Ever since the wondrous discovery of coffee there have been new and innovative ways to brew this traditional morning beverage appearing on a yearly if not monthly basis. From its adoption by modern culture and its widespread influence across the world, coffee has become a common beverage found in nearly every cupboard and pantry alike. What has changed even more than the drink itself however is the means by which it is made.
Coffee is coffee to some people. It doesn’t matter how it’s made so long as it is strong enough and good enough to consume and offer a pleasant jolt of caffeine to liven one’s day. For those who actually do care about how their coffee is made and the quality that goes into the process it comes down the coffee maker and what functions it might possess to insure a good cup of brew. In the beginning coffee was served in very simple vessels that were made for one purpose, making the coffee.
In the modern era a coffee maker must often do much more in order to appease the serious coffee drinker. Many feature timers so that a person can set their desired brew time and not worry over forgetting to make the coffee, while others come with radios, temperature gauges, and various other additions that can often detract from the simplest act they’ve been created for: making coffee. The aesthetics alone are enough to drive the prices of many units up through the roof, while in truth all they do is perform the same function as hundreds of other coffee makers. The only difference with the high-priced models is that they are typically name brands and made, supposedly, of longer-lasting materials that won’t break down or show too much wear over time. Chances are however that you might still run the risk of trading up every two years or so.
