About Capsule Tea Machine Dispenser
Capsule Tea Machine is a tea brewing appliance for home and office use. Ten tea capsule types are available, and the selected capsule is placed in the cover at the top. An internal recognition component identifies the tea leaves and applies a suitable brewing method, so a cup of tea is ready in fifty seconds. Double-layer pressurized brewing simulates the two-stage manual process of Chinese tea making. A high-temperature steam system cleans the inner space. The form recalls the compact outline of ancient Chinese blue tile windows.

- Production Technology
- The noise-canceling structure and noiseless parts ensure quiet operation. Its self-developed high-temperature self-cleaning technology guarantees a clean and germ-free inner space by high-temperature steam, which is safe and convenient.

And its power dissipation lowers by 15%, which is more environmentally friendly.
- Design Challenge

- Research
- Xiaoguan Cha helps make the tea superior and promote the traditional tea industry. As a large producer of tea leaves, China has numerous tea companies and tea stores of various scales, the quality of which is uneven. Xiaoguan Cha cooperates with tea-making masters and sets product standards in accordance with the requirements of high grade tea leaves posed by traditional tea-making techniques, and its own tea-making skills and cumulative experience. Meanwhile, we watch out the production process very carefully to ensure the high quality of our products.
- Inspiration
- This equipment provides the unique and professional tea-making experience at home and office.
