Brand. Design. Technology.
Stainless steel and the art of engineering.
Behind VADUZZO are two partnering mechanical engineers from the Allgaeu, combining more than 40 years of experience in mechanical engineering, automotive and supplier industries. Accordingly, the maker was developed: intensive design, prototyping and testing instead of compromises. More than 40 prototypes, pressure and heat tests and meanwhile over 4,000 cappuccinos (brewed and enjoyed) later, we've created a clear vision of the final concept.
VADUZZO is a high-quality stainless steel product: robust, durable and made for the kitchen, the backpack, camping and the boat alike. Unlike aluminium, stainless steel adds no taste of its own to coffee or milk and needs nothing but clear water for cleaning. Coffee and milk only ever touch stainless steel and food-safe plastic
Minimalist. Pure. Compact.
In around 500 hours of concept work, every component was optimised and realised in the simplest possible way. VADUZZO stands for purist industrial design. In short: form follows function. Nothing is too much, everything has a function.
Technology
One maker, two steps.
Coffee by the moka principle
As it heats up, steam pressure of about 3 bar builds in the lower chamber. Hot water is pushed through the ground coffee and the riser tube into the upper chamber of the maker (percolation). The finished coffee collects in the upper chamber.
The innovation: integrated steam nozzle
Once the coffee is ready and poured into the cups, the VADUZZO maker goes back on the heat. Steam flows through the integrated steam nozzle into the milk and froths it into creamy, barista-quality milk foam.
For almost any heat source
The VADUZZO maker is non-electric. Gas, induction, electric hob or camping stove: VADUZZO turns your favourite spot into your personal cappuccino moment. Tested with whole, UHT and raw milk as well as oat, soy and almond drinks.
Design protected. Patent pending. Tested by professionals.
The VADUZZO design is protected and the technology is patent pending. Two trained baristas and coffee sommeliers have tested VADUZZO and are convinced.
Safety first
Like a moka pot, the VADUZZO™ cappuccino maker is heated on gas, induction or an electric hob. During use, the stainless steel parts and any escaping liquid or steam become very hot.
Risk of burns!
During and immediately after use, touch the VADUZZO™ cappuccino maker only by its black plastic parts. Keep the maker out of reach of children while in use and while it cools down, and never leave it unattended on the heat source.
UNDER PRESSURE!
While operating on a heat source in addition to the heat the VADUZZO™ Coffee Maker is under pressure of about 3 bar.
Let the VADUZZO™ cappuccino maker cool down completely before opening and disassembling it!
Like a classic moka pot, it is cleaned with water.

Cool downCaution: After frothing milk, the maker is under approx. 3 bar of pressure!
Let the maker cool down completely in the air or with water.
Unscrewing is only possible once the pressure has been fully released!
