Product Description
SMALL BUT MIGHTY
OREA BREWER O1®, AKA BABY O → a compact unibody flat bottom brewer designed for achieving the perfect single cup brew. Consistent, fast, packable and versatile.
SPECIAL EDITION x TRUNK
This is a dream collaboration with one of our favourite people in the coffee industry - Yasuo Suzuki, the Founder of TRUNK coffee in Japan and China and the creator of the Origami Brewer. An unlikely collaboration, but one that feels even more special as a result. The most NEON pink we could make - iridescent, bright, playful. Maybe it's not for everyone, but if it's for you... it's really for you. A special and also limited edition that we hope you will love as much as we do!
FROM LONDON TO SHENZHEN, CONNECTED BY YASUO
This projects celebrates Yasuo's journey in coffee through our little magical flat bottom brewer. From roasting in Japan and China to creating the Origami Dripper and the Funtasy Cups, amongst other projects, Yasuo has travelled around the world and made a big impact. What always links his work together is a bit of fun, lots of pink, lots of energy. We wanted to capture this energy into a super unique and lovable little device.
WHY WE MADE THE BABY O
Another brewer? Really? YES. Because many have asked us for this and we'll tell you exactly why. We stopped making small/compact/155 size brewers a few years ago. We wanted to focus on one size to make things easy for us, from a paper, guidance, and supply chain perspective. Bigger brewers are versatile, but small brewers excel in two main areas that many people care about:
BETTER FOR SMALL DOSES
A lot of our customers brew just single doses (10-18g) and want a format of brewer that fits that range better. A smaller device will allow the brewer to get closer to the bed of coffee with the kettle spout, giving more control on application of water and control of agitation. It also has less material and thus will take away less heat over the brew from the coffee slurry.
EASIER FOR TRAVEL
A smaller brewer is a lot easier to pack, on the go. It weighs less and fits in more corners of a bag. It's just an easier object to bring around with you, and that matters to a lot of folks!
HIGH CLARITY, HIGH VIBRANCY
Our first plastic brewer (The V3 Trogamid) was clear - but not quite as exquisite as the O1. It takes time to find the right manufacturers that truly care about quality and details as much as we do. In fact, it has taken us nearly 5 years. The attention to detail in tooling design, polishing, and in the injection itself yields a perfect object with no injection or flow marks. The best quality plastic brewer in the industry - PERIOD. We dare you to compare this with anything anyone else is making.
Made from a single-piece of 100% food-safe, BPA Free Tritan plastic. Polished to perfection and manufactured with care in a family-run boutique plastic factory. With the O1, we wanted to set a new standard for what you should expect from plastic coffee brewers - high quality materials and even higher quality execution and attention to detail. We are here to make the best!
This material and the quality tooling allow us to make this vibrant NEON green brewer that literally shines in your hand, which is something very unique.
SUPERIOR MATERIALS
There are some industry secrets and rumours of incorrect plastic labelling by many companies making "cheap brewers". In fact, many brewers that are labelled as TRITAN are not - they are made using a lower-grade PCTG material. This material is less impact-resistant, less optically clear, and feels quite different. We use the true Eastman Tritan material, made in USA 🇺🇸. Using the real deal is important - even if it's more expensive - because we know the material is safe at high temperatures and will last as intended. The original made in USA material has been used by reputable companies like Nalgene for cold and hot water contact bottles for years.
UNIBODY
The OREA Brewer O1 is a clean, single-piece work of art. Simple, light, and very compact - with no moving parts. If you prefer a zero-fuss, easy-to-clean, simple and flexible brewer - this one's for you. Made from an impeccable optically clear BPA-free Tritan plastic.
ORIGINAL OPEN BOTTOM
Our original OPEN bottom design has featured in our Glass, Porcelain and V4 plastic brewers for years. The OPEN bottom provides a ridge for the flat paper to stand atop, designed to find the perfect balance of support and space. The paper naturally bends through the middle, encouraging a more central flow of water through the coffee bed. With this style of brewer we find our most unique profile of acidity, with a more conical flow pattern through a shallow flat bottom bed. Candy-like acidity without sacrificing balance, sweetness and body. A masterpiece that has been much duplicated but not yet replicated.
SUPREMELY CONSISTENT
This design has been praised for years by our customers for the consistency brew-to-brew. In a way, it is the design where we interfere least, letting gravity dictate how water flows and how the bed can behave. We love this inherent simplicity and the consistency it brings. The profile in the cup sits somewhere between the conical brewers and traditional flat brewers. Brighter and clean acidity, but a lot of balance. This bottom produces a lighter, more tea-like body than our other flat bottoms, which many praise and love. If you are after brews with thicker body, we recommend our V4 or Z1 brewers.
