Brewing the tea of the future

BKON recently launched a new high tech tea maker that is aimed at revolutionizing tea houses. The BKON Craft Brewer promises the perfect cup of tea every time. It even can nail down the flavor profile of second and third infusions on the first brew. The only downside? The $13,000 price tag. Currently you can find the Craft Brewer in 5 U.S. locations but BKON (pronounced beacon) aims to be in 100 locations by the end of summer.
According to Dean Vastardis, Bkon co-founder, the firm’s patented Reverse Atmospheric Infusion process infuses beverages through controlled negative pressure. 'Reverse Atmospheric Infusion actually changes the air pressure, so the soluble flavor elements and natural sugars are extracted more completely and with greater purity.'
The firm says the Reverse Atmospheric Infusion changes the physics of extraction by controlling negative atmospheric pressure during the infusion process.
Gases are released from the pores of the tea to create a void for the water to infuse.
The boiling temperature of the water is reduced to accelerate agitation at a molecular level.
This process targets and extracts optimal elements of the tea at key phases of the brew cycle, producing a unique clean finish and full body mouth feel.
The machine isn't on sale just yet, but it's been in testing at a small number of cafes for a little while now, including Starbucks' Teavana pilot store in New York.
