The long-running espresso machine brand Faema has returned to the home coffee station market with its introduction of the Faemina, a single group espresso machine with a double boiler.

The new model takes a new spin on the classic Faema designs, which are based on the trusty spring level model found on most of their products since the 1950s. The Faemina brings the brand into the modern world with robust automation features and veers even further away from traditional coffee makers by accommodating pour-over style coffee. While the Faemina has a very traditional aesthetic, the machine seamlessly fuses it with modern features and compatibility that has excited coffee lovers.

The Faemina boasts a built-in water reservoir that allows users to program different specific temperatures for delivering water either to the brewing group or sending it to a separate hot water tap. Studies have shown that the water temperature plays a huge role in the flavor of a coffee drink Trusted Source Brew temperature, at fixed brew strength and extraction, has little impact on the sensory profile of drip brew coffee | Scientific Reports There is little empirical evidence in terms of rigorous sensory descriptive analysis or consumer preference testing, however, to support any particular range of brew temperatures.

The Faemina is also equipped with a water softening system to prevent the build-up of minerals in the machine, which could cause clogging down the line. The system is also designed to protect the internal parts of the coffee machine and purify the water further for a cleaner and more concentrated taste.

While the roast of the coffee has a strong effect on the final flavor Trusted Source Light roast versus dark roast coffee: Understanding different types of coffee | CNN Underscored With lots of people now brewing their own coffee at home, it’s time to start understanding different types of coffee, including the biggest question: What’s the difference between light roast and dark roast? us.cnn.com , the method of brewing also plays a significant role. Users who prefer lighter coffee drinks that aren’t as strong have the freedom to use the filter coffee feature. To use this feature, all the user has to do is place the pour-over cone underneath the group head and begin making coffee. When using the Faemina, users aren’t just limited to making strong and bold espresso shots. Users can customize and tweak specific parameters such as bloom phase, pause intervals, water quantity, and even the flow rate of the machine.

The Faemina also has an adjustable drip tray that users can move up and down. This allows the coffee machine to accommodate different cup sizes, allowing for much more versatility. The versatility of the Faemina is a huge step for word for Faema, which is commonly known for its traditional approach to the espresso machine.

With the Faemina, customers get the best of both worlds. It still boasts the key features that have made Faema one of the most popular brands on the market while also having modern automated features to give users a much easier time when brewing their coffee.

The fusion of control and convenience is a major aspect of the Faemina. In the words of the Faema Faemina Project Brand Manager Maria Rinaldi, “All the parameters are customizable. Faema wants to offer to its user a coffee experience characterized by a diversified menu, from the highest quality espresso with professional extraction like at the coffee shop, to an automatic brewing option.”

Faema’s entrance into the modern landscape of coffee making has excited coffee lovers all over the world. Users get to enjoy the superior build quality, strength, and robust control features of other Faema machines without sacrificing convenience and flexibility. With Faema introducing the world to a whole new generation of home espresso machines, the future of brewing coffee in the comfort of one’s own kitchen is beginning to look brighter and brighter.
