A great espresso starts with a perfect grind. Meraki’s precision-engineered grinder, co-developed with TIMEMORE®, delivers consistent grinds that are essential for unlocking the full potential of your coffee beans.

Traditional 3-in-1 machines compromise on grind quality, which is why we partnered with industry leader, TIMEMORE®. The TIMEMORE® co-engineered grinder features a stepless adjustment, allowing you to precisely dial in your beans, while the conical burr delivers exceptional consistency, ensuring rich, flavorful espresso.

The innovative design separates the grind zone from the extracting and steaming areas, protecting your beans from heat and moisture for the best possible coffee taste.

An included magnetic dosing cup seamlessly attaches to your Meraki, ensuring unwavering stability with a secure hold. It’s built to fit our included 58mm portafilter, so you can grind, dose, and prep your puck with ease.

Meraki prioritizes a clean and efficient coffee experience. Our design utilizes an ion beam and short path spout to minimize retention and clumping, so more coffee goes into your cup.

Extraction is the heart of good espresso. From the powerful rotary pump to precise temperature control, Meraki ensures every shot is rich in flavor and topped with beautiful crema.

Espresso extraction is an art, but achieving professional consistency requires precision and the right tools. Meraki’s commercial-grade rotary pump delivers the consistent 9-bar pressure essential for flavorful espresso extraction, while operating at a remarkably quiet level.

Meraki delivers consistent temperature control with its three-pronged approach: an independent extraction boiler, PID technology, and a dedicated group head heater. The extraction boiler ensures a continuous stream of hot water, eliminating temperature fluctuations that can impact taste. Real-time temperature feedback with PID tech allows you to dial in the perfect extraction temperature, while the dedicated group head heater maintains optimal brewing temperature at the portafilter, guaranteeing consistent, flavorful results every shot.

Effortlessly achieve barista-worthy results, dialed in for your ideal flavor. Tailor your extraction to your exact preferences with the ability to customize both extraction weight and water temperature. This user-friendly control allows you to fine-tune your espresso, whether you’re a seasoned coffee enthusiast or just starting.

Meraki’s drip tray system is designed with both functionality and user convenience in mind. Featuring a dedicated, smaller drip tray that channels wastewater into a larger tray, this thoughtful design prevents messy spray-ups, keeping your workspace clean and dry. Additionally, a float indicator offers a quick and easy way to monitor water levels.

Transform milk into velvety microfoam with an independent steam boiler and a 360° adjustable wand for precise control. The integrated temperature sensor ensures flawless milk texture, while the heat-resistant design guarantees comfort and safety.

Create café-quality latte art at home with Meraki’s independent steam boiler. This user-friendly design eliminates wait times, ensuring a continuous stream of powerful steam for uninterrupted frothing. Achieve the perfect milk texture, from silky microfoam for latte art to airy foam for cappuccinos.

Where standard steam wands limit your mobility, Meraki’s 360° adjustable steam wand allows you to maneuver freely and achieve perfect texturing from any angle.

Meraki simplifies your coffee experience with Auto Mode. Simply select your desired coffee grounds, liquid weight, and milk temperature on the intuitive touchscreen. Then, press start and let Meraki automatically grind, extract, and froth your coffee to perfection.

Unlike most espresso machines that rely on time-based control, Meraki features dual integrated scales that can work with Auto Mode, automatically stopping the grinding and extraction process once the preset coffee grounds and liquid weight are achieved. Combined with our intuitive touchscreen, you have complete control of your coffee at your fingertips.

The 360° adjustable steam wand includes a built-in temperature probe, so you don’t need additional thermometers. This allows you to set your desired milk temperature on the touchscreen. Once activated, the steam wand will automatically stop frothing when the perfect temperature is reached, guaranteeing consistent, silky microfoam.

CoffeeSense™ technology allows you to make exceptional coffee, regardless of your experience level. By collaborating with global roasters and baristas, we’re developing the Meraki coffee library with optimal grinding and extraction parameters to ensure you experience the full potential of every bean.

Each CoffeeSense™ coffee bag includes an NFC chip with precise parameters tailored to that specific bean. Simply scan the chip at the bottom of the bag on your machine to unlock the settings, then use Auto Mode for instant, barista-quality coffee.

CoffeeSense™ accesses ideal grinding and extraction settings from the Meraki coffee library, operating through Auto Mode. Meraki’s commercial-grade components ensure precise parameter delivery. The fusion of advanced technology and artisanal craftsmanship in Meraki guarantees barista-quality coffee at home.

Beyond its core functionalities, Meraki offers a range of thoughtful features designed to adapt to your needs and preferences.

We plan to start shipment in January 2025, ensuring early delivery soon after the crowdfunding launch. We will keep backers  informed about production and shipment updates through Indiegogo, so stay tuned.
