Espresso (Italian for "extremely quick") is a short coffee prepared in bars and cafeterias. It is prepared using espresso machines in which steam crosses by pressure the coffee, the result being much stronger than the 'long' coffee (like the one prepared the american way).
It has spread through the world by the Mediterranean, especially Italian, cuisine and bars.
The espresso machines can be either bar-like, electrical or non electrical, simple ones that work with the gas or electrical cooker. The latter is mostly available in the Moka type, which is used to prepare, mainly at home, caffé and not espresso.
