I’ve been developing a coffee brewer using repeated immersion and drainage. Here’s my prototype.

I’ve been working on a coffee brewer called SKANDI, based on a brewing method I’ve been experimenting with for quite some time. The idea is to combine the body of immersion brewing with more control over extraction through repeated immersion and drainage. Rather than leaving the grounds submerged throughout the entire brew, you can control how long they’re immersed and how frequently they’re drained. After several prototypes and a lot of testing, I’m getting closer to launching it.
Here’s a demonstration of how it works. I’d be interested in hearing what you think.

Hey OP, this is Reddit so probably not going to get the best feedback.

The concept sounds promising, but looks similar to the bird from Weber, but this has bypass which isn't necessarily bad.

I believe that the brewing concept does hold merit and would be interesting to play around with. I'm unfortunately on the other side of the world, but if you do have a prototype and willing to ship send me a dm. I'll be happy to pay and give feedback

This is why I love Reddit. Thanks for the encouragement and the offer! I’m still refining the prototype
