On August 13, 2024 DREO, the manufacturer of many of my favorite air-moving devices, will move into the kitchen space by moving air into milk and the like to froth it. The official kickstarter date is the 13th of August and for pre-order start the 15th September on dreo.com and some retailers.

Armed with a touch screen, a heating element, and magnetic driven frothing blades the BaristaMaker makes the perfect froth for drink art, and generally adds to any regular coffee to punch it up a notch.

We received the BaristaMaker a few days ago and have incorporated it into our coffee rotation, which is only a few cups thus far so bear in mind this is not a review of how it performs over time.

We’ve thrown 2%, oat, and soy milk at the thing and in each case ended up with a fairly frothy foam. With the oat milk I had already poured it in on the milk frothing impeller and discovered you can hot swap without your fingers touching the oat milk. Magnetic impellers are something new to me and appear to make cleanup a breeze.

I do hope to have more of a review near release date, but I am attempting to not waste milk, oat milk, soy milk, etc. This means with my and my wife’s coffee intake we’re using it about three times a week. We have thus far just progressed into coffee art but nothing to write a blog about yet. I can make a couple of lines and Kim was able to make something resembling a shrub.

While our art skills need upped, I suspect this is entirely on us and not the foam quality produced by the DREO BaristaMaker. I’m enjoying our coffee drinks about 20% more as it stands, the froth combines with Kirkland’s Finest coffee and some simple syrup to produce something I would not have an issue paying for at a coffee shop.

Anyway, hopefully by the time it’s out I’ll have more of a review. Problem with not drinking huge amounts of coffee after my surgery and not wanting to waste milk have slowed said review down.

Below is the press release, and feel free to ask me any questions while I continue to use the BaristaMaker

DREO Unveils BaristaMaker: The Ultimate Smart Milk Frother for Perfect Latte Art 

Clifton, NJ – July 25, 2024 DREO, a leader in smart home innovation, proudly announces the launch of the DREO BaristaMaker, the most professional smart milk frother capable of creating latte art with all types of milk. This revolutionary device is set to take home coffee making to the next level, delivering barista-quality microfoam at the touch of a button.

With a unique blend of food science and barista mastery, DREO’s new milk frother allows coffee lovers to achieve the most exquisite frothy milk at home effortlessly. This new milk frother is the culmination of extensive research and a patented propeller technology meticulously designed to replicate the technique of professional baristas. After thousands of simulations mimicking the frothing process of expert baristas in their R&D kitchen, DREO has developed a milk frother capable of emulating the froth quality found in commercial coffee shops, surpassing the capabilities of most traditional, off-the-shelf home frothers with unmatched froth quality and texture.

DREO BaristaMaker Milk Frother will be available on Kickstarter from 13th August and for pre-order from 15th September on dreo.com and trusted retailers including Amazon and select authorized partners.

Stunning Microfoam for Latte Art

DREO BaristaMaker Milk Frother creates 0.5mm micro-bubbles, producing silky, shiny, dense microfoam similar to that found in coffeehouses. DREO has developed a patented impeller tip that precisely controls the direction of flow. Traditional disc tips may not always move the milk in the right direction, but BaristaMaker’s impeller blade ensures that the milk is consistently directed to the center for continuous mixing. As the milk is drawn to the center, DREO’s specially designed micro-level screen transforms normal-sized bubbles into rich, dense microfoam during the multi-stage frothing process.

DREO has also created a multi-stage milk frothing program that replicates each frothing step used by an expert barista with a high-pressure frothing wand. It starts by quickly heating the milk to the perfect temperature, creating the right balance of texture and flavor. Next, it mixes air into the milk to create larger bubbles by increasing the speed of rotation. Once enough foam has formed, it slows down the speed, directs the milk to the center using the impeller, and meticulously transforms these larger bubbles into dense, silky microfoam.

Compatibility with Plant-Based Milks

The popularity of plant-based milks has grown significantly in recent years due to dietary preferences, lactose intolerance, and environmental concerns. Recognizing this shift, DREO developed BaristaMaker to ensure it could produce perfect microfoam with both dairy and plant-based milks, bringing versatility and superior performance to a wide range of users. DREO’s food scientists carried out in-depth analysis of the protein and fat content of these milks from a range of different brands and developed a special algorithm that adapts to these different types of milk and delivers consistently high-quality frothing performance. Whether you’re a fan of almond milk, oat milk, soy milk, or coconut milk, this amazing machine can froth it all to perfection.

Versatile from Frothing to Stirring

BaristaMaker offers multiple frothing settings, allowing you to choose from microfoam, thick foam, and cold foam, depending on your preference and the type of beverage you are making. This versatility ensures that you can enjoy a wide variety of coffee styles at home. In addition to coffee, BaristaMaker is an excellent companion for powdered beverages such as matcha, hot chocolate, and other specialty drinks. Its frothing capabilities enhance the texture and flavor of these beverages, creating a rich and satisfying experience every time.

Designed with the User in Mind

BaristaMaker includes a professional stainless steel pitcher and is dishwasher safe. Its user-friendly features ensure that you can concentrate on enjoying your coffee without complicated settings or difficult cleaning procedures.

Endorsed by Media Enthusiasts and Barista World Champions

On the 16th of July, DREO hosted an exclusive media event in New York City, where media partners from top-tier media outlets got a hands-on experience with BaristaMaker. The media partners were impressed by its innovative features and intuitive design, as well as its ability to create micro-foam for latte art. And they’re looking forward to publishing dedicated reviews of this impressive machine!

DREO is proud to announce partnerships with three distinguished baristas: Anthony Douglas, the 2022 World Barista Champion; Dale Harris, the 2017 World Barista Champion; and Mikael Jasin, the 2024 World Barista Champion. These renowned experts will serve as ambassadors for BaristaMaker and the DREO brand, showcasing the technology and exceptional results of this groundbreaking product.

Anthony Douglas commented, “If I’m focusing purely on the quality that I get from the BaristaMaker it would have to be a 10 out of 10. It’s the best milk I’ve experienced and it’d be pretty hard to top.”

Availability and Exclusive Kickstarter Offer

“It is an invitation to elevate your coffee making experience and bring the art of perfectly frothed milk to the consumer. We believe that great frothed milk should be accessible to everyone and BaristaMaker is our way of making that possible. Going forward, DREO will continue to invest in and develop new technology within the coffee category and revolutionise the home beverage experience,” said Joshua Gunn, VP of Sales at DREO.

DREO BaristaMaker Milk Frother will be available on Kickstarter starting August 13th, with a Super Early Bird offer of up to 30% off the suggested retail price of $99. Don’t miss out—pre-orders will open to the wider public on September 15th. Plus, by joining the DREO community, you could win a grand prize valued at up to $3,200! Be part of the coffee revolution. Support us on Kickstarter and be among the first to experience the future of frothed milk!
