High-Tech Kitchen
The Espresso of the Future

Espresso has been around for a while - since the 19th century when it was introduced by the French - but it could still be the drink of the future, especially with Bodum's new ultimate Espresso maker, the Granos Automatic. The Espresso-making process might seem complicated as observed from the customer side of the coffee shop counter, but the Granos simplifies it all down to the push of a button. The chrome-plated stainless steel machine is as high-tech in appearance as it is in function; it will fit right into today's modern kitchens. Its Thermoblock heating system allows for the most precise brewing temperature, and its 19 BAR pump, dual-wall filter and stabilizing baffle ensure the correct release pressure. All this means that with the Granos you can bring that café flavor into your own home. Log onto www.bodumusa.com or call 1-800-23BODUM for more information and purchasing.
