# Musical Espresso Makers The Aspresso Machine Allows You to Listen to Jazz By Robyn Currie | Published 2010-06-10 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aspresso-machine References: [yankodesign](http://www.yankodesign.com/2010/06/10/android-based-coffee-brewery/) & [metatrendmedia](http://metatrendmedia.com/) The Aspresso machine by In-oh Yoo & Bong-yup Song for Metatrend Institute is pretty much the greatest espresso innovation. Not because anything new is happening to the espresso, but rather, it is the addition of music that revolutionizes the system. Using Android technology to tell about the intricacies of the coffee about to be enjoyed, the Aspresso machine can also read the QR codes on top of the coffee pods. Each pod comes with its own song encoded in the QR code and differs depending on variety. I'll take a latte and a little N.W.A., please. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.5/10 - Popularity: 11% | Activity: 26% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Musical Coffee Makers:** Incorporating music into coffee makers opens the door for cross-industry innovation opportunities. - **QR Code Audio Integration:** Combining QR codes with audio files creates potential for more engaging and interactive experiences in various industries. - **Smart Home Appliances:** Incorporation of technology in household appliances like coffee makers creates possibilities for more sophisticated and interconnected smart homes. ### Who This Affects Most - **Home Appliances:** Incorporating technology and multimedia capabilities in household appliances like coffee makers presents opportunities for innovation in the home appliance industry. - **Music:** Using QR codes to distribute music and integrating audio into everyday objects like coffee makers has the potential to impact the music industry in new ways. - **Marketing:** QR code audio integration could potentially revolutionize the way companies market and advertise products by providing more engaging and immersive experiences to consumers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Open-Concept Espresso Makers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gaggiuino-espresso-machine.md) - [Simplistic Interface Espresso Makers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/javapresso-espresso-machine.md) - [Instrument-Resembling Coffee Machines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/trumpet-coffee.md) - [Smart Espresso Machines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/delonghi-primadonna-aromatic.md) - [Old-Fashioned Espresso Machines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/retro-modern-espresso-machine.md) - [Luxe Low-Power Espresso Makers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/automatic-espresso-machine-and-frother.md) - [Automated Espresso Machines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/boschs-new-line.md) - [Harmonious Furniture-Inspired Espresso Machines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/origin-espresso-machine.md) - [Mini Espresso Machines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cyetus-mini-espresso.md)
