The company bills the machine on its Web site as able to “bring out the subtle nuances of all of your coffees through complete, independent control of all of the important brew parameters: grind size, dose, water temperature, and contact time.” There are a few hundred Clover machines throughout the U.S. and the world, mostly in small, high-end cafes, but there is only one other Clover in New England, according to the Clover Web site.
