the marketer of machine in 1843. Each record gives us different answers. According to the records, in an hour a coffee maker can produce one thousand cups of espresso coffee using steam to force water through coffee held in the filter. Every new invention has to bear risk and this espresso coffee maker was not an exception. It had a tendency to blow from time to time and sometimes it burned the coffee too. The initial espresso coffee makers weren’t so easy to use. Operating them required some degree of skill and it left plenty of room for diversity. The intensity of the heat & the length of time were controlled by the operator and the water valve remained open. The coffee users could put in less coffee grounds & obtain strong coffee or use more water & get a diluted one. Further records credit Luigi Bezzera, a manufacturer, with the invention of Espresso in 1903. Bezzera wanted to make coffee faster, so he added more pressure due to which ‘Voila’ the Fast Coffee Machine was born. This machine made coffee faster and better than any other machine. The machine invented by Bezzera used the force of steam to push water through a fixed filter containing coffee. Even though Bezzera was skilled in inventing, he was lacking in the marketing talent to promote his creation. In 1905, Desidero Pavoni purchased the rights of the espresso machine and the product was successfully marketed, changing the way everyone drank coffee. The coffee makers were sold throughout Europe by Pavoni. Franceso Illy created the first automatic espresso coffee maker. In 1935, Illeta invented the coffee maker and used compressed air instead of steam for his machine. The problem of exploding espresso coffee makers was solved by this machine & gave a more stable result. The espresso coffee maker invented by Achille's Gaggia bears his name in 1945. The lever action was included in his invention and even today we can get the modern versions of both Illeta and Gaggia espresso coffee makers. An electric rotating pump was created by Ernest Valente in 1950. The pump allowed a continuous, even flow of water through the coffee maker. In 1970’s, Illy went on to simplify the espresso coffee maker process, when he introduced a machine that combined the best parts of previous espresso coffee maker methods. His machine used double filters, which costs less than other coffee makers and was simple to use. The debate over which methods and which machines produce the best espresso will be going on as long as people continue to enjoy their cup of Joe. The machines continue to evolve. Now they are the standard coffee makers in many countries. Super automatic espresso coffee makers were born in the 70's.

various espresso coffee makers you can choose from

No avid espresso drinker's life feels complete without an espresso coffee maker that will deliver espresso the way the espresso drinker likes it each morning. Surprisingly, many people still go plop down $2 to $4 at the local coffee shop instead of buying their own espresso coffee makers . If you are one of these people that for whatever reason still has not purchased an espresso machine, stay tuned.

Of course, you don't want to just throw money at the first espresso coffee machine that comes along. You need to decide how lazy you want to be with your espresso machine. Odds are that the reason you don't own one has some correlation to not wanting to spend a whole lot of time making your espresso. But just in case you are interested in all of the details of making espresso, we'll discuss manual espresso coffee makers too.

Manual espresso coffee makers basically require you to already have your coffee beans ground and to manually put the grounds and the water in the machine. Also, if you like frothing, most of these have a pump you can use to add frothing.

For a little more convenience, you can get a mostly automatic espresso maker. To use these machines, you have a pump you start and then wait about thirty seconds for extraction. These are about the most popular home espresso coffee machines because they are inexpensive and relatively small. For a little more money, you can get a slightly larger mostly automatic espresso machine that has self on-off control built in as well.

Of course, if you are a true espresso aficionado and you spend a lot of money on espresso already, you might as well have an automatic one that will make you that perfect espresso each time at whatever time you have espressos scheduled. How automatic is automatic? The thing taps right into your plumbing. You just have to occasionally check your coffee bean reservoir and disposal bin.
