About espresso coffee

The Sunbeam range of espresso machines
are sure to satisfy lovers of coffee. With its
Italian designed and made 15 BAR pump,
a thermoblock heating system and Italian
designed 'crema' system the Sunbeam
Piccolo Espresso ® will provide endless cups
of quality coffee.
Coffee is an integral part of Australian
culture. With café numbers increasing, the
demand for the perfect cup combined with
the right atmosphere is the goal of many
coffee connoisseurs.
What makes a good coffee?
Sunbeam have consulted with experienced
coffee makers and appreciators of coffee
through every stage of design, to ensure the
machine delivers a great coffee every time.
There are many factors that contribute to the
perfect coffee. The words' 'taste' and 'aroma'
are consistently used when describing the
perfect cup.
The sweet aroma and taste of the perfect
coffee is largely due to the correct
combination of temperature and pressure
during the brewing process. The thermoblock
heating system ensures the water is at the
correct temperature, so that the full coffee
flavour is extracted.
Secondly, the combination of the Italian
designed and made 15 BAR pump, Italian
designed dual-wall filter and stabilising baffle
ensures the correct pressure at which the liquid
espresso is released from the spout. The flow
should consist of both liquid and cream. This
cream is commonly known as the 'crema'. The
perfect 'crema' should be thick and stable
and preserve the coffee flavour, aroma and
temperature.
We hope you have many enjoyable coffee
experiences with the Sunbeam Piccolo
Espresso ®.
