Coffee Preferences Right at your Fingertips
A new digital fingerprint coffee device, for those with precise personal preferences, is set to revolutionise the coffee industry over the next few years.
According to coffee lovers across the globe, the ideal coffee requires a personal touch, with the latest development allowing just this and ensuring consumers’ morning coffee fix is exactly to their desired taste as well as potentially allowing them to achieve coffee shop standards in their own home.
With an unimposing fingerprint reader positioned on top of a coffee machine, personalised coffee settings can be chosen and stored in a user-friendly fashion and translated into liquid format in a quick press of the touchpad.
Following on from news of a mobile phone operated coffee machine concept as well as a device with adjustable pressure, the idea of personalising coffee experiences is garnering increasing attention. With the explosive growth of the smartphone market, the likelihood of personalisation technology allowing communication between a user’s mobile phone and a commercial coffee machine to automatically create a personalised order may well become a reality in UK high streets in the coming years.
Meanwhile in other coffee news, awareness has been raised as to the added commercial as well as new clientele opportunities that pubs can tap into by serving coffee during their quieter times. Whilst the champion of the high-street is the espresso machine, there is also reported to be a growing trend towards the more simply-produced filter variants, produced in filter coffee machines, in some outlets where coffee is not a core competence.
