Still, Italians must have their coffee. They consume 20 million cups a day, even though they now have to gulp it on the run. The man who has done the most to exploit this yearning is Carlo Ernesto Valente, 54, whose Faema espresso-coffee machines can spill out a fresh cup of potent brew in as little as ten seconds...
