If you want to enjoy espresso coffee we explain the the basics for choosing equipment to brew coffee.

How do you want to brew your coffee and what effect does it have on the taste? The starting point for the best aroma of the coffee is to have a correctly freshly ground coffee and a stable temperature through the brewing process. We are often asked if it has to do with pressure, and it is true that espresso should be brewed with 8 - 10 bar water pressure. All machines that are equipped with a pump can deliver that pressure, the cheapest machines often give too high a pressure.
