The Design

About Gm11a Kaffemaskin

GM11A er en multikapsel-kaffemaskin som også er kompatibel med malt kaffe. Hovedsakelig beregnet for små kontorer og kjøkken, har den en dobbel tut for kaffe og et damprør for melkeskumming. GM11A har et internasjonalt utseende, men er fortsatt gjenkjennelig italiensk i utførelse og finish. Geometriske og enkle volumer harmonerer med detaljene som avslører en italiensk sjel. Touchgrensesnittet gir en avsluttende følelse av moderne teknologi på et tradisjonelt produkt.
