A coffee machine is a device for the kitchen preparing coffee without water boil in a separate container. Although there are many different types of coffee machine with a number of different brews principles, in the most common devices, coffee grounds are placed in a paper or metal filter in a funnel, which is more than a glass or ceramic coffee machine. Cold water in a separate chamber, which is then heated to the boiling point, and set up in the funnel. This is also called automatic drip-feed system brew.
Brewing coffee through the ages
The first modern method for the production of drip coffee-brewing is more than 125 years old, and its construction had barely changed. The "Biggin", about originating in France. 1800 was a pot on two levels keep coffee in an upper compartment, in the water poured through the drain holes in the bottom of the department in the coffee machine. Around the same time, the French developed the "Pump coffee machine," in which a boiling water in the lower chamber itself forces a pipe and then trickles (filters) through the ground coffee in the lower chamber.
Vacuum brewers
Other popular coffee brewing equipment in the entire nineteenth century, including machines with different applications of the vacuum principle. The Napier Vacuum Machine, invented 1840, was an early example of this type. While the rule is too complex for everyday use, vacuum equipment were sought for the production of clear beer, and were actually quite popular until the mid-twentieth century.The principle of the brewery was a vacuum to heat water in a lower expansion forced to ship the contents through a narrow tube into an upper vessel with ground coffee. If the lower vessel was empty and enough time had elapsed brews, the heat was removed and the resulting vacuum would the coffee through a sieve back into the lower chamber, from which they could be decanted. The Bauhaus design of this device can be in the Gerhard Marcks' Sintrax coffee machine from 1925.
An early version of the technology, a balance siphon was that the two chambers arranged side by side on a kind of scale-like device, with a counterweight attached to the first (or heating) chamber. Once the near-boiling water was forced by the heating chamber in the brewing, the counterweight was activated, causing a spring tension snuffer come over the flame so that they "made" the heat, and allowing the cooled water to return to the original chamber. In this way, a kind of primitive automatic brewing method has been achieved.
Percolators
Percolators began to be developed from the mid-nineteenth century, with James Nason patenting a version in Massachusetts 1865. In both biggin and coffee machine tools, however, similar functional requirements are at the heart of the gravity or pressure is used to water in touch with coffee for a sufficient amount of time to infuse an acceptable amount of flavor, and then the same forces act, the coffee from the grounds, as far as possible, be kept separate from the finished product. Domestic electrification simplifies the operation of percolators and vacuum systems and made them ubiquitous in American homes. A crucial factor in the success of the electric coffee machine was the creation of safe and secure fuses and heaters. In an article in the house furniture Review, May 1915, Lewis Stephenson by Landers, Frary and Clark described a modular plug security, which in his company Universal equipment, and the emergence of numerous patents and innovations in the temperature and power switches for the success of many new coffee machine and vacuum. Notable new models include Farberware's Coffee Robot (in 1937), Knapp Monarch Therm---Magic (1931), and the very popular Sunbeam Coffee Master in 1940. Sunbeam was one of the first manufacturers away from the all-glass construction (desires for the maintenance of the purity of taste), nickel-plated copper.
Design considerations in coffeemakers
While coffee percolators particular were apparently locked in a very traditional design vocabulary, vacuum coffee machines were in a position to a more diverse expression, as the colonial coffee machine was not a concrete form for this type of device, the required two completely separate chambers joined in an hourglass Configuration. Interest in this technique for 1914-1916 with the increasing popularity of the "Silex" brand, based on models provided by the Massachusetts housewives Ann Bridges and Mrs. Sutton. The use of Pyrex the problem of the fragility and breakability had made that this type of machine commercially unattractive. The popularity of Pyrex glass and bullets during the Second World War, as aluminum, chromium and other metals, which in traditional percolators was limited in availability. The slim and simple shapes drew positive attention from critics design influenced by the Bauhaus functionalism, and the requirements of the war. Science influence as a motive in the post-war era design was felt in the manufacture and marketing of coffee and coffee makers. Guides stressed that the ability of the device to the standards of temperature and brewing, and the proportion of soluble elements between brew and grounds. The industrial chemist Peter Schlumbohm expressed the most purely scientific motive in his "Chemex" coffee machine, which from its initial marketing in the early 1940's used the authority of science to a sales tool that describes the product as "pharmacy way, coffee," and discuss detail about the quality of their products in the language of the laboratory: "The funnel of the CHEMEX creates ideal conditions for the hydrostatic unique ... Chemex extraction." Schlumbohm unique brewery, a single vessel shaped Plexiglas To hold a proprietary filter cone, resembled nothing more as a piece of laboratory equipment, and became wildly popular in the technology-obsessed 1950 budget.
Drip coffeemakers
A drip coffee machine can be also referred to as an dripolator. A number of different machines for the automation of these methods have been around to the middle of the 20th Century. In 1972, the first automatic drip-feed system brew coffee machine for home use, Mr. Coffee, (Brown came with an automatic drip-feed system brew machine for the commercial use in the year 1963). It combines aspects of both water flow and gutters brew seeping through the process with the additional feature of the water heater with an electrical element in a separate chamber. Since that time, the number, type and size of the devices have increased dramatically.
