ultimate coffee machine

the clover coffee single cup coffee maker has to be the ultimate coffee maker, especially at over $8000!!!

it's an interesting but simple setup... basically you add coffee grounds, it feeds hot water into a tank with the grounds for the coffee to steep. then extracts the coffee once brewed filtering out sediment/etc. they call it a "vacuum press", which I assume because it you brew the coffee like a french press but the coffee is extracted similar to a vacuum pot maker.

the great thing is you can control the water tempature, water/coffee ratio, brew time, etc.

here is the FAQ: clover FAQ

it's intended to allow cafes to serve fresh drip coffee, but if I were rich...
