Recently, a new coffee maker that can imprint your selfies in the froth is about to be put into use. This bizarre new gimmick is the latest in an ever more cut-throat coffee market. It works by using a tiny amount of liquid coffee extract which acts as an inkjet to “print” any image on the coffee foam in just under ten seconds.

最近,一种能将自拍照印在咖啡上的新式咖啡机即将投入使用。在竞争日渐激烈的咖啡市场,这个新奇的玩意儿是最新款式。这种咖啡机能在10秒之内用少量的液态咖啡提取物将任何照片印在咖啡泡沫上。

They have already been trialed with first-class and business-class passengers on Lufthansa flights, and at Wimbledon. Imprinting the selfies in the froth is the most eye-catching feature but the machines can also imprint thought-provoking quotes on the bubbles.

这些咖啡机已经在英国的温布尔顿以及德国汉莎航空公司的头等舱和商务舱进行了试用。在泡沫上印上自拍照虽然是最吸睛的特点,但是这些机器还可以在泡沫上印上一些发人深思的语录。

Darren Reid, 45, only picked up a paintbrush when he was 41. And as a self-taught painter, he has had no training. But Darren admitted the skill had come really naturally to him. “I'd always had an itch to try painting since I was at school, but I just never found the time,” he said.
