Smart Coffee Makers

The OXO On Coffee Brew System Uses Alarm Clock Tech for Added Precision

— June 16, 2016 — Art & Design
Bringing the realm of technology to kitchen appliances is the OXO On coffee brew system that utilizes smart mechanics to offer precision filtration. This is thanks to the addition of a smart timer that is able to expertly brew each cup to its most ideal drinking specifications so that every sip tastes just right.

The On Coffee Brewing System is a hybrid design that focuses on both traditional and modern coffee maker methods. The maker is run digitally with features such as the 'Barista Brain' that sets the maker to brew coffee as if a barista was making it at a local cafe. The feature monitors temperature sensors, water drip time and how much coffee is dispensed into each cup with added precision to ensure each beverage is properly made.
