The millerighe effect derives from the processing of the door, characterized by a succession of vertical millings that create a striped effect Arredo3 proposes the Asia millerighe composition on bases and drawers or tall units and over-tall units, to create a pleasant aesthetic continuity from top to bottom

The veneered doors are part of the

Comforting Color: 2023 Hues Draw from Nature

Perhaps it’s only fitting that after spending the better part of the past three years shut in, our world is set to get more colorful with hues taken from the outdoors

Both Benjamin Moore and Krylon chose natural tones for their colors of the year.

“People are ready to bring color back into the home, taking a step outside their color comfort zones,” said Andrea Magno, color marketing and d e v e l o p m e n t d i r e c t o r a t B e n j a m i n Moore, which declared Raspberry Blush 2008-30 as its top color

“

T h i s y e a r ’ s c o l o r s e l e c t i o n i s inspired by the comfort and reassurance found in the past, as we look to find contentment in the future,” said Ashley Banbury, senior color designer for Krylon, which selected Spanish Moss as its color

Raspberry Blush 2008-30, a saturated red-orange that enlivens surroundi n g s w h i l e a w a k e n i n g s e n s e s w i t h charismatic color is “unapologetic in its boldness as it encourages a confident color statement,” Magno said.

“Raspberry Blush 2008-30 and the Color Trends 2023 palette empower the use of statement colors that deliver delight and personality, while transforming rooms for incredible results,” Magno said

To commemorate this year’s select i o n , B e n j a m i n M o o r e e n l i s t e d renowned electro-funk duo Chromeo to underscore the upbeat and optim i s t i c t o n e o f t h e p a l e t t e a n d t h e

Krylon’s Spanish Moss, a natural hue that brings the poetic expressions of nature into the home, is a nod to all things vintage The familiar yet inspirational color balances cool and warm accents to seamlessly support the tran-

Innovative Appliances Add Excitement

By A J Flick

To paraphrase Sheriff Brody in “Jaws,” I’m going to need a bigger kitchen” – to get all the appliances I’d like to have It’s always exciting to see innovations in the houseware appliance market and we’ve got a bunch for you this month.

JURA fuels the coffee craze with E4, a full-sized coffee machine focused on the essentials of brewing to perfection The E4 brews cafe-quality coffee and espresso, plus it can deliver hot water on demand for Americano or tea

The E4 is designed to appeal to a large target market, from those who love the intensity of coffee-only beverages to new users who may later trade up to models that incorporate milkbased coffee specialties

The E4 eliminates the need for pods or capsules, while rewarding the user with the rich taste of coffee brewed from freshly ground whole beans

A P r o f e s s i o n a l A r o m a G r i n d e r , eighth-generation brewing unit and 3D b r e w i n g p r o c e s s w o r k t o g e t h e r t o enhance full-bodied aroma. The brewing unit can hold up to 16 grams of coffee. Users can customize their brew to t a s t e w i t h t h r e e i n t e n s i t y l e v e l s t o choose from

With one touch, the user can select the desired option on the intuitive symbol display The E4 offers the option of brewing two cups at once or a double shot into one cup, thanks to its dual spout and double grinding cycle The hot water function is ideal for preparing tea or adding hot water to espresso to create an authentic Americano

The E4 has a 64-ounce water tank and 10-ounce whole bean container, providing ample capacity for daily use or entertaining The Intelligent Water System, CLEARYL filter cartridge and integrated rinsing, cleaning and descaling programs help ensure pure taste in the cup

The E4 is crafted with maximum precision, with minimalist lines for contemporary style.

The JURA E4 comes in Piano Black and Piano White, for an actual retail price of $1,299

For those who love whipped cream in their coffee (guilty!) and whipped cream in other applications, iSi has created its Eco Series System of whippers and chargers iSi has taken on the challenge to reduce climate impact with investments in factories, purpose-driven product development and care for the world

The Eco Series Green Whip and Eco Series Professional Charger for whipping food was developed for restaurants, cafes and home chefs to serve d e l i c i o u s , f r e s h w h i p p e d c r e a m a n d cold foams with a substantially lower climate impact – while enjoying significant ingredients cost savings.

The Eco Series System is the only 100 percent climate neutral food whip-

ping system on the market, according to iSi The Eco Series Whipping System can produce 15 percent more servings with the same ingredients – a savings of up to 10 percent for most customers

The savings are even more significant for restaurants using aerosol cans of whipped cream.

The iSi Green Whip and Eco Series Professional Chargers operate exactly like existing iSi whipper systems However, new technology produces more portions using the same ingredients and has enough power to whip up plant-based and even vegan whipped toppings

Through major investments in technology, use of renewable energy in production and investments in compensation projects, the entire portfolio of iSi chargers is now certified 100 percent climate neutrally produced iSi is the first to use new technology that captures released nitrous oxide gas during production and transforms the emission into the earth-friendly gases nitrogen and oxygen, according to the company

N o t o n l y a r e t h e E c o S e r i e s Chargers produced climate neutrally, the U.N. Certified compensation project is also engaged to further mitigate the transportation and use of each charger, creating the very first 100 percent climate neutral chargers available for use in home or restaurant

Like all iSi whipping siphons, the new Eco Series Green Whip is NSF, can be hand or machine washed, and has the flexibility to create multiple flavors, m a k i n g i t t h e p e r f e c t w h i p p e r f o r adding different ingredients resulting in layers of flavor

T h e i S i E c o S e r i e s W h i p p e r a n d Charger System consists of the iSi Green Whip (1 pint capacity) and the 8 4g Eco Series Professional Charger (10, 24 and 50 pack)

KNHR: How has this approach driven growth?

MR: Switching from a drip machine, a pod brewer or a drive-through can be an intimidating move We think our approach to content has created a more inviting on-ramp for people who want better coffee but don’t know where to start, or for people who are a bit wary of c e l e b r i t y e n d o r s e m e n t s a n d w a n t something they feel they can believe in We want great coffee to be approachable and achievable, and with a grow-

The wider range of products in the new Fusion will make it a destination in retail stores.

Scented and decorative jar candles are the latest addition to the Fusion brand and will play an important role helping retailers to balance their sales mix between scented wax melts and candles Syndicated POS data demonstrates strong sales potential for both candles and wax melts, and the Fusion combination of both will give buyers the opportunity to leverage one suppli-
