About this project
The gap between a good latte and a great one usually comes down to silky microfoam — yet home frothers have long fallen short of café quality, and latte-art technique is hard-won. DREO's BaristaMaker set out to fix that: barista-level, marshmallow-soft microfoam at home, no expert skills required.
DREO assembled coffee experts and food scientists to decode foam formation across protein, fat and temperature, inventing the industry-first Barista Combo frothing unit that resists the centrifugal motion of milk flow for finer, silkier foam. Temperature control is anchored to the protein-denaturation window and the SCA's recommended frothing range, while tailored programs cover every milk type — dairy or plant-based — with 30+ foam choices from frothing to stirring.
The campaign raised $651,256 against a $10,000 goal — roughly 65x funded — with 7,096 backers, making it one of Kickstarter's most successful smart frother projects.
Highlights
- ✓Barista Combo unit: an industry-first frothing structure that resists the centrifugal motion of milk flow for finer, silkier latte-art microfoam
- ✓Tailored programs for every milk type — dairy or plant-based — each with its own optimized frothing curve
- ✓Food-science temperature control: milk proteins denature at 50–60°C; BaristaMaker locks the sweet spot aligned with the SCA's 55–65°C guidance
- ✓30+ creative modes: from thick cappuccino foam to hot-chocolate stirring — a café-level drink menu from one device
