The Jet Engine Espresso Machine
This is the espresso machine built into a one-quarter scale recreation of an authentic turbofan jet engine. Handcrafted from aviation-grade 6061 aluminum alloy, 316 stainless steel, and 7075 aluminum-bronze alloy, the jet’s cowling slides back to reveal an espresso machine. Its internal apparatus of water reservoir, twin filters, valves, and hoses suggest the inner-workings of a jet engine, replacing high-velocity compressed air for propulsion with high-pressure brewing of coffee or tea. The middle reservoir accepts water while its two removable filters accept either your preferred ground beans or tea leaves. Two buttons on the base allow serving size selection, which dutifully fills your preferred mug or cup.
