Today, espresso is commonly made in two ways- using a stovetop espresso makes or using an electric machine.
The stove-top espresso maker heats water in the lowermost chamber until it is forced up through the filter, which contains grounds of espresso roast coffee. Once the espresso reaches the top chamber, it can be conveniently poured out through the spout. A quality steel stove-top espresso maker will only take a few minutes to make a quality demitasse of espresso.
Some stove-top espresso makers also have a valve that can be used for steaming milk for cappuccinos. If your model doesn’t have this value, you may use an electric device that steams milk by heating water in a chamber and forcing it through a valve by steam pressure.
If you’re in the market for an electric espresso coffee, you will find that there are multiple options out there with widely ranging prices. There are also plenty of cheap ones out there that work just as well as the costly ones. The electric espresso machines have a valve for steaming milk, which makes the work easier for you.
The espresso machine you choose to buy will largely depend on your budget and your seriousness. I personally know quite a few coffee enthusiasts who are not satisfied by the cheap espresso makers and are only satisfied by powerful espresso machines.
