To be clear, there’s a lot more than meets the eye here. The TopBrewer is actually a coffee maker but it has been designed in such a way that only the stainless steel tap is exposed, thus giving off a very simplistic and minimalist feel that seems to be quite the rage these days in home interior design.
How it pairs with the iPhone is through an app that essentially is a menu of sorts and lets you choose what sort of coffee you would like brewed. So if you wanted a latte, you’d select it from the app, place your cup under the tap and wait for the TopBrewer to make one for you. Unfortunately no word on how much or when Scanomat will release the TopBrewer, but this is definitely a gadget we wouldn’t mind having.
