Why are people switching to espresso?
Many people are complaining about not seeing Black Coffee anywhere anymore. The question that pops into most minds is why are people switching to espresso, especially if it means losing such a great talent and personality.
One reason is that many people have become sick and tired of coffee, so now that a good espresso is available, it is simply easier to switch. Another reason, which may not be very popular, is that coffee is a classic example of a no-risk reward, as it is very easy to drink, and very difficult to stop. Finally, coffee simply tastes better in an espresso machine and, most importantly, espresso machines have good publicity, which Black Coffee did not.
Coffee may be no more interesting for some people, but espresso is definitely new.

A barista, a local blogger and YouTuber @exploremexico: Juan Carlos Jaen Molina, expressed his take on this topic.

What is the future of black coffee?
Black coffee is slowly disappearing, as people are making the switch from its original form to the more trendy, coffee-based beverages.
A new survey conducted by the BBC found that more than 50% of British people surveyed reported swapping black coffee for hot beverages such as espressos and cappuccinos.
The survey of 7,500 people revealed the average Brit now drinks almost a coffee a day, with cappuccinos and espressos still the two most popular types of hot drink.
The BBC reported that a £100 million worth of black coffee has been consumed every year in the UK over the past decade, equating to half a million cans of coffee.
