JAVA IN A JIFFY

These uniquely challenging times have accelerated digitalisation in several industries, including the café scene with the rise of robotic baristas. From Crown Digital (the retail solution provider arm of Crown Coffee) comes Ella X, a fully automated barista that is powered by a patented AI technology programmed to serve over 200 cups of barista-like coffee (with over 100 varieties) with speed, quality and consistency. Ratio Café & Lounge, a popular F&B brand in China which has an outlet in Singapore has tapped into this revolutionary concept too. These robotic baristas can easily customise your coffee or cocktails in the exact ratio you prefer in less than a minute—whether it’s 1.2 shots of espresso in your latte, or precisely one part Campari, one part Vermouth and one part Gin in your Negroni. crowndigital.io, ratio.inc
