Pipp is a versatile commercial brewing system emerging from western Wyoming. It can brew espresso, tea, and immersion-brew coffee using boilerless, vertically oriented countertop units with cylindrical borosilicate glass brew chambers. A portafilter is attached underneath each chamber, with the Pipp 01 using standard 58-millimeter portafilters and the Pipp 64 using a custom 124-millimeter portafilter that accepts NextLevel paper filters for the Pulsar brewer. Users can program water volume, water temperature, infusion time, and air pressure. Water can percolate gently through medium or coarse grounds via gravity or under gentle pressure. The immersion mode uses steep-and-release passes, then suspends slurry using vacuum pressure before releasing the brew. Espresso uses preinfusion, then an air compressor pressurizes the water column to drive flow through the bed.
"The four brewing variables programmable by Pipp users are water volume, water temperature, infusion time and air pressure. Water filling the chamber can percolate gently through medium- or coarse-ground coffee for a drip-style brew, either by gravity alone or under gentle pressure."
"The standard Pipp immersion process includes two steep-and-release passes of fresh water through either coffee or tea. After water is added, a valve at the top of the chamber seals shut to suspend the slurry via vacuum pressure, akin to the physics of an upright AeroPress brewer. The valve then opens to release the brew."
"For espresso, a barista preps any 58-millimeter basket, then places a puck screen on top for even water dispersal. Low-pressure preinfusion occurs as a precise volume of water fills the chamber, after which a built-in air compressor pressurizes the column to push water through the bed."
"Both were introduced at World of Coffee San Diego last month. The boilerless, vertically oriented countertop systems center on cylindrical borosilicate glass brew chambers with a portafilter attached underneath. The Pipp 01 accepts standard 58-millimeter portafilters. The Pipp 64's custom portafilter, measuring 124 millimeters in diameter and 42 millimeters deep, accepts the paper filters made by NextLevel for the Pulsar brewer."
