About Crema Joy

Petr Hess studied chemical engineering and loves exploring how substances act on the human body. Coffee is his favorite of them: he reads the studies on caffeine, enzymes and digestion, compares the spec sheets of machines and grinders, and brews more coffee than is strictly reasonable, so you can choose well and enjoy every cup.

Crema Joy exists for one simple reason: a great cup of coffee makes a morning better, and buying the wrong machine is an expensive way to find out what you need. We compare published specifications, manuals and long-term owner reports, and we read the research on coffee and health so you do not have to.

We publish in six languages because coffee is different in every country. A German kitchen wants a bean-to-cup machine, an Italian kitchen a moka pot and a Brazilian kitchen a cafezinho. Our guides respect that.

Our promise

• We never accept payment for a recommendation.
• We say clearly when we have not used a product ourselves and base a pick on specs and documented owner experience.
• Health claims link to the original studies.
• We update guides when models, prices or evidence change.
