Microwaveable ready-to-drink coffee
« on: July 05, 2006, 10:36:41 pm »

[JavaVoo is preparing to launch a microwavable pressurised coffee cup which can brew coffee in just two minutes.

The Micro-Brew Personal Barista takes just 120 seconds to prepare a ready-to-drink cup of espresso or latte, according to Piranet.

The company is currently mass-producing the product in preparation for its US launch, which should take place in the next five or six months, after which it hopes to roll the technology out across Europe.

The Micro-Brew is reported to replicate the pressure-brewing process found in an espresso machine and consists of two chambers, one containing water and the other containing the coffee.

The water heats up and is then released into the chamber containing the coffee, resulting in a ready-to-drink beverage.

As well as launching its own brand of coffee, the company plans to licence the technology out to other companies and has even received queries regarding the technology's suitability for organic herbal drinks and medicinal purposes.

Robert Vu, chief executive officer of JavaVoo, told Piranet that the only way to obtain a herbal extract such as ginseng at present is to brew the herb in a clay pot.

"A person can get the same extract by placing the herb in the pressurised cup," he revealed.]
