Operating much like a thermostat in a home, a PID controller is a component of some espresso machines that enables users to regulate temperatures in their coffee brewing, the new report explains. Although PID controllers have been used in commercial coffee brewing settings for years, they have only recently been introduced to at-home espresso machines.
This algorithm-based technology ensures the machine's boiler is at the correct temperature for optimal flavor extraction. The name PID (Proportional, Integral, Derivative) describes the three ways in which the system intuitively self-corrects, preventing temperatures from dropping too low or peaking too high.
"A few degrees too hot, and you'll burn those precious grounds", the report says. "Too cool, and you'll under-extract, leading to a sour, weak espresso."
By maintaining consistent temperatures and in turn, consistent coffee tastes, cafes and restaurants can ensure each espresso they serve is up to their standards and that customers receive the same flavor cup every time. This also applies to coffee drinkers brewing coffee at home who want to brew espressos that perfectly suit their palate.
Moreover, the report continues, the PID technology allows users to adjust water temperatures depending on which roast or varietal of beans they are using, bringing out the best flavor profiles in each.
"Lighter roasts may benefit from a slightly higher temperature, while darker roasts might shine at a lower one", EpicPresso says, suggesting first-time PID machine users experiment with temperatures to find their favorite way to brew their beans. As such, when made with PID controller-equipped machines, at-home brews can rival the taste and quality of artisanal coffee shops and cafes.
