What Happened to Coffee in America
What Happened to Coffee in America?
In 1990, the Rancilio Rocky Burr Grinder is introduced. It is the first “household” grinder to blur the line between commercial and home grinding appliances. The quality of the grinder is outstanding and it grinds beans at 55 grinding settings to convert coffee beans to anything from uniform coarse grinds to fine powder.
Around 1991, Saeco brings out the world’s first super automatic espresso machines designed specifically for home and small office use in Italy and America. The Incanto Deluxe includes three programmable brew settings and ceramic disc grinders. In addition, you can customize your espresso brew and the Rapid Steam® technology; it allows you to easily froth milk to quickly turn your espresso into a cappuccino or latte.
Three year later, Solis presents the SL-90 consumer espresso machine, a truly successful automatic espresso machine for the home. It gives the benefit of simple digital controls, the most powerful water pump in its class at 19 BAR, large 3.2 quart water reservoir and a thick walled brass boiler so that you can make your favorite coffee house drinks like cappuccino, lattes, cafe mochas and more.
