+ Coffee Lovers Rejoice!

There is finally a way to make that perfect cup of coffee wherever and whenever you want at the touch of a button.

There are so many different ways to brew coffee these days that it makes getting that perfect cup of coffee a difficult, confusing, and expensive endeavor. From your everyday drip machines, French presses, and espresso… each method has its benefits, but they also have their drawbacks.

We got tired of being disappointed with our coffee so we set out to combine all the best elements of the top brewing methods without their drawbacks.

+ The Java Starr Is Born!

  • Easier than drip coffee
  • Less expensive than an espresso machine 
  • More precise than siphon brewing 

The Java Starr combines all of these elements to produce an unmatched flavor by re-inventing traditional VACUUM BREWING and bringing it into the 21st century,

The idea behind Java Starr was to utilize both positive and negative pressure to extract the most amount of flavor possible without any of the downsides that are inherent in other methods such as french press (positive pressure), siphon brewing (negative pressure), drip coffee (no pressure) etc.

+ How Vacuum Brewing Works

Our unique extraction process uses a double air pump to “Pull In” and “Push Out” the air in the sealed brewing chamber creating a vacuum.

  • Negative Pressure
The first air pump creates the “negative pressure” that “Pulls” the water from the container into the brewing chamber to mix with the coffee ground and extract the flavor.
  • No Pressure
The air pumps then shut off to allow the water to fully immerse the grounds for a full and even extraction.
  • Positive Pressure
This process repeats several times (depending on how much coffee is being brewed) to make sure the ideal extraction/water ratio is achieved.

This static and dynamic combination of extraction techniques is not only more sufficient, but you can see the whole process!

+ The First Set-And-Forget System Of It’s Caliber

While the Java Starr brewing process might look similar to traditional Vacuum brewing  it actually utilizes a proprietary digitally controlled, automatic extraction method.

What does this mean for you?
It means that not only do you get an improved and more consistent extraction every time, but because all of the complicated elements have been digitized and accounted for you get this amazing coffee all of this with the push of a button.

It even works wonderfully with your favorite loose leaf tea as well!

+ How Easy Is The Java Starr To Use?

  • Fill the carafe with the amount of water you want to brew.
  • Turn on the heating function on the carafe
  • While the water is brought to the perfect temp fill the brewing chamber with your favorite coffee and lock it to the rest of the brewing assembly with a twist.
  • When the carafe’s heating cycle finishes, replace the top of the carafe with the brewing assembly and lock it with a twist. 
  • Select your preferred strength and batch size from the icons on the control panel 
  • Sit back and watch the Java Starr work its magic. 
  • When the brewing cycle is complete remove the brewing assembly, pour into your favorite mug of the Java Starr travel tumbler and enjoy your coffee just the way you like it!

+ Portable, Durable & Delicious

You don’t just drink coffee at home, you drink it at the office, on the road, even when you go camping or cottaging. Why should you have to sacrifice the flavor you love just because of where you are? 

With the Java Starr all you need is the upper brewing assembly and you can brew coffee out of pretty much any vessel (including the Thermal Travel Mug it comes with)

With it’s rechargeable, lithium battery the Java Starr is able to brew up to 45 cycles of amazing coffee anywhere, anytime, wirelessly, at the touch of a button.

+ The Flavor You Love Either HOT or COLD

Cold brew coffee without the wait

There are two ways to brew coffee with the Java Starr – with heat, or without. With our cold brewing process, you simply use room temperature or cool water. Select the Cold Brew button on the control panel and let the Java Starr do the rest!

How does this work?

Earlier we talked about how getting the perfect temperature and time right for a cup of coffee is super important. Well the same is true for cold brewing.

The we designed the JavaStarr to be super easy to clean. It’s built in cleaning program does most of the heavy lifting for you. 

When you want to give it a deep clean the JavaStarr is easy to disassemble and wash fully because it has no internal pipes or ducts, meaning there is nowhere for minerals or mildew to grow affecting health or flavor.

+ FAQ

Most baristas and coffee Aficionados say that 96º is the ideal temp why does it only go to 95º

  • The optimum water temperature for brewing coffee is between 91 and 96 degrees Celsius (195-205 degrees Fahrenheit). And that’s why there is a  thermometer on top of the kettle/ boiler. Without a thermometer, a good rule of thumb is to take the water off the boil for 30 seconds before brewing.
  • Theoretically, it would take around 30 seconds or so to remove the lid from the boiler and sit the machine on top before brewing coffee which helps to cool down the water a little bit.

Will the machine know if water is room temp or colder when using the cold brew function?

  • No it does not. This WILL affect the flavor, so test it out and see which method you prefer for your cold brew! And remember you can always pour it over ice.

How does the self cleaning system work and will I still have to do some cleaning?

  • It is similar to a brewing process, which pumps the water through the pipe and use pressure to push it back down to clean any remaining coffee grounds that may have left during the brewing process. You don’t need to clean it after, just simply dump the water and let it dry out.

Can I  brew coffee using my camping stove/pot over fire?

  • Yes, you can use camping stove/pot over fire to get boiled water. Then take the pot away from fire and use the machine to make coffee. As long as the intake funnel is fully submerged during the whole process it doesn’t matter what vessel it is placed in.
