In-home coffee machine may give best brew
Print Edition
A German entrepreneur has invented an in-home machine that quickly turns raw beans into a freshly brewed cup of coffee, racking up 5,000 pre-orders as consumers search for the perfect brew and retailers hunt for new ways to tap the coffee market.
Inventor Hans Stier says his Bonaverde machine’s ability to roast beans at the optimum temperature and for just the right amount of time and almost as quickly as filter brewing machines, sets it above the crowd of current coffee makers.
As coffee drinking is associated with sophistication in its mature arabica-focused markets, novelty in preparation has become big business as more cafes boast trained baristas and sales boom in markets such as the US$8 billion single-serve segment, dominated by Nestle’s Nespresso.
“This is the freshest coffee you’ll ever taste,” said Stier, the CEO of Bonaverde, who quit work as a lawyer in 2011 to pursue the project by amassing almost US$2.5 million through crowd-funding sources such as Kickstart, Indiegogo and Seedmatch.
The table-top machine, slightly taller than a regular coffee maker, drew curious gazes while on display last week at Colombia’s Coffee Growers’ Federation congress in Bogota.
