Coffee and Espresso Machines

Espresso machines make use of pressure to force water through finely ground and tamped coffee beans. They make a rich and flavorful brew.

It works with an average of nine bars of pressure. The machines come with a variety of features, including the control of temperature and brew strength, programmable brewing and various sizes of drinks.

Functions

The hot-water tubing, also known as the insulated tubing, runs from the reservoir to the spout at the top of your machine. The resistance heating element warms the water as water passes through the aluminum tube and metal warming plate.

After the spout has turned on then place your cup under the spout, so that the espresso flows into your drink through the portafilter. The coffee maker also has an steam wand can be used to heat and froth milk for espresso-based beverages such as cappuccino and the latte.
