Engineering Meets Extraction
Commercial extraction equipment built by a production engineer, refined alongside working coffee and beverage producers.
Where This Started
This started with a real production problem, not a business plan. A Charleston cocktail mixer company needed high-strength coffee concentrate for an espresso martini mix and couldn't find equipment that hit the volume, concentration, or consistency they needed. The local roaster they turned to had the same problem from the other direction. Existing options were either DIY buckets that couldn't scale, or industrial systems priced for a different customer entirely.
With over a decade of production equipment design experience, the founder treated it as an engineering problem first. The first system worked. Refining it alongside the roasters and producers who actually ran it every day is what turned a working prototype into equipment built for daily production, not a one-off.
How We Approach Design
Every design decision starts with the operator, not the spec sheet. The quick-release mechanism exists because lifting 30-plus pounds of hot, saturated material by hand, repeatedly, all day, is the kind of task that eventually hurts someone. The hybrid hot-and-cold workflow exists because equipment sitting idle overnight is capital doing nothing. Automated water dosing exists so one person can run a full production shift without babysitting every cycle.
None of this was designed in isolation. Every feature was shaped by producers running it in real conditions, on real volume, coffee first, and now extending to tea, botanicals, fruit, and other solids built on the same core system.
Built in Charleston
Designed and manufactured in Charleston, South Carolina, by an engineer with 14 years in production equipment design, including a decade-plus specifically in machine design. This isn't a first product from a startup finding its footing, it's an engineering discipline applied to a market that's been underserved by both ends of the price spectrum.
If you're producing a concentrate and the equipment you're using can't keep up with where you're headed, that's exactly the gap this was built to close.
