What's a filter coffee machine?

The term filter coffee comes from the technique you use when making coffee. You make coffee with a paper or permanent filter. The coffee machine pours hot water over this. The fresh coffee drips from the filter straight into the coffee pot. Filter coffee is aromatic and rich in taste, but it's not for everyone. It tastes less intense than an espresso. This means that there's no crema on the coffee. That's because crema is created with high pressure.
