Coffee Capsule Inventor Looks Toward Tea

By on January 6, 2013 in Inventions

Eric Favre, credited as the inventor of the Nespresso coffee capsule system, is going to take a leap into the Asian market with a similar system that makes tea reports The Independent.

Favre … will unveil his new “Tpresso” system in Beijing next Wednesday.

The head of Swiss firm Monodor “has been working for 30 years on tea” and a capsule concept, the spokesman said. He added that Favre was counting mainly on the demanding Asian market to launch the product.

Capsule systems rely on the combination of pre-packaged single doses of coffee and a proprietary machine similar to espresso machines. Some brands, including those produced by Favre’s firm, also offer tea in capsules.

    Eric Favre is responsible for rocketing up the amount of additional resource extraction, materials processing, manufacturing, shipping, and waste with every cup of coffee served.

    He’s a pariah among environmentalists.
