Inside The Espresso Machines Behind Arizona's Best Coffee

Great coffee does not happen by accident. Behind every memorable cappuccino or perfectly balanced cortado is a machine that delivers precision under pressure. Over the past several years, I have been documenting the espresso machines used by coffee shops across Arizona. Each one tells a story about the shop’s philosophy and commitment to quality.

This ongoing project highlights the exact machines used by real coffee shops featured in this guide. You can explore photos and cool facts behind each machine. This fun read offers a rare look at the equipment responsible for the drinks that define Arizona’s specialty coffee scene.

When I am in a new neighborhood, your website is the first thing I check. I like knowing ahead of time if a shop actually has pour over or single origin offerings. It has helped me find places I never would have discovered otherwise.
