Now Machine Brews Fresh Tea Of Your Choice, Taste

"Indians are compulsive tea drinkers, at home and in office. But the problem is that in most offices, coffee vending machines are used to make tea or coffee. These beverages taste awful, are unhygienic and cannot be customised for sweetness, strength or milk. All this will change with DTBU," Jain assured.

Currently, in the Mumbai market, with the inflationary trends, an ordinary "cutting chai' (half-cup tea) costs upwards of 6, and goes up to 16 for a good, tasty cup.

The company's executive director, Devendra Garg, added that while coffee-making has seen huge automation and continuous technological advancements, the delicate and personalised tea-brewing has remained a manual process.

"Now, the D'lecta Tea Brewing Unit will offer the connoisseurs their choice of tea minus the labour involved in the manual brewing, all at the press of a button," Garg smiled.

Besides the choice of tea - the classic Assam Tea, Masala Tea or Green Tea - it can also brew coffee, chocolate and hot soup, Jain said.

The machine, which draws water from an internal 20-litre tank, can dispense five varieties at a time - tea (with/without sugar), coffee, chocolate and soup at a time. Each of these containers, as also those for milk and sugar, can hold raw material for 400 cups.

The critical cleaning factor is also very convenient as it encompasses several hygiene features - it will prompt for a self-rinse if any selected option remains dormant for more than 15 minutes and also does an all-rinse at the day's end.
