Coffee makers

The Viennese were not the first to drink coffee, nor were their coffeehouses ever the only ones. Nevertheless, there is no city in this world that was and still is so closely associated with the word coffeehouse as the Austrian capital. In 2001, Vienna's coffeehouse culture was even designated an Intangible Cultural Heritage by UNESCO. As part of the opening of our first Austrian department store in Vienna, we take a look at the things that make the Viennese coffeehouse a real institution with a recognition effect and a must for every Vienna tourist.

Brewing coffee has become more and more important in recent years - the possibilities to influence the taste to your own taste are hard to beat with hand filters, stick filter pots and their relatives. A little time, knowledge and practice are all you need to brew the perfect coffee.

Most owners of an espresso machine are familiar with this situation: The new machine has been assembled, the operating instructions have been read, and now it's finally time to get started. So you quickly tear open a packet of espresso, put the powder in the portafilter, press it lightly, mount it in the brew group and press the button.
