Wigomat

The Wigomat was the world's first electrical drip coffee maker and patented in 1954 in Germany. It was named after the inventor Gottlob Widmann "Wi-go-mat", although some early machines were delivered as "FK-1" (for filter coffee machine).

Coffee was, until the late 1950s, brewed by hand or made in a percolator. In both cases the temperature was too high. Therefore, at the launch of the Wigomat it was advertised to have the best brewing temperature. In the 1970s many machines followed the principle of drip coffee, but the Wigomat remained one of the best: "The people at Zabar's tell us that their Wigomat Coffee Maker is one of the best of the currently popular instant-drip coffee makers" wrote a New York based magazine in 1975.
