By William A. Hall


Coffee is one of the widely famous beverages and a couple of years ago, there were not many changes in 'Coffee' and you knew how a coffee was made and how it tasted. As the times have changed, so has several things which include the many types of coffees which is presently available in the modern world, one of the very well-known kinds is called the Espresso. This coffee is made via a very special equipment called as the Espresso Machine.

Making a delectable espresso is the work of a master and it is purely referred to as a craft. Specialized people operate the espresso machines and they are called as the Baristas. The way in which the espresso machine works and how an espresso is prepared is mainly named as 'pulling a shot'. This is because the olden kinds of espresso machines had a long handle with them which was used to prepare an espresso.
It will be surprising to note that the espresso machine was discovered way back in 1901 and later on an array of espresso machines have been made, each one having advanced and sophisticated features and uses. The taste and flavor of an espresso varies with the fineness of the grind, the pressure which helps to grind or the pressure alone.

A well-made espresso is the one wherein the baristas make it right on to its glass which clearly helps to maintain the espresso at its high temperature. Certain espresso machines are attached with an additional part referred to as the Steam Wand which is used to create froth in beverages which use milk and cream like the lattes and cappuccinos.

It is fascinating to realize that there are several kinds of espresso machines prepared with the only concern of satisfying the demands of the many types of customers. One of the primitive forms of espresso machines is the Steam-driven espresso machine wherein water is used to push into the coffee and this is achieved by the force of steam or steam pressure.

Piston-driven espresso machines are a standard one and are quite similar to the recent types of espresso makers. This machine initiated the use of crema which was not utilized before and was thrown off as an inedible item. Crema greatly enhanced the taste of espresso and helped to produce a fine shot of espresso.

The Stovetop espresso makers are greatly utilized in the countries of Italy, Spain and Portugal. They are also commonly known as the Moka pots and produce a darker kind of coffee which has its extraction ration quite identical to the standard espresso makers. Usually, Moka pots are discouraged from use because they can prepare only low quality espressos as the machine uses intense temperature and inadequate pressure.

The contemporary models of espresso machines were fitted with retrofits or PID controllers which helped to maintain a balance to the rising temperature and in turn helped to brew high quality espresso with an extraction consistency. Even though the PID controllers
