Article: 7 min

Researchers have developed a room-temperature ultrasonic espresso brewing process that uses high-frequency sound waves instead of hot water, potentially reducing energy use by up to 75%. This method can be used for home users or small coffee shops and is particularly significant for industrial-scale companies producing ready-to-drink coffee products. The study suggests that espresso does not necessarily require hot water.

The ultrasonic espresso brewing process could lead to significant energy savings, particularly for industrial coffee production, and potentially reduce the carbon footprint of coffee manufacturing.

Reduces energy use by up to 75% compared to traditional methods.
Suitable for home users, small coffee shops, and industrial-scale companies.
