Experience a Faster, Bigger, Bolder Cup of Coffee with Touch Brewers

Touch Coffee & Beverages has reinvented the single-serve coffee platform with the release of its ground-breaking Touch® brewers and re-engineered capsules and will be showing off its product line-up at the 2016 International Home + Housewares Show. These easy-to-use systems  promise to brew superior-tasting, coffee shop-quality coffee in significantly less time than current machines and are fully compatible with any cup at all—from existing Keurig K-Cups® to generic cups, in addition to Touch’s XBold Cups™, XLarge Cups™ and reusable Refill Jumbo Cup™. Visit the brand in Lakeside Hall for a product demo and a cup of coffee to see—and taste—the difference.

­According to the National Coffee Association USA, the brewing water temperature for a good cup of coffee is “between 195-205 degrees Fahrenheit for optimal extraction.” Touch brewers reach this ideal temperature by using its Flash Heating system and starts brewing in under 20 seconds after being off all night. Plus, Touch heats just enough water for the selected cup size, as opposed to the entire tank of water, and the machine turns itself off after using, making it more energy efficient than its competitors.

Touch’s superior coffee quality is also due to the fact that the hot water has more contact with the coffee grounds, which ensures that all of the coffee flavor is extracted. Other machines take much longer to warm up and then shoot water through the coffee grounds too quickly, so you end up throwing away untapped flavor with the used capsule. Even with a slower, more deliberate brew, when factoring in the warm-up time, Touch still turns out a cup of joe in a fraction of the time.

Compared to most K-Cups, which only contain up to 9 to 11.5 grams of coffee, XBold Cups  pack up to 15 grams of coffee and XLARGE CUPS provide up to 18 grams of coffee. Flavor Grooves swirl the coffee grinds to release bold aromas and flavors. The Refill Jumbo Cup packs up to 40 grams of your favorite coffee grounds—ideal for filling a carafe or large travel mug.

With Touch, you can customize your coffee experience and brew larger cups of coffee without sacrificing flavor. The various models allow for a choice of different cup sizes and brew strengths. Plus, a removable 90-ounce water tank has a greater capacity and is shorter in height than its counterparts, meaning you will be refilling less often, and it will be less awkward when you do.

“We have incorporated our innovative technology to our single-serve system—and the single-serve cups that accompany it—with one goal in mind: the perfect cup, every time,” says CEO Sam Kim. “Not only did we succeed at designing a machine that produces coffeehouse-quality coffee, but we have also made it convenient, intuitive, quiet and quick with a high-end design.”
