American coffee and espresso, from the choice of coffee machine, there is a most basic difference, that is, the American drip coffee machine is generally about 100 yuan, to drink good espresso is relatively expensive. In terms of taste, American coffee is characterized by simple and quick, which is sold in general supermarkets and convenience stores; espresso is characterized by its pure and full-bodied taste. In the production process, as long as the American coffee machine puts in the ground coffee powder, adds water, turns on the machine, and waits for a while, a perfect cup of coffee can come out, which feels like brewing tea, simple and easy to control; the Italian coffee machine uses pressure to extract coffee, the speed is fast, but the program is relatively complex and requires patience.
