Born in September 2024, VacBrew was inspired by the electric coffee culture of Seattle—a city where innovation brews as boldly as its coffee. From Stumptown’s pioneering cold brew in Pioneer Square to Victrola’s single-origin pour-overs in Capitol Hill, Seattle’s third-wave scene, fueling a thriving $752M U.S. cold brew market, set the stage for our vision. Our Hong Kong-based team of coffee enthusiasts and engineers crafted a machine that captures Seattle’s artisanal soul, delivering barista-quality cold brew to homes worldwide.

Every VacBrew is a masterpiece of craft and technology. After tireless prototyping, material testing, and feedback from coffee lovers, we unveiled our game-changer: the -0.5 Bar Vacuum Pump. This patented innovation extracts smooth, velvety flavors in just 12 minutes, matching the clarity of Stumptown’s cold brew. Encased in a sleek Tritan body with a metal filter, VacBrew ensures flawless consistency, while its one-touch interface makes premium coffee effortless. It’s not just a machine—it’s a statement, transforming your kitchen into a Seattle coffeehouse.

Our journey has sparked a global movement. In September 2024, we launched on Kickstarter, captivating a worldwide community, and showcased our innovation at Berlin’s IFA show, where tech enthusiasts embraced our vision. We clinched the Gold Award at Hong Kong’s Smart Design Awards for our fusion of elegance and function. In September 2025, we dazzled design aficionados at Maison & Objet in Paris, and in October 2025, we captivated the global coffee industry at HostMilano, the world’s premier coffee exhibition, blending Italian espresso mastery with Seattle’s cold brew revolution. These milestones reflect our commitment to redefining coffee for connoisseurs everywhere.

From the emerald hills of Seattle to the neon pulse of Mong Kok, VacBrew is for those who demand the extraordinary. It’s Seattle’s coffee revolution, reimagined by Hong Kong’s ingenuity, crafted to elevate your daily ritual. Join us in brewing bold, living inspired, and savoring the finest.
