Coffee

Coffee is a beverage prepared from the roasted seeds of the coffee plant (generally known as coffee beans or simply, beans). Coffee can be consumed both hot and cold and is widely popular across the globe. Machines that brew coffee automatically are known as coffee machines. A coffee machine is a common appliance that can be found in most households, offices, cafés, and restaurants.

Based on the brewing technique, coffee machines are classified into drip coffee makers, vacuum brewers, etc. In a drip coffee maker, water is poured over a filter which contains the coffee. In a vacuum brewer, water is heated in a lower vessel, where expansion forces the contents up through a narrow tube into the upper vessel, which contains the ground coffee. Based on the type of coffee produced there are several types of coffee makers available like the espresso machine, cappuccino maker, standard filter coffee machine, etc. The espresso machine makes a very strong and concentrated Italian coffee drink, known as espresso. The cappuccino maker combines a shot of espresso with steamed frothy milk on top. Some of the popular manufacturers of coffee machines include Stentorfield Revive, Wega, Bravilor Bonamat, Maxpax and Gaggia among others.
