Comparison Electrolux KBC85X vs Electrolux EBC85X

This parameter is relevant for espresso coffee makers and geyser models — where coffee is prepared at increased steam pressure. In the second case, this parameter can be ignored — in "geysers" the extraction of soluble substances from coffee occurs mainly due to high temperature. But for espresso coffee makers, pressure is a key characteristic. All such devices can be divided into two categories. The first is the entry-level models, in which the pressure is only 4 – 5 bar. Such a modest figure is compensated by the high temperature of the steam, due to which the coffee aroma is relatively weak, but quite a lot of caffeine is extracted into the drink. More advanced espresso makers provide 15 bar and even higher (19 bar and 20 bar); this significantly affects the cost, but the coffee turns out to be as rich and aromatic as possible.
