Why did people invent the electric coffee maker?

Before the invention of the electric coffee maker, people had to brew coffee manually using a variety of methods such as the drip method, the percolator method, or the French press method. These methods were all time-consuming and required a lot of effort, such as grinding the coffee beans, heating the water, and waiting for the coffee to brew.

The electric coffee maker, invented in the early 20th century, automated the coffee-brewing process. It combined all the necessary steps into a single appliance, eliminating the need for manual labor and significantly reducing the time required to brew a cup of coffee.
