Lovers of instant coffee do not really think about the difference between a coffee maker and a coffee machine, pouring coffee granules or powder with ordinary boiling water. Fans of real cappuccino or espresso purchase exclusively special devices that differ from each other in a number of technical characteristics and allow them to prepare delicious and aromatic coffee.
Coffee machines
Today there are automatic devices that independently prepare wonderful coffee drinks - coffee makers and coffee machines. Unlike a coffee maker, a coffee machine is a fully automated device that performs the entire brewing process - from grinding coffee beans to pouring the finished coffee into cups.
Coffee machines are more sophisticated than coffee makers because they have sophisticated engineering solutions.
Automatic espresso coffee machines are by far the most demanded type of coffee equipment for office and home. Coffee in them is prepared from freshly ground beans, which have a truly pure and rich taste. The coffee machines provide the ability to regulate various parameters of coffee preparation - for example, to adjust the degree of grinding of the beans, to set a certain amount of ground coffee and the amount of water for one cup of drink. Expensive models of coffee machines allow you to adjust the temperature of water heating, as well as its pressure when extracting a drink.
Coffee makers
Coffee makers, unlike coffee machines, are technically uncomplicated devices that do not require the special skills of the user who brew coffee. Today there are such types of coffee makers as Turks, French presses, as well as carob, drip and geyser devices. The rozhkovy coffee maker (in comparison with the geyser and drip coffee makers) has a more complex design, moreover, the water pressure in it is pumped by a machine, using a special pump.
To prepare a high-quality espresso in a coffee maker, its pump must develop an operating pressure of up to 15 bar.
During the preparation process, the user will have to pour the ground coffee beans into the cone filter by himself and tamp it in the correct way so that a coffee tablet is obtained. After making coffee, remove the spent coffee grounds from the coffee maker and clean the filter thoroughly. Thus, the coffee maker differs from the coffee machine in less automated operation and the need to put your hands on the brewing process. Real coffee, which can be called a true work of coffee art, is today prepared exclusively with the help of professional carob coffee machines, which are installed in prestigious restaurants and expensive coffee houses.
