An apparatus for making espresso coffee is described. The apparatus comprises a support frame ( 2 ) upon which an open-topped cylinder ( 3 ) is vertically mounted. A pot containing a quantity of ground coffee may be attached to the base of the cylinder, and the frame ( 2 ) and cylinder ( 3 ) provide sufficient space to insert a cup or cups below the pot. A piston with a piston head ( 22 ) is adapted to fit in the cylinder ( 3 ) and a pair of levers ( 6, 7 ) pivoted to the frame and pivotally linked to the piston enable the piston head to move up and down in the cylinder ( 3 ) by actuation of the levers ( 6, 7 ). In use, hot water is poured into the cylinder ( 3 ) and downward pressure on the levers ( 6, 7 ) expels the hot water under pressure through the ground coffee and the freshly made coffee passes out of an outlet in the base of the pot and into a waiting cup.
