Espresso Makers
![]() DID YOU KNOW? That a coffee’s caffeine levels are affected by how long they were cooked and Espresso stays the longest that’s why they have less caffeine content. With so many different coffee brews and processes just what is an Espresso and what sets it apart from ordinary coffee? The first difference is in the creation and roasting of the coffee beans. As you know makers of coffee keep their drying and roasting a very well guarded secret but an espresso is roasted much longer than coffee until the beans are very dark and almost oily. The grind of an espresso class coffee is fine. The reason why is because the finer it is the more pressure it takes and the slower the coffee comes out which makes for a good shot of espresso.
The other noticeable difference is in how they are served and prepared. Coffee can be brewed pretty much anyway you want it but an espresso is made when you take those finely ground beans and put it under high hot water pressure. It is served either as a single shot or double shot which differs not in the amount of cups or water but the amount of espresso coffee beans put in a single press of cup. |
