Seeing how ritualized coffee time has become with guests and even without, there should be more to the process than simply brewing the coffee traditionally; the Guillaume Garcia Nespresso is a right step in that direction.
Designed to be on par with one’s home decor, the Guillaume Garcia Nespresso machine was inspired by the tulip (although I think it resembles a modern hookah). Water is poured into the ‘tulip,’ which then drains down to the body. At the push of a button, coffee is made in a matter of second.
