ABOUT THE PROJECT
Reis wanted to create a portable and easy to use pod style coffee maker for adventurous campers looking to live more sustainably. Their product, the Ibbu ravel coffee maker, is a fresh new take for coffee on the go. It takes the ease of a pod style coffee maker and fits into a frame perfect for adventurous individuals living a nomadic lifestyle. This three part system includes the main body that brews your coffee using a reusable pod, a storage compartment to refill that pod, and an insulated cup for your freshly brewed coffee. Ibbu is an all-in-one solution that brews coffee from start to finish in the most convenient and sustainable manner. Its simple shape makes it perfect for travel and will fit into any standard size cupholder in your vehicle. A robust process coupled with high quality design and materials creates an easy coffee making experience anywhere.
