In 1895, the invention of the espresso machine revolutionized the coffee experience, leading to the development of the Italian espresso culture that we know today.

In 1884, Angelo Moriondo patented the first espresso machine in Turin, and subsequent refinements by Luigi Bezzera in the early 1900s revolutionized the coffee experience, leading to the development of the Italian espresso culture that we know today.

Suggested change

In 1884, Angelo Moriondo patented the first espresso machine in Turin, and subsequent refinements by Luigi Bezzera in the early 1900s revolutionized the coffee experience, leading to the development of the Italian espresso culture that we know today.

Why this is better

The article states the espresso machine was unverified in 1895, but the first patented espresso machine was Angelo Moriondo's, patented on June 30, 1884 in Turin (Patent no. 33/256). 1895 is not a recognized milestone in espresso machine history.
