Espressos are made by brewers capable of sending pressurized hot water through very fine coffee grounds. On one hand, the quality of an espresso is largely based on the quality of coffee bean used. However, it’s also heavily influenced by the performance of the espresso machine being used.
As compared to coffee, there are more variables that are involved in the brewing process. As such, most espresso machines carry a heftier price tag than coffee machines of the same quality.
What to Look for in a Good Espresso Machine
Below are some important things to consider when purchasing a good espresso machine.
-
Type of Espresso Machine
There are three main types of espresso machines: manual, semi-automatic, and super-automatic.
Manual machines require the user to control the entire brewing process, while semi-automatic machines allow the user to control the brewing time and the amount of water used. The most convenient option is the super-automatic espresso machine. They essentially do everything for you, including grinding the beans, tamping the grounds, and brewing the espresso. However, these automated features come at the expense of being able to control and customize the different variables of the espresso brewing process.
-
Price
Espresso machines can range in price from under $100 to over $5,000. The price will depend on the type of machine, as well as the features and quality. Determine how much you are willing to spend before you start shopping. If you’ve found an espresso machine you’re interested in but it falls just outside of your budget, see if a refurbished version of it is available.
-
Size and Capacity
Consider the size of the machine and how much space you have available in your kitchen. Also, think about how many cups of espresso you will be making at one time. Some machines are designed for single servings, while others can make multiple cups at once.
-
Boiler Type
The boiler is what heats the water for the espresso.
As its name suggests, a single boiler espresso machine has only one boiler. This means that this single boiler is responsible for both brewing and steaming milk. The boiler has to be switched back and forth between the two functions, which results in a longer wait time between brewing and steaming. This type of machine is usually less expensive and more compact.
On the other hand, a double boiler espresso machine has two separate boilers: one for brewing and one for steaming milk. This allows the machine to maintain a constant temperature for each function, resulting in a quicker and more efficient brewing process. Additionally, with a double boiler machine, you can steam milk while simultaneously brewing espresso, which is ideal for making multiple drinks at once. Double boiler are larger and more expensive than single boilers.
-
Pressure and Temperature Control
Espresso requires high pressure and precise temperature to extract the flavors properly. Look for machines that allow you to adjust the pressure and temperature to your liking. Machines with PID (Proportional-Integral-Derivative) controllers are the most accurate and provide the most consistent results.
-
Milk Frothing Capability
If you like cappuccinos or lattes, you will want a machine that has a milk frothing wand. Some machines have automatic frothing capabilities, while others require you to manually froth the milk. If you want to steam or froth your milk separately, you can always purchase a separate milk frother.
-
Ease of Use and Cleaning
Espresso machines require regular cleaning and maintenance to ensure that they function properly. Look for machines that are easy to use and easy to clean. Removable parts and dishwasher-safe components can make cleaning easier.
