Grind: This is finely tweaked and adjusted to get the most out of the particular bean and roast blends. Any change in the beans requires a re-adjustment of the grind to get the optimal flavour from the brewing process.
Water Temperature: Many traditional coffee machines, such as drip coffee makers, boil the water and then run it through the coffee. Even stove-top espresso makers do this. Scientific testing however, has shown that the optimal temperature for the water in brewing espresso coffee is 94 to 96 degrees Celsius. This is significantly below the common boiling point of typical urban mineralized and treated water. Any coffee machine that runs boiling water through ground coffee cannot make an optimal coffee. Our machines heat the water to precisely the right temperature and keep it there with a sophisticated control system.
Pressure: What happens when you use a traditional European stove top espresso machine? The water heats to boiling and then suddenly gets forced through the coffee and filter in the machine at great uncontrolled pressure. The final result depends on the temperature of the stove top element, the material used to make the coffee pot and even on how tightly the top was screwed to the bottom of the pot! A different result is certain almost every time due to all the variables. Research has shown that optimal water pressure for espresso coffee is 8 to 9 atmospheres. The best cup of coffee absolutely requires the use of the correct water pressure to coax the complex mix of oils and chemicals that form the cream out into your cup. And since the cream is the first thing to coat the tongue upon tasting the coffee, using the correct pressure ensures the fullest, most flavorful and most consistent crema possible from the brew.mmmm.... don't you just feel like having a cup?
