The Essential Process...

The range of Espresso Essential fully automated coffee machines deliver an intelligent operating system that ensures the perfect cup of espresso, cappuccino, latte, mochaccino & chocolate drinks (to name but a few) time after time, and all at the touch of a button.
simple, fast and efficient.

The Grinder

Every blend of coffee consists of different beans & roast processes. The Espresso Essential grinder adjustment sets both grind size and dosage between 6 and 11 grams to suit your individual palate requirements. For instance, if the coffee grounds are too coarse the water will run through them too quickly, making the coffee thin and weak. Alternatively if the coffee grounds are too fine, the coffee pours slowly and may become bitter. Our beans are specifically selected to suit this process.

Fresh Water for a Perfect Espresso

Next to the Espresso Essential coffee beans, water is the most important ingredient for a good cup of coffee.

The secret to making good coffee

The heart and soul of every truly automatic Espresso Essential coffee machine is the brewing unit. A worldwide patent covers this unique and very clever device with its own heated infusion chamber.

Pre-brewing for perfect espresso

The Espresso Essential pre-brewing system ensures all the aromas and flavours from the coffee bean will end up in your cup. Before the actual brewing process begins, the ground coffee is moistened with hot water, which penetrates the coffee. The brewer then forces out all of the flavours and aromas from the coffee.

Brewing time and temperature

Espresso Essential machines are designed to deliver the perfect espresso at 80 degrees Celsius and in 15 to 25 seconds. Common brewing processes can overheat the coffee and extract the espresso over too long a period, which leaves a burnt and bitter aftertaste. Espresso Essential equipment and products are designed to work together to create the perfect cup of coffee or chocolate drinks.
