A normal coffee maker won’t cut it for dinner parties or any time you need a lot of coffee really fast. At this point, you have two options: you could buy an industrial coffee maker, or you could buy an industrial coffee maker and make it look like R2D2. Guess which option we think is cooler?
The R2D2 coffee pot was designed for large dinner parties where waiting five minutes for a pot of coffee to brew is just an inefficient use of time. Instead of a Mr. Coffee, [iminthebathroom] used an industrial BUNN coffee maker as R2’s body. This coffee maker has two water reservoirs, one that pours into the coffee filter and another that keeps a pot of coffee’s worth of water piping hot.
As for the cosmetic modifications to the coffee maker, [iminthebathroom] found a wonderful dome for R2’s head in a junk yard. It was formerly a giant ball valve, and a little work with a saw cut it down to a proper R2 skull shape. R2’s voice – as heard in the video below – come from a greeting card programmed with the bleeps and boops of the actual hero of the Star Wars saga.

You must repair him! Sir, if any of my circuits or gears will help, I’ll gladly donate them.
Actually, C3PO looks more like a coffee machine. A steampunk coffee machine
That’s not the droid I was looking for.
I think technically it’s a “commercial” coffee machine. I dunno what “industrial coffee” is but I imagine it makes your testicles shrivel and causes tumours. There’s probably tanks of the stuff round the back of asbestos factories.
