Laser Etched Latte Art
A few weeks ago we added the ability to customize your Decent when you order it.
One of the options is to have your cover laser etched with one of two patterns we've developed. The first order for this came in today, for a DE1XL going to a Golf Resort in Malaysia https://www.tropicanagolf.com/
The design features a two-high array of common latte art patterns.
We've never actually made a full machine like this before (just a DE1PRO prototype, with different patterns etched on each side) and it's taken us a lot of R&D time to find some patterns that laser etched well, and looked good. We'll likely eventually offer a custom-laser-etch service, but we're a bit nervous doing so, as we've found, in our experiments, that most ideas don't look good, and so there's a lot of wastage, and time spent, to achieve something. Selling something that a customer ultimately doesn't like, is never a good idea.
We're also offering an “X-Ray vision” laser etch pattern, which is fairly subtle.
