Having OCD (obsessive coffee disorder) is a hard enough condition to deal with, but add on always being in a rush; panic tends to follow. To feed your addiction in your busy lifestyle, the “Textspresso” is coming to save the day.

 

In this generation everyone is glued to their phone. Zipwhip in Settle combined the addictions of both texting and coffee to create the "Textspreso." Instead of having to prep your coffee or spend money to have someone make it; you simply just text “coffee” or “latte” and BAM you get coffee when you are back at your office. 

 

The Zipwhip team created this nearly 300 part machine within only 20 days. There are still tweaks that still remain unfinished or unattached.

 

They plan on attaching an edible ink printer. Yup, you read that right. They developed a printer to print your personal information, such as, your phone number, name, and possible even your picture onto the top foam of your coffee. The reasoning of doing that is so you do not take anyone’s coffee besides your own.

    Dark teas, like Earl Grey, has the cheapest caffeine to dollar ratio than any other beverage. People should move in that direction.

     

    How about a text to tea option?

    One more reason for me not to drink coffee.

     

    I know that people like the stuff, but if you look at the cost per gallon, you are talking about some serious money to drink these "specialty" drinks.

     

    Just my opinion.
