Coffee Makers Macchine da Caffe by Enrico Maltoni and Mauro Carli is the culmination of two years in-depth research carried out all over the world. Many of these rare and valuable machines were photographed in the homes of the most important collectors. A truly unique encyclopaedia with thousands of images featuring original documents - patents, catalogues, manuals, advertising postcards, operating diagrams - and detailed technical captions. A great read, packed with interesting information and anecdotes which have never before been published. Four hundred years of history, from the origins of coffee with its complicated ceremonies and simple equipment, to today's electric espresso machines.
An exhaustive work for coffee lovers, which will also be of interest to those who are just discovering the fascinating machines used for the daily ritual of coffee preparation. Coffee Makers is split into various important historical periods and showcases all the different kinds of coffee makers produced to date.
