What's the difference between an Italian coffee maker and an American coffee maker?

There are many kinds of coffee machines in the current market, and there are a variety of machines, such as semi-automatic and fully automatic machines, double-headed and single-headed coffee pots, etc., which can be divided into Italian type and American style according to region. They have their own differences among these machines, and what are the differences? Below, the author will take Italian and American machines as examples to share with you.

one。 Italian coffee maker

Italian coffee machine, as its name implies, is a machine produced in Italy, and the professional semi-automatic coffee machine produced in Italy has a good reputation in the coffee industry. The machine usually has the function of a boiler to generate hot water, which presses the hot water to about 9 atmospheric pressure and then flows into the powdered coffee in the metal filter to brew the coffee. The coffee brewed with this kind of pressurized hot water is thicker than other coffees and has emulsified oil, so it is often called espresso or espresso. Generally speaking, if you want to drink such high-quality coffee, you have to go to a professional coffee shop or coffee bar to drink it, which is generally very difficult to drink at home. So this machine is generally used to open professional coffee shops, hotels or some coffee enthusiasts.

two。 American coffee machine

The American coffee machine is generally divided into upper and lower layers. when using this machine to make coffee, you have to put the ground coffee powder in the upper funnel container of the filter paper or metal filter, and the lower layer is a coffee pot made of glass or ceramic. Then pour the cold water into another separate interval? heat the water to about 90 degrees Celsius when starting the coffee and gradually introduce it into the funnel-shaped container. Let the hot water flow through the coffee powder into the coffee pot below. Generally speaking, the machine has the characteristics of easy to use and high production efficiency, so it is mostly used by family users. The coffee extracted by the American coffee machine at an atmospheric pressure does not produce rich oil, and its taste is generally light, but its taste is also accepted by most coffee lovers.

To sum up, I believe you have more or less understood some of the differences between Italian coffee machines and American coffee machines. at the same time, there is a choice when buying machines in the future. if it is for family use, you should buy American machines, and if you open a coffee shop or hotel, you should buy Italian semi-automatic machines.
