I'm not overly keen on that type of coffee machine. They are however still infinitely better than Nescafé Blend 43 and International Roast.
Here's my coffee machine complete with black pearl chillies that I'm drying.
What's the difference between a coffee maker and an espresso machine.
Pressure. Espresso machines have around 15 bars of pressure, coffee makers just drip hot water through the ground coffee.
So you can make coffee in an Espresso machine, but not espresso in a coffee maker?

@Dashrender Pretty much, expresso has a lot of milk as well.

Not really. Can't drip through any espresso maker that I know.

so dripping is important to normal coffee? you can't or rather, don't want to put it under pressure?
I'm basically curious where there are these two rather substantial differences in the way they are brewed?

say what? I know tons of Italians who don't drink any milk with their espresso. that's why they have those tiny cups.

Sounds like a bunch of Dilbertesque management happening.

huh? If you order espresso, by definition... no milk.

Well we call normal coffee "drip coffee" so that's one and the same. But it is more than espresso machines don't have the capability to drip. It's just not part of the mechanisms. Would be very complex to do.

The pressure, combined with the finely ground coffee, gives espresso its creamy texture. Regular coffee just requires steeping or soaking in hot water and results in a different end product. If you use one of the "pour over" coffee makers (filter that sits on a cup), it's basically like drip coffee.

Well....
Drip Coffee
- Water is very hot normally
- Water is dripped without pressure through grounds
- Ground are course
- Grounds are not backed
Espresso
- Water is not very hot
- Water is pressurized and forced through the grounds
- Grounds are fine
- Grounds are tightly backed

I can only imagine that he is at university and this is homework from a professor who heard a few words and thought that this would sound reasonable.

Cafe con leche or caffe con latte are espresso with milk.

Now it's a challenge to see how long you can warm the chair before springing up to your next meeting, lol.

Just tagged these three on SW and thought that the number of followers was interesting... @Scale and @StarWind_Software clearly leading Simplivity.

Getting ready for a phone call to see if I can help out a guy with some weird PBX issues.
Extensions continuing to ring after the ring group that sent the call was already answered.

Flat White, cappuccino, Café Latté, macchiato... all start out as a shot of espresso... well except for the flat white, which is a double shot but you get the idea.
