Berlin/Konstanz, September 4, 2025 – At IFA Berlin (Palais, Booth 111), Next Level Coffee presents nunc., a world premiere: the first portafilter machine with a built-in barista and patented hopper-switch system. Thanks to cutting-edge CoffeeTech, artificial intelligence, and an elegant, compact design, nunc. brings professional portafilter quality to everyone – magically easy.
With nunc., a new era of coffee preparation begins: the espresso machine automatically recognizes each bean and adjusts all brewing parameters on its own.

“We bring the magic of your favorite café into your home – enjoyment and hospitality in every cup,” says Dominik Maier, co-founder of nunc.
CoffeeTech with AI – The Technology Behind the Magic
At the heart of nunc. lies the interplay of precise mechanics, smart sensors, and artificial intelligence:

- Instant On: Ready to use in seconds, energy-efficient, and always available.
- Magic Brew & Magic Milk: AI-powered algorithms control grind, pressure, extraction, and milk froth for consistent perfection.

With every espresso, nunc. learns: continuous data analysis refines brewing parameters and optimizes extraction – leading to a future where any bean can be brewed to perfection after just one test shot. The result is the world’s first espresso system with an AI-backed success guarantee.
