Jura Capresso 4 Cup Espresso & Cappuccino Machine
Your old drip coffee maker will end up in the back cupboard once you taste the smooth black espresso out of the Jura Capresso 4 Cup Espresso & Cappucino Machine. Professional quality espresso appears piping hot and fresh in the comfort of your kitchen. This machine's steam boiler system pushes perfectly heated water with a full 16 bars of pressure through your packed grounds to get that elusive exquisite golden crema on top the sign of a perfect cup. Swing the frothing nozzle to the side and and go: your steam is already there no waiting. The illuminated on switch is easy on bleary morning eyes and the safety thumb guard keeps hot used grounds from spilling. This compact unit can make an impressive 4 cappuccinos froth included in less than 5 minutes - you waited longer than that to get just one at the coffee shop. No more $5 store cappuccinos for you; make your own with your Jura Capresso!What does pressure bar mean?Pressure is the result of the packed (tamped) coffee giving the water resistance to pass through. The pump forces the water through that resistance and the power it needs to do so is commonly measured in bar (= kg per square centimeter). A pressure rating is used on most pump-driven espresso machines. 9 bar the typical accepted pressure for brewing espresso is 8.8 atmospheres of pressure or 130 pounds per square inch. Good pumps should be able to create more pressure (power) than they need to produce perfect espresso so that they don't break when the right combination (fineness and consistency of grind tamping amount of ground coffee) are not prevalent. A good pump has a capacity of creating 15 or more bars. To produce a lasting crema on top of your espresso the water should pass through the coffee at approximately 7 to 9 bars of pressure.About CapressoLaunched in 1994 Capresso provides innovative coffee equipment for professionals and home users alike.
