A coffeemaker, coffee maker or coffee machine is a cooking appliance used to brew coffee. While there are many different types of coffeemakers, the two most common brewing principles use gravity or pressure to move hot water through coffee grounds. In the most common devices, coffee grounds are placed into a paper or metal filter inside a funnel, which is set over a glass or ceramic coffee pot, a cooking pot in the kettle family. Cold water is poured into a separate chamber, which is then boiled and directed into the funnel and allowed to drip through the grounds under gravity. This is also called automatic drip-brew. Coffee makers that use pressure to force water through the coffee grounds are called espresso makers, and they produce espresso coffee.
Types
Vacuum brewers
On 27 August 1930, Inez H. Peirce of Chicago, Illinois, filed her patent for the first vacuum coffee maker that truly automated the vacuum brewing process, while eliminating the need for a stovetop burner or liquid fuels.[1]
Cafetiere
A cafetiere (coffee plunger, French press in US English) requires coffee of a coarser grind than does a drip brew coffee filter, as finer grounds will seep through the press filter and into the drink.[2]
Because the coffee grounds remain in direct contact with the brewing water and the grounds are filtered from the water via a mesh instead of a paper filter, coffee brewed with the cafetiere captures more of the coffee's flavour and essential oils, which would become trapped in a traditional drip brew machine's paper filters.[3] As with drip-brewed coffee, cafetiere coffee can be brewed to any strength by adjusting the amount of ground coffee which is brewed. If the used grounds remain in the drink after brewing, French pressed coffee left to stand can become "bitter", though this is an effect that many users of cafetiere consider beneficial. For a 1⁄2-litre (0.11 imp gal; 0.13 US gal) cafetiere, the contents are considered spoiled, by some reports, after around 20 minutes.[4]
Drip Coffee Maker
It operates by dripping water over ground coffee, allowing the brewed coffee to drip into a carafe or pot below.
Single-serve coffeemaker
The single-serve or single-cup coffeemaker had gained popularity by the 2000s.[5]
It is also known as pod coffee makers. These machines use pre-packaged coffee pods or capsules to prepare a single cup of coffee at a time.
Espresso Machine
Espresso machines are designed to make strong and concentrated coffee known as espresso.
French Press
It is also called a press pot or plunger pot, a French press uses a cylindrical glass or stainless steel container with a plunger and metal mesh filter to brew coffee.
Pour-Over Coffee Maker
This method involves manually pouring hot water over coffee grounds using a cone-shaped funnel or dripper. It gives the user more control over the brewing process.
Aero Press
The Aero Press is a portable coffee maker that uses air pressure to push water through coffee grounds, resulting in a quick and rich cup of coffee.
Percolator
Percolators work by cycling boiling water through the coffee grounds using gravity, creating a strong and often bold-flavored coffee.
Moka Pot
Also known as a stovetop espresso maker, the Moka pot brews strong coffee by passing boiling water pressurized by steam through ground coffee.
Cold Brew Maker
Cold brew makers steep coffee grounds in cold water for an extended period, usually 12-24 hours, resulting in a smooth and less acidic coffee concentrate.
Siphon Coffee Maker
Siphon or vacuum coffee makers use a combination of vapor pressure and vacuum suction to brew coffee. They are known for their theatrical brewing process.
Turkish Coffee Pot
Used for making traditional Turkish coffee, this pot is designed to brew very finely ground coffee with water and sugar, usually without a filter.
Iced Coffee Maker
These machines are specifically designed to brew coffee that's meant to be served over ice, maintaining its strength and flavor even when diluted.
