Most people know about coffee that it has to be black, strong or long, with milk or cream. And after consuming it, they just say whether it was good or not and forget the taste instantly. Preparing coffee is not just a simple push of a button, it can be taken to the level of art. Depending on what you would like to drink, know that you can opt for one of the following ways of preparing coffee:
 
 
ESPRESSO Machines

If you are a fan of strong and bitter essences, you will want an intense and aromatic espresso, which, depending on the machine with which it is extracted, can have an intense taste and aroma. The special feature of the espresso process is that the preparation process is very fast – under 30 seconds for a good extraction – and the coffee has 18% less caffeine than the extraction types. The caramel-colored cream that forms on top of the espresso often speaks of its quality.

A classic way of extracting coffee over fire, which results in a strong, intense, concentrated coffee that, through the refinement of the extraction, can become extremely tasty. Cold water is placed in the bottom compartment of the machine, and through the boiling process it rises through a central tube to pour over the coffee powder, then passes through the filter, reaches the top. This method, known as filtering, is very widespread, and the result is very close to espresso.

FRENCH PRESS

It is one of the simplest ways to obtain excellent coffee at home, which has the advantage of being able to prepare a larger quantity, up to about 8 cups at once. Another advantage is that you can easily put the French press in any luggage and you can make a good coffee wherever you are. The perfect coffee recipe obtained by this method is found after several experiments and "playing" with the dosages.

NEAPOLITAN

The Neapolitan coffee maker is the "ancestor" of the Mokka coffee maker, which appeared about 20 years before it, at the beginning of the century, obviously, in Naples. Initially, the container was made of fired clay, then it changed to copper and remains a symbol of the tradition of preparing a very strong coffee.

CLEVER DRIPPER

The device is a relatively recent invention and combines the dipping and draining methods. Depending on the amount of ground coffee used and the method of pouring hot water, you can choose the intensity and final amount of the drink. The coffee prepared at Clever is more consistent, and is between French Press and V60. He has no body, but he has a body.

SIPHON

The most spectacular way to make coffee is the one called Syphon. It is a device consisting of two glass containers that can be threaded into each other and a heat source that heats everything up. Siphon is a method used for almost 200 years, which generates different flavors than an espresso, for example. So if you want a show at the table, whether you're at the cafe or at home, choose a Syphon. It's a brew method, gentler on the taste buds and in a quantity large enough to be enjoyed leisurely with pleasant stories.
