Our Story:

La Fenice® is the world's first coffee machine to adopt the electromagnetic induction technology. Improving energy efficiency and increasing performance is our main mission.

Design and Materials:

Since we started working in the coffee business we have looked with admiration at the 900’s Italian coffee maker, and have taken inspiration from that style of coffee machine. “La Fenice” is a tribute to the past with a futuristic viewpoint, dressed in a new outfit of aluminium, glass and wood.

In 2013, Roy Grinfeld joined our team and we began designing “La Fenice” after much study of the old coffee makers available in the Italian local market.

The electromagnetic induction Heater:

PCB, Pressure, flow rate and temperature control for a PERFECT COFFEE:

We have engineered one of the most advanced PCB ever seen in a coffee machine. Our PCB perfectly controls the power of our electromagnetic induction heater but also controls temperature, pressure and flow rate. Unlike most other coffee makers measuring temperature at the surface of the boiler, “La Fenice” directly measures the temperature of the water itself thanks to an advanced NTC, resulting in higher precision. Perfectly controlling temperature, pressure and flow rate, La Fenice can automatically set all the parameters for a perfect espresso or a perfect American filter coffee.

An open-source coffee Machine:

La Fenice is superflexible, thanks to its full range of filters it can prepare espresso and American filter coffee with your favourite ground coffee but also with the most common capsules on the market (*K-Cup® and Espresso Fap). Whatever your favourite coffee is, “La Fenice” is the right coffee machine for you!

Electromagnetism and Limestone:

Modern studies found out that electromagnetism prevent limestone incrustation and this is why a new generation of electromagnetic water softener recently appeared on the market. We did some experiments on our coffee machine and it really seems to be limestone resistant. In order to prove it, we are going to send one of our prototype to one of the most famous Italian universities.
