Moriondo’s grandfather founded a liquor production company which was then managed by his father. Moriondo also built the popular chocolate company, “Moriondo and Gariglio” with his brother and cousin.
According to Google on its Google Doodle page, once upon a time, in 19th century Italy, coffee was the hottest item around.
Unfortunately, brewing methods required customers to wait over five minutes to get their drink.
Enter Angelo Moriondo, the man who patented the first known espresso machine. Today’s Doodle celebrates his 171st birthday.
Following in his family’s footsteps, Moriondo purchased two establishments: the Grand-Hotel Ligure in the city-center Piazza Carlo Felice and the American Bar in the Galleria Nazionale of Via Roma.
Despite coffee’s popularity in Italy, the time spent waiting for the coffee to brew inconvenienced customers.
Moriondo figured that making multiple cups of coffee at once would allow him to serve more customers at a faster pace, giving him an edge over his competitors.
