Coffee computer - an innovative solution for coffee lovers and gamers
Norwegian enthusiasts from the Nerdforge team have created a desktop computer with an integrated apparatus for roasting, grinding beans and preparing fresh coffee.
Coffee Maker PC
Original functionality
The Nerdforge YouTube channel presents a fully functional desktop PC equipped with a coffee machine, coffee grinder and roasting unit. Thanks to this development, the user can enjoy freshly brewed coffee with milk without leaving the table. The device will quickly fry, sweep the grains and prepare a flavorful drink.
Project work
Channel creators Martina and Hansi are known for their non-standard and complex projects in the field of handicrafts. For example, Martina made her own prosthetic little finger. The team worked most of April to create the coffee shop computer. In addition to mechanisms for roasting, grinding and preparing coffee, the authors of the project lined the Corsair 1000D body with wood panels.
Design and components
The entire structure is made around the coffee system, and the computer components and visual design remained in the background. To avoid universal, in the opinion of the developers, low-quality solutions, the finished coffee grinder and coffee maker were disassembled and connected to Arduino for control and synchronization. The system contains sensors that guarantee the presence of a cup in the device while pouring coffee. The PC is based on an Intel i7-14700K processor and an NVIDIA RTX 4070 Ti video card, which allows you to comfortably play on it.
Feedback and Concerns
Some commenters noted potential shortcomings with this build due to the combination of food and computer components. There is a risk of increased humidity and heat inside the enclosure. However, an effective PC air cooling system solves this problem. Concerns have also been raised about dust accumulation in the computer. However, Martina has committed to using the device daily to make coffee and to publish a review of its use in the future. A team of enthusiasts will be sharing daily use of the device and any changes that need to be made on Instagram.

Wow, this is something incredible! 🤯 Combining a computer and a coffee maker is just a brilliant idea. I would love to purchase such a gadget! 💻☕️
SofiaBerlin
But it seems to me that this is an unnecessary luxury. Why complicate the already difficult process of making coffee? 🤔 I prefer traditional methods.
AlexParis
I agree, SofiaBerlin, this seems like overkill. But at the same time, one cannot deny the creativity of the creators! I wouldn’t refuse such a computer either, if only for the sake of experimentation. 😄
JuanMadrid
Yes, this is really something! 🤯 Although, I admit, I would be wary of keeping hot drinks and food products near the computer. How not to spoil the equipment!
GrzegorzWarszawa
But I think that the creators thought through all the nuances and provided a reliable cooling system. 🆒 In any case, this is a great example of creative thinking and a bold approach!
OldGrouchLviv
What stupidity! 🙄 Why do we need all these unnecessary features? Just buy a regular coffee maker and a computer and don't bother with these pointless trends. In my time everything was much simpler and more reasonable.
AnnaKiev
I think this is an incredibly cool idea! 🤩 Imagine how convenient it is to play your favorite game and at the same time enjoy freshly brewed coffee. Every gamer's dream!
MarioRoma
I completely agree with AnnaKiev! 👍 In addition, such a computer can be an excellent solution for offices and coworking spaces. Fresh coffee is always at hand - what could be better?
