When Money Is Not A Problem

It has been called "majestic, ingenious and sleek." Those are only a few of the words that have said, describing this coffee machine - the Clover, an $11,000 device that brews regular coffee one cup at a time.
The machine works using an extremely fine filter on top of a piston that sinks into the machine. Over time, the piston will rise, creating a vacuum that forces water through the grounds.
Finally, the coffee flows into a single cup.
