I am a certified tea lover. But, I have always cherished the complex and nuanced experience of preparing latte, cappuccino, and espresso. Whenever I come across something like GrisBrew or De’Longhi’s Primadonna Aromatic coffee machine, I can’t help but appreciate the science behind preparing a nice cup of joe. All these machines are, however, restricted to home usage only. When you are out in the wild, camping, trekking, or fishing, you need a compact coffee machine that not only delivers delicious brew but also costs far less than other options available in the market. This is where the TurboBrew portable coffee maker enters the frame.
“TurboBrew is a portable electric vacuum coffee maker that combines pour-over and French press methods. It’s innovative negative-pressure turbo brew function accelerates filtration and prevents over-extraction, guaranteeing cafe-quality coffee with every cup,” states Simple Lab Experience, the creators behind the project.
The reason I am referring to TurboBrew as a ‘project’ is because the portable coffee maker is currently the subject of a crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter. The TurboBrew crowdfunding page highlights a few standout features that make the portable coffee maker a must-have for coffee aficionados. The first of these features is quick brewing. Unlike traditional pour-over setups that require precise pouring techniques and constant attention, TurboBrew automates the process without sacrificing quality.
“TurboBrew’s innovative Turbo Filtration system utilizes consistent negative pressure to actively draw coffee through a reusable hyper-filter, completing the extraction process in just 30 seconds. This built-in vacuum technology ensures fast, precise filtration and consistently delivers a perfectly brewed cup with rich flavor and clarity every time,” the creator states.
All one is required to do is add the ground coffee, pour in hot water, and press the button. TurboBrew will handle the rest. “The auto timer begins as soon as you press the button. In around 4 minutes, the system automatically initiates filtration to complete the brewing process, ensuring a consistent flavor,” the company informs. If you are a skilled barista, you can opt for manual operation.
Unlike traditional portable coffee makers that fizzle out after a single usage, TurboBrew boasts a rechargeable design, implying one does not need to require constant battery replacements. On top of that, one full charge gives you around 15 days of coffee joy, assuming you gulp two cups per day. Not to mention, the device also doubles as a thermos, keeping your coffee hot (or cold) for extended periods.

These features address the common pain points of portable coffee makers, such as inconsistent brewing, lack of portability, or complex operation, making TurboBrew a standout option in the portable coffee maker market that’s already flooded with options like iKoffy GoBrew, COFFEEJACK V2, and mokka to go, all showcasing the diversity of solutions available.
TurboBrew seems to distinguish itself by focusing on the pour-over method, which appeals to purists who value flavor clarity over the convenience of capsule-based systems or espresso machines. The best part, it costs only $49 (early bird price). The interested can pre-order their TurboBrew on Kickstarter.
