IB Joystick
At Iberital we advocate for…
Reimagining how baristas interact with their coffee machines.
“IB Joystick is like interacting with a friend,” chief designer Andreu Carulla explains, “you don't do it by pushing buttons, but by patting them on the back.”
How do we achieve it?
The most natural way is always the most intuitive one to interact with any device. That's why we have created a simple joystick system –which has been granted Utility Model protection– that allows the manual control of the coffee brewing process, turning it into a completely new experience – much more affective, gestural and intuitive.
Also, the group-head reads the type of portafilter that is being used (1 or 2-way), to select the proper dose
