Their flagship product, the BRU Maker One, offers controlled brewing, precise temperature and timing, and self-cleaning functionality, all manageable via a smartphone application. The company’s technology focuses on delivering optimal tea extraction, ensuring consistency and a simplified preparation process for a discerning consumer base.
The company was co-founded in Zurich in 2019 by Bogdan Krinitchko, who serves as CEO, and Filip Carlberg, CMO.
