Kávovary

Kávovary are machines designed to brew coffee. They come in a wide variety of types, each offering a different method for extracting flavor from coffee grounds. The most common domestic kávovar is the drip coffee maker, which heats water and drips it over a bed of coffee grounds in a filter. The brewed coffee then collects in a carafe below. Espresso machines are another popular category, utilizing high pressure to force hot water through finely-ground coffee, producing a concentrated shot of espresso. These can range from simple stovetop models to complex automatic machines.

Other types of kávovary include French presses, which steep coffee grounds in hot water and then press a plunger to separate the grounds from the liquid. Percolators heat water and repeatedly cycle it through coffee grounds, which can sometimes lead to over-extraction. Pod or capsule kávovary use pre-portioned servings of coffee, offering convenience and consistency. The choice of kávovar often depends on personal preference for taste, convenience, and the desired brewing method. Regular cleaning and maintenance are crucial for optimal performance and longevity of any kávovar.
