ALL YOU NEED IN ONE

The Z1 Travel Pack is a really tidy solution for on-the-go brewing with the amazing Z1 Brewer. A cup, pouring “carafe”, and the easy-to-brew-anywhere Z1 that comes with a Melodrip, so you don’t even need a fancy pouring kettle. All you need besides what is in this pack is hot water and coffee. ZERO compromises – brew the best anywhere you go.

 

 

WHY WE MADE THIS

The best brewer you own should not be hard to bring with you. This has been the guiding philosophy from day 1. In fact, not many know, but before the OREA V1, we designed and almost launched a travel-specific foldable brewer. The conclusion back then is the same as today – no one truly wants to own a brewer just for travel (ok – some edge cases may exist), but generally everyone would love it if they could easily travel with their favourite brewer. With this in mind, we designed a superb travel pack for the Z1, to make brewing on the go even easier and return to the roots of why OREA even exists today.

 

VERSION 8-ish

We have tried to make a lot of “travel packs” for the previous brewers. From the V2, V3, V4 – we really iterated a lot of times over the last 4 years. However, none of those attempts felt right. Everything felt bulky, or clunky – and just not… right. Filters were often an issue, and complex geometries imposed forms we did not love. We were just never happy with the results. So we never released them! We are now  on version 8, or 7, or 10 – we can’t even remember to be honest. But that does not matter. What matters is that we have been thinking about this for a very long time, and we finally have a brewer with the right format for easy travel brewing. A tiny filter, easy to pack, a simpler form, a drip assist, and a compact size. It finally all came together – 4 years later – sometimes life is like that.

 

 

FOR THE EXPLORERS

Explorers are not just those that climb mount Everest or circumnavigate the earth by bike – it can be anyone that likes to travel, go outdoors, and experience new things. People are always on the move, going somewhere, pushing forward. If you just want to brew in the park, make your parents a nice cup of coffee, brew on a plane, or – of course – on top of a mountain, this pack can make the experience hassle-free.

 

THE CUP – THE SECRET

This travel pack is really a cup (or two) that keeps everything tidy and secure. It is beautiful – see through – and made from the same BPA free Tritan material as the Z1 brewer.

 

 

INSULATING

The material is thick and thermally insulating, making sure not to burn your hand while keeping the coffee warm.

 

BEAUTIFUL

We love glass – but it is not very travel friendly. We wanted to make a travel cup that makes you feel like you’re at home – transparent to see the coffee (and the view) – and easy to drink from.

 

POUR PERFECT 

The cup has a minimal spout built in that allows for controlled pouring at a great 5 g/s, the recommended pouring rate. When you are not pouring, it won’t get in the way or disturb from the cup visuals. We wanted to design something that is functional but not intrusive.

 

 

STACKABLE

The cups are designed to stack, so you can add cups as you please, to build your ideal system.

 

DESIGNED TO STAY TOGETHER

The cup features a ridge on the bottom where an elastic cord can securely fasten everything together, through the lid. A little tug on the cord and everything is secured together, ready to go.

 

ONE CUP – OR TWO

You can choose the setup you prefer, using one cup or two. Here’s how we would describe the use cases:

 

ONE CUP PACK

You like to travel ultra-minimal. A cup to brew into, taking up the smallest space. In this case you use an insulated bottle or a regular kettle (in a hotel room, for example) for pouring on the Melodrip. Great for the solo minimalist that wants the smallest pack.

 

TWO CUP PACK

You want a bit of comfort and flexibility – or you brew for two. In this setup, you can use one cup to brew into and another one as the pouring carafe, with a perfect 5 g/s pour. You could also use the second cup for sharing with another person. Of course, a two cup pack weighs more and takes more space than the one cup setup.

 

 

SMALL AND LIGHT

Compared to other “all-in-one” brewing solutions, this one is considerably lighter and more compact. We also did not design a new brewer around a travel system – rather a compact travel system around the great day-to-day brewer. We think this is worth a lot, because you can use the same device at home, at work, or on-the-go.

FINAL VERSION NOTICE

Please note that the photos above are based on the final pre-production sample. The final unit may have some very slight modifications (if required). This sometimes can happen in the production process as we test manufacturing at scale and have to adapt some small aspects. These are usual minor details and won’t impact the overall performance or looks of the product.
