The food industry has received another robot for "armament", this time a robot barista, which is able to make one hundred cups of coffee in just an hour of work. And this is not surprising, because, for example, in Boston, robots completely replace professional chefs when cooking various dishes, even the most complex ones. And in Prague there are robots that can take orders through special applications. In Denver, robotic assistants have left bartenders and waitresses with their noses, offering customers fast food.
The coffee business was also not left without attention from robots, and they moved actively into this industry. Briggo has invented robots capable of making coffee and replacing, many, many, three or four good live baristas.
The robot was given the name "Coffee haus" ("Coffee house"). He makes great coffee that customers can order themselves through the app. Moreover, customers can "ask" the robot to make coffee at the desired temperature. This latest development is unique and has no analogues in the whole world, as the company representatives say.
That said, Oliver Gabe, a 24-year-old barista at Ceremony Coffee Roasters in Annapolis, remains a skeptic. The ability to subtly measure the water-to-grind ratio as aroma develops through sophisticated taste tests is an important part of the process, he said.
“All the numbers and data in the world can't tell you exactly how coffee tastes,” Gabe said. “Most of what a person brings is the opportunity to taste coffee while getting a taste.”
