Design Details
- Unique Properties
- This product integrates multiple functions into a portable form, ready to offer premium coffee in diverse scenarios. With a vertically stacked modular design, it accommodates the entire process from grinding to extraction within a compact footprint no larger than an A4 sheet when viewed from the front, saving space while adapting to various coffee solutions. Moreover, it preheats in 3 seconds and brews a single espresso shot in 30 seconds, meeting modern pursuits of both efficiency and quality.
- Inspiration
- This design is born from the modern pursuit of premium coffee that is also convenient to prepare. In the fast paced world, people crave the rich flavor of freshly ground beans but want to avoid cumbersome processes and space constrains. This trend is driving the need for machines that offer professional results and flexible portability, seamlessly fitting into kitchens, offices, and life on the go to unlock the power of a freshly brewed cup to brighten everyday moments.
- Research
- As urban life accelerates and living spaces shrink, traditional all in one coffee machines, with their bulky, complex designs, fail to meet evolving needs. This product addresses this gap with an innovative rotating dual module structure. It combines grinding and brewing functions while offering portability and compact storage. Free from fixed settings, it is ready to offer the authentic espresso experience whether at home for breakfast, during an office break, or on an outdoor adventure.
- Challenge
- The key challenge was to balance ease of use with coffee quality. To this end, the product features a rotating dual module design that ditches the bulk of traditional all in one coffee machines. It preheats in 3s and brews an espresso shot in 30s for greater convenience and efficiency. With professional technologies such as 20 bar high pressure extraction, low pressure preinfusion, and pulse cold brewing, it allows even beginners to easily enjoy consistently rich, exceptional coffee with ease.
- Realization and Technology
- The metal body with smooth curves offers a comfortable grip and a modern look that blends into any home style. Multiple color options are available to suit personal tastes. The coffee machine uses environmentally friendly materials including recycled aluminum, rABS, rPET, and rPP, making it 80 percent recyclable.
- Operation and Interaction
- When not in use, the top module rotates to align with the bottom, saving storage space. Simply rotate the upper module 90 degrees to prepare the machine for brewing. Operation becomes convenient and fun. A top mounted touchscreen offers intuitive control. The stainless steel burr grinder system offers five adjustable grind levels for personalized needs. The integrated weight sensor automatically calculates the dose and matches the ideal grind level, making the machine friendly to beginners.
- Project Duration and Location
- The design and development of the coffee machine stated in 2022. It was introduced to the market in 2023.
