According to a recent NCA (National Coffee Association) survey, 62% of Americans drink coffee at least once daily, and seven in ten drink coffee weekly. A large number of those people prefer it in espresso form, which utilizes a pressurized brewing technique to produce a tiny, rich shot of coffee. Most devices allow users to pull an espresso shot, brew drip coffee, or froth milk for cappuccinos and lattes.
Choosing the right coffee and espresso machine allows a user to create a perfect espresso at home and tamp, extract, and grind the correct number of beans for the device (dosing). Here are different types of coffee and espresso machines that will help any coffee drinker get a desirable espresso or coffee.
