Automatic Drip Coffee Makers
An automatic drip coffee maker (automatic drip coffeemaker) is a coffee brewing device that employs the filter-drip method of coffee brewing.
How An Automatic Drip Coffee Maker Works
Water is placed into the automatic drip machine which then heats the water and drains it onto a bed of roasted, ground coffee.
The water seeps through the coffee grounds, absorbing the coffee’s flavor materials that give coffee its flavors and aromas. The coffee beans then pass through a paper filter into a coffee pot.
