If you need a jolt of caffeine grab yourself an espresso on this day. The Espresso Machine was first invented in Italy by Luigi Bezzera in 1901. Luigi’s goal was to decrease the time of his employee’s coffee breaks, and subsequently increase productivity. His espresso machine accomplished this goal, and went beyond, creating a thick, bold, coffee that has become extremely popular.

Did You Know? Espresso is the base ingredient for cappuccino, lattes, and macchiato.

How to Celebrate National Espresso Day

It is very easy and enjoyable and relaxing to participate in National Espresso Day.

• If your Espresso machine is not already sitting on your kitchen counter, drag it out of its basement storage location, dust it off, and make some Espresso.
• If you don’t have an Espresso machine, that’s okay. Walk or drive to your nearest coffee shop or cafe, and order one! 
• Another great way to celebrate this jacked-up day, is to buy an Espresso maker. Then, you can have it at home whenever you want without going out to a coffee shop in inclement November weather.
