CHICAGO, March 17, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Gourmia™, a designer and manufacturer of innovative countertop kitchen appliances, is bringing the sophisticated tastes of specially brewed teas and coffees, previously found only in fine tea houses and coffee shops, into the home.

Gourmia to Show Its Expanding Line of IoT-Enabled Products at 2017 International Home + Housewares Show in booth #L12739, Lakeside Building, March 19 - 21, 2017

Using the latest IoT technology, including Alexa voice commands, the new Gourmia mobile kitchen app directly links each of these products to a single iOS or Android app on the user's smartphone or tablet. Once linked, the user is all set up to sit back and enjoy a perfect cup of his or her favorite tea or coffee.

"Who doesn't enjoy a warm cup of nerve-soothing tea or a jolt of hot, steaming coffee," asked Gourmia founder Heshy Biegeleisen. "Now, Gourmia makes it possible for both tea and coffee aficionados to enjoy their favorite brew right in the comfort of their own home and at far less cost than at a commercial establishment. Our smart tea and coffee makers coupled with our mobile kitchen app make it all possible. Users can even link a Gourmia grinder, milk frother, and espresso or capsule machines together to make an authentic cup of espresso, cappuccino, or latte right in their own home."
