Constructional features of Caffettiera

By

After a little introduction in the previous article about Caffettiera, the italian Coffee Pot, one would like to understand its features and the way to use it.

Caffettiera, the most famous and most common Coffee pot available in every Italian home is the best piece of appliance or a gadget made of steel or aluminum that one can have in their home.

It consists of two halves which can be screwed easily with a transition piece in between them and that is all.

It sounds strange but it is a fact that it does not contain anything else. If one carefully observes by taking this caffettiera (a metal gadget with a hybrid look for strangers as it seems something like an hour glass with a handle and a projected mouth like a jug) into their hands, the design and the constructional features of the coffee pot will be much appreciated.

These mere three pieces of metal have all the elements required for making coffee, here coffee refers to strong coffee or caffe normale as called by the Italians. One can not expect to make cappuccino by using caffettiera but as it makes the decoction ready that can be readily added to the hot milk, there will be some varieties that this metal gadget Caffettiera can deliver indirectly, as the coffee decoction is the primary requirement to make Indian coffee or American coffee or whatever coffee it can be, that needs milk.

The top piece of Caffettiera consists of the loose or free lid, only to cover the top cup-shaped half, which contains in its cup a thin hollow tubular projection with two holes at the top. If we observe the bottom of the top cup, we find a sieve or a perforated steel plate with a rubber washer. This acts as one filter.

The bottom piece of Caffettiera consists of a hollow cup only equipped with a safety valve.

The transition piece looks more similar to a funnel but with the conical part almost flat and contains another sieve or perforated plate just above the conical part.

So in total these three pieces or sub assemblies make the Caffettiera, the good looking metal gadget in your kitchen.

An Indian dimension to Spirituality and methods of Self Control

By
This   Indian   (Hindu) dimension of Spirituality is our small effort to make our readers know something about ancient India’s wisdom which was precisely preserved in the form of   Vedas, Epics, Puranas, Upanishads , etc, all of which at more than one occasion have never refrained from the discussion on the   human behavior   and the methods of   Self-control . A little consideration will explain the fact that with the gained material knowledge on any subject, people try to do different things and in the process of doing things people make mistakes and those mistakes teach important lessons to improve our lives if those underlying lessons are understood properly Our experiences both good and bad will give way to critical thinking and the process of critical thinking more often is linked to our intellect and to our minds which in turn connect us with our own true selves to let us understand our true nature and the natural principles of this world. So i...

Parents' Role in Shaping Children's Behaviour.

By
Good behaviour is the outward expression of an inner order — it reflects a person's character, values, and consciousness. It is not just about manners or external politeness; it is the natural fragrance that arises from a well-cultivated mind and a pure heart. At the human level, good behaviour means living with respect for oneself and others, showing kindness, honesty and self-control in all interactions. In short, good behaviour is living in harmony with dharma, with a mind filled with love and a heart tuned to the higher purpose of life.  It is the bridge between human life and divine life.  In the fast-paced life of today, the meaning of good behaviour often gets blurred by ambition, technology, and competition. Children are quick to learn digital skills but slow to learn emotional sensitivity. The old foundation of respect for parents, teachers, and elders is weakening, not because the young are bad, but because guidance through examples has become rare.  Sri Ra...

Anuloma - Viloma Sukha Pranayama (Alternate breathing exercise in comfortable pose)

By
DEFINITION OF PRANAYAMA: Pranayama (Prāṇāyāma) is a combination of two Sanskrit words 'Prana' which means life force, vital energy or breath, and 'Ayama' which means to extend.

PEACEFUL AND HAPPY LIFE.

By
Image
Peace of mind is a mental state of calmness or tranquility, and freedom from worry and anxiety.  The desire of every human being and the goal of every prayer is peace of mind. It is a beautiful gift, which only we can give to ourselves just by expecting nothing from anyone. There is no real wealth in this world than peace of mind.    A happy life is all about the art of balancing our relationship with all the family members,  relatives, and friends. It can only be found if we can free ourselves of all other distractions. For every minute of being angry, we lose the same amount of happiness in our life.  It is the spiritual experience of living every minute with love, kindness, and gratitude. It will never come to those who fail to appreciate what they already have. We won't get real happiness from what we get, but it comes from what we give to others and other living beings.  Feeling some positive emotions every day has a big effect on o...

Why managing and organizing Email is an important issue?

By
Email is an indispensable tool in the modern offices which require their employees to work on computers for many professions. Email is a word that literally means electronic mail and now email has replaced the traditional letters between various organizations, persons and family members. Business do send important letters related to contracts where signatures are involved, but otherwise the trend these days is to stick with email, opt to receive bills online, for saving time, energy and environment. In spite of a tremendous raise of IM (instant messaging) apps because of large number of mobile subscribers, email still has its place on the internet space and it may exist till a new agreed method of credible communication would be invented that could replace email. In the near future it doesn't seem to be possible.
