DRIP COFFEE
A wonderful start of the day
Originated from the English word “Drip”, this Coffee is mostly known in the world as “American Coffee” and is a coffee prepared in an automatic electric coffee maker, which is also called “Filter Coffee”, “Filtered Coffee” and “Automatic Coffee”. :
Currently, there are many drip coffee makers all over the world equipped with various functions and modes of operation to suit all tastes and pockets.
The principle of the coffee maker is simple enough. A paper filter in the form of a basket or a funnel is placed in a special drawer, into which the necessary amount of ground coffee is placed. Then the necessary volume of water is poured into the appropriate container. The device is connected to the power. With the help of a special heater, the water begins to boil, turning into steam and rising through the pipe. The steam in the upper part of the coffee maker, is cooling slightly, becoming again into a near the boiling temperature water and flowing down, passing through the coffee and infusing it. The brewed coffee drips into the container under the coffee maker, and the coffee grounds remain in the paper filter.
This coffee is very widely used all over the world.
The roots of drip coffee go back to the 19th century. Back then, English scientist Benjamin Rumford formulated the principle of coffee making in his work on coffee and its preparation. That is, the hot water should slowly pass through the freshly ground coffee in the filter, infusing it.
The first drip coffee maker was invented in 1800 by the French Archbishop Jean-Baptiste de Bellois. In this device, the hot water, passing drop by drop through the coffee, was collected in another container.
But in 1827, Parisian jeweler Jacques-Augustin Gande invented a coffee maker that allowed hot water to rise up a tube and pour over the coffee. Then another Frenchman named Nicolas Felix Durand perfected it.
Edward Lawsell de Santais improved the designs of his predecessors by replacing water with steam and presented it at the Paris Exhibition in 1855.
Later, with further improvement, the first electric coffee maker was created in the USA in 1908 by the “Universal” Company. However, it was not automatic and the operation of the device had to be monitored in order to turn it off on time.
And only in 1952, the American Russell Hobbs made the coffee maker fully automatic using a bimetallic contact, which turned off the device at the temperature of coffee preparation.
- Place the paper filter in the appropriate drawer;
- Pour the required amount of freshly ground coffee into the filter;
- Close the lid;
- Fill the required volume of water into the appropriate container;
- Close the lid and connect the coffee maker to the electricity (if necessary, select the appropriate program if the coffee maker is equipped with special programs);
- After the sound or light signal of the coffee maker, turn off the coffee maker from the power (or leave it on, if the coffee maker is equipped with a special program to keep the coffee warm);
- Wait about half a minute until the coffee “rests”;
- Pour the coffee into cups and serve.

– American Coffee is often confused with “Americano” coffee. The American Coffee is actually a drip coffee, while Americano is made by mixing hot water with Espresso Coffee.
– In the US, drip coffee became very popular due to the belief that coffee made with this method contains less caffeine than espresso, but in fact the opposite is true.
– The world’s first real-time video camera was installed in Cambridge University, England. With its help, the University employees monitored the contents of the automatic coffee maker installed in the “Trojan Room”.
– By the paper filter, oil compounds “Cafestrol” and “Kahweol”, which increase blood cholesterol level, are filtered from coffee.
– Coffee prepared by drip method or electric automatic coffee maker is often called “Filter Coffee”.
