How Do Espresso Machines Work?

Making coffee using an espresso machine.

Before we dig into why the Zulay Magia is a must-have, it’s helpful to understand how espresso machines work. An espresso machine functions with a water supply and ground coffee beans and employs a portafilter to hold the coffee grounds securely. The coffee grounds are compacted through tamping, and the machine heats water to around 195-205°F (90-96°C). The water is then forced through the tightly packed grounds using high pressure, resulting in the extraction of soluble compounds, oils, and flavors, producing a concentrated liquid known as espresso. 

The espresso collects in a cup placed beneath the portafilter, and if desired, the machine may also have a steam wand for steaming and frothing milk to create drinks like cappuccinos or lattes. 

In simple terms, an espresso machine forces hot water through finely ground coffee under pressure. This process extracts all the rich oils, flavors, and aromas, creating that bold, concentrated shot of espresso we know and love!

What Are the Different Types of Espresso Machines?

When shopping for an espresso machine, you’ll come across a few different types, each offering varying levels of control and convenience.

  • Manual Espresso Machines

These machines, like the Zulay Magia Manual Espresso Machine, are perfect for purists who want total control over every aspect of the brewing process. You’ll need to manually grind, tamp, and control the water flow. It’s a hands-on approach, but it’s incredibly satisfying if you’re into the art of espresso making.
  • Semi-Automatic Espresso Machines

      2. Put the lid back on the chute and close the Coffee Bean Hopper lid.

    Zulay Says: Do not put more than one scoop (1/8 cup) per brewing cycle. Improper use could damage the machine.

    3. Press the ‘beans’ icon on the top right of the Main Coffee Menu screen. This will now display a spoon to signify that you have switched to the coffee powder instead of beans. Select the drink you want to make.

    Zulay Says: In this coffee grounds mode, you may only select single-cup drink options, which will use all the grounds in the chute for a single serving of your preference.

    What is the machine's water reservoir capacity?

    The Zulay Magia is equipped with a generous water reservoir, with a capacity of 1.8 liters / 0.5 gallons, sufficient for multiple espresso shots before requiring a refill.

    Can I make iced coffee or cold beverages with the Zulay Magia?

    With the Zulay Magia, preparing cold coffee or iced lattes is a breeze. Start by lowering the heating temperature of your espresso or coffee to your preferred level. Since heat is necessary for optimal extraction, just pour the coffee over a glass of ice or chilled milk, and you're all set! Enjoy your refreshingly cold beverages.

    Why is my Espresso not scalding hot?

    Your Magia Espresso machine is designed to brew coffee at an average temp of 200°F, which is ideal for extracting maximum aroma and flavor without a bitter taste or burning. You may, of course, increase the extraction temperature if you wish. Still, the default machine setting allows the ideal brewing and drinking temperature to enjoy a delightful coffee experience without worrying about bitterness or burns!

    Why are my lattes or cappuccinos cooler than my espressos?

    Your Magia's Milk System is designed to Heat, Froth, and Pour milk at the ideal drinking temperature to avoid scalding. It froths milk at an average temp of 140 °F to create the optimum milk-foam texture and taste. Due to the cooler milk temperature, most milk-based coffee drinks are poured a little cooler than espresso.

    How can I keep my drinks hot?

    To keep your drinks hot and enjoyable, store your cups on the warming plate on top of the Magia so they are warm when your drink is poured. You can also customize the temperature through the Coffee Customization Icon. Alternatively, if you are not drinking immediately, we recommend using insulated cups to prevent rapid cooling.

    How do I descale the Zulay Magia?

    Depending on the hardness of the water you are using, you may need to describe the Brew Group or the entire system occasionally. Press the three bars on the top left corner of the Main Coffee Menu screen. Then select the Descale Brewer or Descale Entire System and follow the prompts on the screen. 

    Use the descaling tablets provided with your purchase, or alternatively, add a cup of vinegar to the water tank. It is recommended that a cup be placed under the dispenser to collect water during the descaling process. You must emptythe cup or the Drip Tray more than once during the cycle to prevent water from overflowing.
