Tiger Corporation (President: Yoshisato Kikuchi, Headquarters: Kadoma City, Osaka), a world leader in thermal control technology, will release the Siphonysta, a new coffee maker on February 21 (Tue), 2023. It automates the extraction of siphon coffee, resulting in coffee that looks and tastes delightful.

An increasing number of consumers have a stronger preference for high-end products as they become willing to pay for what they recognize as added value in order to enrich their time at home during the COVID-19 pandemic. For this reason, there is a growing need for innovative home appliances with high added value. In addition, people are more likely to seek authentic tastes at home, and more and more people are personally exploring and enjoying ways to roast and brew coffee.

In response to these trends, we have developed the Siphonysta coffee maker, which automates the extraction process of siphon coffee, a type of coffee that has long been a favorite around the world. Siphon coffee is extracted by boiling water in a flask and changing the air pressure. In addition to its delightful taste, you can also enjoy the pleasant bubbling sound made during the beautiful extraction process in which coffee gradually accumulates in the cylinder. However, it is difficult to enjoy siphon coffee at home because of the many tools and steps required to perform the difficult extraction process, so it has always been a favorite at specialty cafes and coffee shops. The Siphonysta is an innovative coffee maker that automates the extraction of siphon coffee using the heat control technology we have cultivated at our company. With a beautiful brewing process that makes the coffee spurt out like a fountain, and its minimalist, modern product design, this product will provide you with a special cup of coffee and quality time.

The Siphonysta was launched in the US market in April 2022 through crowdfunding. We achieved 271% of our goal, and local coffee specialists appreciated the innovative design and exceptional taste.

In addition, the Siphonysta Ambassador Program will be launched to spread the word about the Siphonysta by recruiting roasteries, coffee shops, and cafes to serve as ambassadors.

Main features of Siphonysta

(1) An automatic siphon coffee system created by combining steam and heat control technologies

This exquisite product was created by making full use of the steam and heat control technologies that we have cultivated over many years. It instantly generates steam that evenly steeps all of the ground coffee, then uses an immersion method that differs from the typical drip method. This is a new method of extraction in which a pressure difference is generated between the top and bottom of the cylinder to decompress and filter the coffee. The result is a clear cup of coffee with the original aroma and flavor of beans brought out to the maximum.

(2) The Dual Temp Brewing Method, which brings out the luxurious flavors of specialty coffee beans

The Siphonysta is equipped with a Dual Temp function mode that switches the temperature during the extraction process to bring out the natural flavor of coffee beans. The resulting coffee has a rich and innovative taste that cannot be achieved with conventional extraction methods.

(3) A taste selection menu with 3 levels of flavor and 3 levels of strength, allowing you to enjoy 9 different combinations from the same beans

By simply pressing the flavor and strength selection key, the Siphonysta automatically adjusts the temperature, time, and the stirring level of the extraction process, delivering the flavor that you selected according to your mood.

Other features

Fascinating extraction—an extraction process that’s beautiful to watch and a refined, fountain-like design

The Siphonysta uses a transparent cylinder that enables a beautiful brewing process in which extracted coffee spouts like a fountain. Draining air from the upper cylinder creates a pressure difference between the upper and lower cylinders to filter and extract coffee. The distance between the cylinder and the pipe has been adjusted to make the coffee spout out as beautifully as possible. With its high quality finish and minimalist, modern product design, the Siphonysta has a special place in the industry as an innovative coffee machine that delivers not only great coffee, but also memorable moments.

The cylinder is dishwasher-safe and easy to clean

The cylinder is dishwasher-safe (except for some parts*), making cleaning easy.

* The lid, upper cylinder, scavenging pipe and lower cylinder are dishwasher-safe.

Enjoy brewing your coffee by pulling the lever by yourself

When you pull the lever, the brewed coffee is poured into the cup, allowing you to enjoy the same sensation you experience when making hand drip coffee.

Controlled heater

The Siphonysta is equipped with a controlled heater that uses state-of-the-art technology to quickly raise the temperature to the desired level.

The product was released first in the United States and received high praise.

The Siphonysta achieved its goal in the first 4 days of its US launch in April 2022 through a crowdfunding (Kickstarter) initiative. By the end, we achieved 271% of our goal, and local coffee specialists appreciated the innovative design and exceptional taste.

Turning coffee professionals into ambassadors with the launch of the Siphonysta Ambassador Program

We are launching an ambassador program to attract roasteries, coffee shops, cafes, and other stores to spread the word about the Siphonysta.

This is a new business model in which coffee establishments (roasteries, coffee shops, and cafes) are recruited as ambassadors who incorporate the Siphonysta into their business, and when customers purchase the device on the official Tiger Corporation website, a commission is paid to the establishment.

This is a new initiative that allows customers who visit cafes and other stores to see the Siphonysta. We will continue to update our website to introduce these cafes and other stores.
