Whether you are just getting started in the coffee business or looking to set your sights high enough to one day run a coffee shop of your own, it’s never too early to start making coffee. The best way to make sure you have the best cup of coffee possible is to have it brewed and served at the same time every day. If you are the typical drinker who only drinks from one or two cups per day, it can be difficult to remember when exactly your favorite brand of coffee comes in shrink-wrapped form. When it comes down to it, your preference for black or green is going to affect which machine is best for you. With that in mind, here are some tips on how to get the most from your machine and ensure you have the freshest cup of coffee every time.

FAQs
Can you make coffee with an espresso machine?
No, you can't make a regular cup of coffee with an espresso machine, unless you have a dual purpose machine that makes both espresso and coffee. The process of making espresso is different from that of making coffee. With espresso the hot water is forced through compacted coffee grinds at pressure.
With dual purpose machines, you can make both espresso and coffee. The machine creates two separate drinks: espresso and coffee. When the machine is turned on, it produces two beverages: hot water and cold water. When the temperature drops below 32 degrees Celsius (100 degrees Fahrenheit), cold water is forced into the brew basket to create ice cubes in the glass bottle that are then added to your drink for additional ice cream flavor.
What's the difference between a coffee maker and an espresso machine?
An espresso machine uses high pressure to force water through coffee within only a few seconds. The water is forced through the coffee, which is ground with a Ninja Coffee grinder and then brewed with an espresso and milk maker.
Coffee makers come in two varieties: drip and non-drip. Drip coffee makers have a hole in the bottom that you pour boiling water into. Non-drip coffee makers have no hole in the bottom, they are just on top of your cup of coffee. They are designed to brew at least two cups of brew per minute (or half cup per minute if they’re non-drip).
Drip coffee makers require more electricity to power them than non-drip coffeemakers do, so they use less electricity overall. A lower wattage will mean less energy needs to go into your tank, so you save money overall by using less gallons of gas when brewing your own beverages!
Do you need special coffee for espresso?
In general, espresso requires a dark roast, fine grind, and high pressure to create an ounce or two of concentrated coffee. When paired with water or milk, you can have a delicious espresso drink that will give you a boost of energy—and delight your taste buds as well!
