    Debrew: Part 3D Printer, Part Coffee Maker

    Brewing the perfect cup of coffee is a key part of many people's days -- or at least a key hope, as many times coffee doesn't come out quite perfect. Elias Bakken has created a showpiece that can brew the ideal cup of hand brew dripper coffee every time, and it's based on a delta 3D printer. The Debrew combines Bakken's love of robots and coffee into one sleek device that runs on g-code. Pre-define your coffee profile and the Debrew is up and brewing in no time. In order to save the step of opening up a web interface just to brew some coffee, Bakken used his Manga Screen (currently on Kickstarter) LCD screen to use with the Debrew. While the Debrew probably won't be commercially available, almost every part of it is open source, so it wouldn't be a stretch for someone else to take the project on.

    Seems like a lot of effort just to make coffee. If you watch his kickstarter video for the screen you can see the coffee maker working very briefly. It appears that he is using the delta arms to move the water dispensing in a circular motion. I would think this could be easily replicated without the delta arms, but oh well.
