Fellow makes refined espresso gear together with a drip espresso maker, digital scales, and variable-temperature kettles. They’re made for espresso afficionados, nevertheless it’s not all severe enterprise at Fellow HQ – every equipment has a hidden retro-style online game that you may play whereas having fun with your morning brew.
It is under no circumstances apparent the place to search out these video games, and so they aren’t talked about in Fellow’s manuals. After I examined the Fellow Aiden Precision Drip Coffee Maker in 2024, I had no thought what I used to be lacking till somebody talked about it at a barista expertise workshop I attended. At first I believed they have been joking, however the video games are fairly actual.
Will the forthcoming Fellow Espresso Series 1 offer you one thing new to play whereas sipping a cortado? We’ll have to attend and see (it is presently accessible for pre-order) however I anticipate so. This is how one can play all the present video games – and probably put together for the 2033 championships
1. Spacey
The Fellow Aiden Precision Brewer isn’t your average drip coffee maker. It has several customizable user profiles, and a menu of dedicated brewing profiles for different types of coffee – and this is where you’ll find the secret game Spacey.
Using the coffee maker’s large dial, scroll through the menu to ‘Edit profiles’ and press the dial once to select it. Scroll through the next menu to ‘Light roast’ and press the dial again. Now scroll to ‘Name | Light Roast’ and press the dial three times in quick succession.
You’re now at the helm of a tiny spaceship, which you can move left and right using the control dial. Shoot at enemies to destroy them, and collect as many Fellow logos as possible while you do.
2. Bricky
Fellow’s EKG Pro kettles are designed for making perfect pour-over. You can set the temperature to the degree Celsius or Fahrenheit (many temperature-controlled kettles can only be adjusted in increments of five degrees), and the kettle will keep the water at that temperature until you’re ready to pour.
EKG Pro kettles also have a hidden Breakout-style game to enjoy. To find it, turn on your kettle and remove it from its base. Press the menu button (beside the dial) once, then turn the dial at least six full rotations in either direction to launch the game.
Use your kettle’s dial to move your paddle left and right, bouncing the ball to clear bricks. The game has multiple levels, which get faster as you progress. You have three lives, and your kettle will save your score for each level in your current session.
These scores will be cleared when you want to start brewing coffee again, though, so Fellow recommends taking a quick picture with your phone to remember your achievements. To exit the game, press the menu button once.
3. Wormy
If you ever owned a Nokia ‘brick’ phone, you’ll remember Snake – the game where you control a tiny serpent that eat blocks, and must avoiding crossing over its own tail as it becomes longer. It’s the first game Fellow ever built into one of its products, and it’s hidden away in the Stagg EKG and Corvo EKG kettles.
As with Bricky, you begin by turning your kettle on and removing it from its base. Now just flick the Centigrade / Fahrenheit toggle back and forth, and eventually the game will load on its small circular screen.
Use the dial as a joystick to move the snake (sorry, worm) left, right, up, and down, and try to ‘eat’ as many Fellow logos as you can, as quickly as possible.
4. Jumpy
The Fellow Tally Pro Precision Scale might be small, but it’s also hiding its own retro-style game. Jumpy takes its name from Jump Man, but it plays more like the Chrome web browser’s built-in dinosaur game (which you can access by typing chrome://dino into the address bar).
You control a spaceman-like character (the titular Jumpy) as he runs along, dodging flying coffee mugs and jumping over Stagg tasting glasses. The longer you run without hitting an obstacle, the higher your score.
To start playing, turn on your scale, use the button above the dial to pick the ‘Brew Assist’ option, then turn the dial until you reach the ratio 1:42. Tap the timer button, and get ready to jump.
