Coffee
The personal coffee machine
By Mike Hanlon

The inspiration for the aesthetically arresting Aroma Espresso Maker came from the sensual aspects of coffee itself. Coffee is a rich aromatic liquid, with similar qualities to a cologne, hence the design aimed to capture the essence of those qualities by being reminiscent of a cologne bottle and we can vouch that it has achived its goals – the Aroma is one of those objects you see that makes you scream “I want one of those.” Apart from being beautiful and highly desirable, the Aroma Espresso Maker is a personal, compact and portable 60 ml espresso maker designed to be carried for convenient usage anytime. With discretionary time becoming scarce in an increasingly busy world, the Aroma Espresso Maker can easily be carried to work in your bag, and simply plugged in and turned on at your desk. Its transparent casing allows the user to witness coffee being brewed enhancing the sensual experience and to finish it all off, there’s also a cylindrical leather carry bag with a zipper top to protect the coffee machine while traveling.

Nespresso simplifies the coffee equation in style
By Mike Hanlon

We drink a lot of coffee at Gizmag, so when we got the opportunity to sample a machine which was claimed to produce extreme quality coffee which is EXACTLY the same every time, and reduces the time devoted to the ritual of coffee making by several minutes, and eliminates the mess, we jumped at the opportunity. First things first - the name was a significant problem to overcome - Nespresso conjures up pictures of synthetic substances manufactured by unnatural means, of a low-cost substitute for people who don't have any taste and who couldn't tell the difference between good coffee and instant home-brand coffee if it hit them on the head with a hammer.
