Coffee is considered as the primal necessity when it comes to the workplace. Some consider it as the source of their motivation, while others see it as a morning ritual. Whatever the case, it's a daily essential that employees cannot go without.
The very idea itself has set forward a Kickstarter campaign to bring the people a shot of espresso while on the go. Seems fitting in today's day and age where everyone is always on the move. There would be no need to stop at the Starbucks line-up at the office espresso machine anymore when this hits market release.
Sippy is designed for everyone who loves coffee, and loves to have it anywhere they go. From Fikra Design, this espresso maker brews a full bodied espresso any time and at any place. It's completely mechanical and it does not have any moving parts. As such, it doesn't require batteries that users would have to charge over and over again.
Sippy is shaped like a thermos and has a pen-like profile, giving it portability while adding an amount of class to its packaging. It's the ideal design for people that are always on the run, yet need their daily dose of caffeine while they're on the road.
To make an espresso using Sippy, all the user needs are simple, easy to reach ingredients - hot water, a CO2 cartridge, and an espresso capsule. It will work well with Nespresso, Hema, and Coffee Duck-compatible pods, which can also be purchased easily from the marketplace.
This process would be more convenient than buying beans and grinding them yourself, although it could be more expensive. However, its easy procedure would make it worthwhile for those frequently working in the field.
The Kickstarter campaign already has 34 backers and a total pledge of £4,189 at the time of writing. It still has 56 days to go to reach its £66,000 goal. Backers who pledge at least £109 can be the very first ones to own a Sippy for themselves.
