Which coffee maker suits me?

There are so many ways to make coffee and how should you choose a coffee maker and which one suits you? It is easier to answer that question when you know what kind of coffee you like.

A strong espresso creates a completely different taste sensation than a full-bodied filter coffee. Sure, the coffee beans and the way they are roasted also have a lot of influence on the taste, but you choose those depending on the brewing method. To get clear about which coffee maker is right for you, we would like to give you more information about the different options.

Coffee bean machine

A fully automatic coffee bean machine is ideal if you like not too much hassle. You don't have to grind the coffee beans yourself and the ground coffee is also perfectly dosed. As a result, you also don't need measuring spoons and the like. A coffee bean machine that is fully automatic comes in two varieties. One brews the ground coffee under high pressure, which makes for a delicious espresso, for example, and the other has the drip principle of a filter coffee maker. A coffee bean machine is therefore suitable if you like convenience and espresso or filter coffee!

Filter coffee maker

The old-fashioned filter coffee has had a lot to endure in recent years. All the criticism levied against it was largely due to the hype of espresso. This coffee brewed under high pressure has rapidly conquered our country and is now the basis of many specialty coffees. But fortunately, filter coffee has endured, because a good filter coffee maker still produces delicious coffee!

How the coffee maker works? In the filter, which in many cases is made of paper but can also be made of reusable materials, the right amount of ground coffee is scooped, you adjust your amount of water to the coffee, you turn on the device, the heating element heats up the water and this slowly drips into the filter. The filter with the coffee in it catches the water and ensures that the coffee enters the coffee pot dosed with flavorful aromas. Do you want freshly ground coffee? Then you can choose a fully automatic coffee maker with filter or buy a separate coffee grinder. Filter coffee is back from never really being gone!

Cappuccino machine

We have already mentioned the espresso that is put under high pressure and forms the basis for numerous coffee specialties, a cappuccino device is the result of this. A cup of coffee with warm and frothed milk is wonderful if you don't like a stiff container, such as an espresso can be, for example. The milk strengthens the sturdy character of an espresso, but also makes it wonderfully creamy. A good cappuccino does not necessarily put you with a cappuccino device, you can also use a percolator with a separate milk frother.

Espresso machine

Do you want yourself a real one barista feel? Then purchase an espresso machine! You put a cup of coffee or espresso as you get it in a cafe or restaurant. You put finely ground espresso beans in the filter carrier, also called piston, you light lightly so that you get a nice even surface, you turn it in the device and turn it on. It depends on your espresso machine or the water supply automatically or that you do this manually, but in both cases the water goes through the coffee with a pressure of around 15 bar. The pressure ensures the beautiful cream layer on the espresso. An espresso machine requires some actions and precision, this is something you need to want. But if you go for it, you are assured of a delicious cup of cup!
