My, what a wonderful improvement we have with this latest and greatest prototype! As we planned for, we did improve with this latest iteration. Naomi breaks down what exactly is different from the last prototype!
Recap to those new to our journey (welcome!), we are in product development and currently on our fourth generation. We will have a total of ten prototypes so our team and the engineering team can work more efficiently and solve any issues that pop up. We are working our way towards all necessary testing and certifications and will ultimately lock in the correct brew ratios, temps and times to make a perfect cup of coffee, each and every time ☕️
So, back to the video. What's changed? Glad you asked.
1. Hopper: no longer at a diagonal but vertical so we won't be spilling those beans (get it??) 🫘
2. Removal of grind size: we know you like a gazillion choices BUT we are locking in grind size to be best with our brewer, every time.
3. Water reservoir: changed the lid to not fall in the water. Simple idea, really.
4. Hopper size: size matters! We made the hopper bigger to hold about 80g (this may change in the final design so don't count this as final)
5. User interface: removed light, medium and strong options. Again, don't hate us. We do know a thing or two about coffee and are following SCA guidelines to get a perfectly extracted cup, every time. Trust us on this.

We hear the same question when we are out and about and decided to address it once and for all...
Today, you will learn how our Nomi Brew Podbuster works! 🥳
Thankfully, it's simple and only takes 3 easy steps:
1. Beans: pour whole beans into the hopper
2. Filter: add a #2 filter to the brew basket
3. Water: make sure you have water (ideally purified!!)
Choose your cup size and hit start! You'll get a freshly ground cup of coffee three minute later. ☕️
And because we love you, you can schedule your brew so you don't even have to wait. Just walk into your kitchen and start drinking. ❤️
What more can you ask for?! Really, we want to know so share below!

More photos of our fourth generation prototype. We really love how the overall look has improved from the third generation.
The user interface has changed as well to include:
- Schedule Brew: bringing back the old school because isn’t that what is best?? This allows to set the clock for anytime you want that cup waiting for ya
- Just Brew: in by popular demand...this allows to bypass the grinder so the rest of your household thanks you in the morning. Use for ground coffee that can be prepped the night before.
- Descale: icon will light up after every 100 brew cycles
- Clear Grinder: want to rid the grinder of any leftover beans? This button lets you do just that.
What do you think? Share suggestions or feedback on the overall look and function!
Videos of it working will come soon! Photos are easier for our small team but we do have a video shoot scheduled for this week!

A REMOVABLE steel conical burr grinder?! Yes, dreams do come true in the form of our fourth generation prototype.
We can’t get over this major improvement from our previous version. You see, a commonly asked question (and our near obsession) was how to easily clean the grinder. So, our engineers plotted away and did what they do best: they solved the problem and just made it removable for easy access and, of course, cleaning.
What do you think of it?!
P.S follow us along as we change coffee for the better. We are ending pods for good, folks.

Drumroll, please 🥁
Our fourth generation prototype has dropped and we can't be more happy about it. What has changed, you ask? Well, Naomi is going to show you all the things so you can be as pumped up as we are.
Here is what we are most excited about:
- Grinder: Steel conical Burr grinder is REMOVABLE for easy cleaning and the grinder noise has significantly decreased from the third generation
- Bean to Cup Time: Under 3 minutes for the small cup, including grind time. We have a "Schedule Brew" for those who are truly impatient so you can just walk in and grab your cup immediately
- User Options: Due to popular demand, we implemented a "Just Brew" that bypasses the grinder. If you don't want to wake others up in the morning, this helps you do that!
- Brew Style: Immersion style!! Think French Press but with a touch of a button
We are going to be following Specialty Coffee Association guidelines to ensure we are making the best cup possible, every time. We will get into all those nerdy details to explain how coffee machines are not created equal and why this matters to us so much.
Spread the word, folks. The perfect cup of coffee is coming soon in a single-serve machine near you.
Best of all? Not one single (awful) pod will be used.

Hi, my name is Naomi and I founded Nomi Brew. It’s time we finally meet.
I first started working on this crazy coffee machine idea back in July of 2021 while balancing another company. Because of that, I decided to not launch social until I had more of a team. I instead focused on the initial idea and getting that idea to a working prototype. Fast forward, we made it to our third prototype and received our first round of funding late last year. With that in place, I then started building the right team.
You’ve met our Director of Quality, Scott McMartin, through earlier posts. He is a fountain of coffee expertise and I thought we could first start sharing in-depth knowledge about coffee. Fast forward again, I soon realized we were missing the heartbeat of Nomi Brew. We paused social media until we could do it better.
That’s where I am coming in.
You see, I founded Nomi Brew with a heart for doing good and a vision to radically improve how we drink coffee. I believe we can have the best cup of coffee without pod waste while doing good for the farmers. I believe we can improve single-serve coffee and ultimately, do better with coffee in America. I believe we can have the cake and eat it too.
There are alarming things happening around sustainability in coffee and coffee may not be around for the foreseeable future. There are lots of complicated factors in this but the easiest way to solve this is to pay for better quality coffee. And have fun doing it, in my opinion.
So I’m going to pull back the curtain and give you an inside look at what we’re doing at Nomi Brew, from product development to our journey toward manufacturing. You’ll see our commitment to quality and why sustainability is at the core of everything we do.
Along the way, you’ll get to know me and my team more. We are a fun bunch of people but remain serious about making the best cup of coffee possible and doing as much good as possible with Nomi Brew.
Get ready, folks. You’re in for a whole lot of good ahead.
P.S. I have a Persian cat named Louie who loves to be grumpy but is so cute!

We had a great time sharing about the mission and vision for Nomi Brew last Thursday at the beautiful Oracle campus in Austin! It was inspiring to hear other founders speak and encouraging to hear the feedback from investors!
Special thanks to the TEN Capital Network event and the hard their TEN team!

Our love for these coffee pickers is the main reason we do what we do. ❤️
I know I sound like a broken record over here but you may be new here. One of the reasons specialty coffee is so darn good is that the coffee cherries are all handpicked, at the most optimal time, by coffee pickers. These are beautiful humans who we just adore.
Why are these pickers so incredible, you ask? Well, we have an entire list on that and we are happy to share. Glad you asked. 😉
☕️ Specialty coffee pickers are highly skilled individuals who only select the ripest coffee cherries for harvest. This requires massive attention to detail and, boy, are they fast in doing so. We will share videos of pickers in action to show you!
☕️ Sustainability is the name of the game! Many specialty coffee farms prioritize sustainable farming practices, which often extend to fair wages and better working conditions for specialty coffee pickers. In addition (and this is huge), specialty coffee pickers are compensated higher for their labor
☕️ Season work: this may not be obvious but coffee cherries are not available all year (think of growing cucumbers in Texas...it's only a summer thing). Because of this, pickers work long hours to ensure all ripe cherries are collected promptly
We love our coffee pickers. Keep buying specialty coffee, folks, as you'll put good people to work!
