The Design Brief was concluded based on research done with users of ages 18 to 55. The circular water flow was designed after experimenting with 3d printed prototypes with different angles and sizes to achieve the angular water flow. The Size of filter cone, coffee mug and capacity of the water reservoir are done with international standards. The tearable coffee cones material (unbleached paper) and packaging were researched and designed.
Challenge
Our challenge is to design a compact desktop coffee maker. Our primary target users are freelancers / work from home people , to prepare a quality cup of coffee on their desk with less brewing process involved. Pour over coffee has been embraced for the best quality of coffee because of its special techniques used in extracting the richest flavours from the coffee grounds. What sets pour over apart is that it is made by hand-pouring the water over the coffee in a circular motion and the amount of water and interval given for the extraction of coffee depending on the the type of coffee grounds used, unlike drip coffee method.
Realization and Technology
Main body is made up of polypropylene to withstanding the heat better. The main components are injection molded and assembled. The water flow is done through vibratory pump of 4 bar pressure and circular heating tube is used for boiling the water, Capacitive touch switch is used for interface and tank seal with flow piston is used for flowing the water from the reservoir to the pump.
Operation and Interaction
Led touch buttons allows the user to select options for cup selection and the strength of coffee. Single selection of the main button will power on the machine and for confirming the selected function. Holding it for five long seconds will start the keep warm function. The default white led will change colour depending on the selected function. Interface details are properly illustrated and defined in the user manual.
