ROYAL VIENNA COFFEE MAKER Description
Related Auctions
The same coffee siphon featured in the hit movie "The Bucket List", our Royal Vienna coffee makers are a reproduction of ones used by the monarchy of nineteenth-century Vienna.
Boiling water is pumped by a steam build-up through the siphon pipe. By the time the water reaches the grounds in the carafe, it has cooled a few degrees. This results in coffee and water meeting at the perfect temperature to extract the oils and flavors, but not so hot that it imparts a "scorched" taste. The grounds are kept in the carafe by a cloth filter on the end of the siphon pipe. There are no paper filters to absorb the aromatic oils that give different coffees their unique taste.
The coffee from a siphon have great purity of flavor and aroma and no bitterness added by the brewing process. Made of surgical grade stainless steel with a gold PVD coating, it never tarnishes and can withstand temperatures up to 500 degrees Celsius.
