Boston-based Load&Road have designed Teplo, a smart bottle that helps tea drinkers brew the perfect cup of tea and keep it hot while they drink it.
Most teas require different temperatures and times to brew the perfect cup, so by combining technology and design, Teplo guides you through the process using an app.
You simply tell the app the type of tea you’re making, and pour in the hot water. It will then heat the water to the optimal temperature, telling you when to place the tea in for brewing.
When the tea is brewed, the app will tell you when it is done. It will also keep your tea at your preferred temperature for up to 4 hours, perfect for slow tea drinkers.
You can learn more about Teplo, here, or via their Kickstarter campaign, here.
