Alpha Dominche FLASK™ Kickstarter Funded in Under 24 Hours

Alpha Dominche FLASK™ Kickstarter Funded in Under 24 Hours

BROOKLYN, NY – January 19th, 2018--- 

The highly-anticipated FLASK™ home coffee and tea brewer by Alpha Dominche has officially launched on Kickstarter’s crowdsourcing platform and they are off to a fast start. The project surpassed its initial funding goal of $40,000 in under 24 hours, and will now continue for another 34 days.

Alpha Dominche’s success with the commercial STEAMPUNK® brewer over the past 6 years inspired them to create a distilled consumer version for home users worldwide. The award winning STEAMPUNK® can be found in some of the most prominent cafes and restaurants around the globe, and now they are bringing their design and brewing experience to homes and offices.

“We see FLASK™ as an approachable and refined coffee press for anyone who brews at home, and it is inspired by our experience working with cafes, restaurants, and hotels around the Globe.” Says CEO Thomas Perez. “Our goal was to design a brewer that could provide consumers with a similar experience and cup quality of the STEAMPUNK® with new innovations for coffee and tea lovers alike. FLASK™ is approachable for any user, creates a delicious cup, and is much easier to clean than the majority of coffee presses.”

The FLASK™ combines the full immersion and visual brew process of the STEAMPUNK® commercial brewer in a leather wrapped, sleek, and beautiful serving vessel. The Alpha Dominche design team was set on solving common brewing annoyances, and this led them to the creation of FLASK’s patented brew valve mechanism. The FLASK™ brew valve seals and separates the grounds and leaves from the freshly brewed coffee and tea after the piston is pressed. This means that the coffee and tea will stop brewing once pressed and eliminates any concern of over-extracting. FLASK™ is simple to clean, and users can easily shoot spent grounds and leaves straight into their compost or waste bin after brewing.

The FLASK™ Kickstarter will run until February 22nd, and can be visited at this link: FLASK Kickstarter. Alpha Dominche plans to begin shipping their brewers to backers in July of 2018. You can visit their Extraction Lab in Brooklyn, NY to see their commercial and consumer brewers in action.  For more information please visit www.alphadominche.com or email flask@alphadominche.com.
