Ah, that's very helpful context, thank you! Makes me significantly more excited about this
It sounds like a good step, but I'm sad it seems to only specify "AI-Powered". We've had effective methods of bulk facial recognition for years without "AI". Not AS effective, maybe, but definitely effective enough. Also, I didn't see in the linked article - did they define "AI" well? I guess I feel like it would be easy to bypass that definition.
> NextLevel Pulsar Brewer Coming Soon! When we released the NextLevel LVL-10 brewer, we were happy with the results and enjoyed how easy it was to yield delicious, even and high extractions. At NextLevel we strive to constantly improve, so we brought on coffee-obsessed astrophysicist Jonathan Gagné to the team to help develop our new brewer, the Pulsar. > Jonathan suggested adding a variable flow-rate valve as well as several other small modifications to the LVL-10, and we’re thrilled with the results! The valve allows the option of a long “steeped” bloom for more efficient prewetting of the coffee grounds. The valve and the “no bypass” brewer design provide an unlimited number of possible combinations of immersion and percolation. You imagination is the only limitation.
It sounds super promising to me, I like the idea of controlled flow zero bypass - sounds like it could do a bunch of different types of brewing possibly
What about Hames Joffman though https://youtu.be/zUdr3QYxzC0
