Coffee is the favorite drink of many of us. There are many options for its preparation, one of the popular devices to facilitate this process is a carob-type coffee machine. About it and talk.
Principle of operation of a carob machine
In such a coffee maker, ground coffee is prepared under high pressure. There is a carob coffee machine from a water tank, a boiler where water is heated to 95 ° C, pressure pumps and a horn. The horn is a small round container with a handle, to which ground coffee is poured. When the appliance is switched on through the horn from the coffee, water flows under the pressure of steam generated by the boiling of water. An invigorating drink, cooked in this way, turns out to be especially tasty, as the steam "takes" at the coffee a maximum of essential oils. The presence of a characteristic foam is considered to be a plus of a carob coffee machine, which is why this coffee maker is also called "espresso".
How to choose a coffee machine for home?
The main parameter when choosing a carob is the pressure indicator. In low-power models (up to 1000 W), the pressure reaches 3.5-4 bar. The quality of the drink is far from perfect. More powerful coffee machines (1200-1700 W) brew coffee under pressure to 10-15 bar, thanks to which the result is a drink of incredible taste. When buying the device, pay attention to the material from which the horn is made. The metal horn is more reliable. In addition, the taste of coffee in coffee makers with a metal horn is much better than for appliances with a plastic part.
Not bad if the model you choose will be equipped with a cappuccino ( cappuccino nozzle), water temperature and level indicators, a safety valve, a function for preparing coffee beans (pre-packaged coffee beans).
Now many coffee machines are produced. The coffee machine De Longhi, for example, is equipped with a Crema device, which creates an excellent coffee foam, and Cappuccino - milk. The Saeco locating machine has a panarello attachment that will decorate your coffee with luscious milk foam. A high-quality drink will also be prepared with carob coffee machines Gaggia, Phillips-Saego, Krups, Melitta, Bork.
