2. Coffee Maker - Basics

Coffee Maker - Basics A kitchen appliance for brewing coffee. There are many types of coffee makers ranging from simple percolators and French press plunger pots to technologically advanced drip maker with auto-timers, clocks and radios. The taste of any given coffee can be affected dramatically by the method and tools used to brew it.

3. History

History The first coffee maker was first invented in Paris in 1818 by a gentleman named Laurens. This coffee maker was the first percolator type design. Over the next one hundred and fifty years the percolator based coffee pots continued to be developed. Many homes and restaurants had switched to the percolator based system from the old method of boiling water.

A major advancement came in the 1960’s when the modern filter type coffee maker was developed. Many companies jumped on this new design and developed it even more.

Perhaps the most well know coffee maker is the Mr. Coffee. Along with developing new more compact and efficient coffee makers the Mr. Coffee company realized the value of there brand name and advertising. Mr. Coffee made the wise move in 1974 of signing Joe DiMaggio as the spokesperson for the company. This relationship would propel sales of coffee makers to heights never seen. It was now in to drink coffee and sales of the drink went through the roof.

4. Types of Coffee Makers

There are many types of coffee makers around, ranging from the prehistoric percolator to the technologically automated drip maker. Each type makes a different tasting cup of coffee. Try them and you'll taste the difference.


Percolator
Coffee percolator pots are a favorite brewing method of many, offering ease of use, convenient serving and robust coffee flavor. Water is added to the base then the reusable metal filer basket is installed and filled with medium-coarse ground coffee. As the water heats it rises through a tube showering the ground coffee, and then drips back into the base. This process is repeated until coffee brewing is complete.

Automatic Drip
Drip brew is a method for brewing coffee which involves pouring water over coffee contained in a filter. Water seeps through the coffee, absorbing its oils and essences, solely under gravity then passes through the bottom of the filter. The used coffee grounds are retained in the filter with the liquid falling (dripping) into a collecting vessel such as a carafe or pot.
French Press or Plunger
French presses create a smooth, pure coffee flavor using a simple but effective process. Simply pour hot water into the carafe, add coarse ground coffee directly into the water then install the lid/plunger assembly. After the coffee has brewed for about 3-4 minutes press down the plunger. A fine mesh screen forces the grounds to the bottom and your coffee is ready to enjoy.
Greek or Turkish Briki
The ibrik was designed to brew coffee on the hot desert sands but can now be used with a stove burner. It is a long-handled pot that contains a brass, copper, or stainless steel container. The ibrik is slender at the top with a wider base at the bottom. These dimensions are essential in the proper brewing of Turkish coffee. The pot is quiet small, although there is now a variety of ibriks that have different sizes that can be used depending on the number of people one wants to serve, and the ibrik contains a grooved lid for pouring. Still popular in the Middle East, the ibrik is an excellent way to brew Turkish coffee or Greek coffee, which is actually just a variation of Turkish coffee. The coffee made with an ibrik is renowned for its foam, which many feel is the best part of the drink.
