Eat enough Yoda apples and you just might live to be 900 (though look as good, you will not). To duplicate the version pictured here, all you will need is an apple, a marshmallow, a couple of chocolate chips, some peanut butter and a toothpick.

Now that George Lucas has “retired” from making Star Wars films, it looks like R2-D2 will have to find a new line of work – and apparently that means becoming a coffee machine.

Instructables user “iminthebathroom” had an idea to create a new device that would brew coffee quickly for larger dinner parties, and decided to combine an industrial BUNN type machine with the galaxy’s favorite droid. The best part is that he has provided step by step instructions, along with numerous photos, that can be used to create your own version.

Hit the jump to check out a video of the machine’s voice feature, which was made by hacking a recordable greeting card.
