Sasa Sestic and Professor Chahan in collaboration with The Coffee Excellence Centre ZHAW University of Science in Switzerland introduce the latest innovation from Nucleus Coffee Tools!
After 2 years of research, development and hard work - we welcome the Paragon. The research carried out has uncovered a never-before-seen brewing style that produces and retains 40% more aroma volatile compounds by the unique Extract Chilling Technique. The technique works by capturing those volatile aroma compounds with the speciality designed Paragon Chilling Rock.
Size, shape and material have all been careful considerations in curating this design, which allows the coffee to be dispersed over the rock in a thin layer, capturing volatile aromas without compromising your hot coffee. Made from lightweight aluminum, and designed with the help of industrial designers, the unit is guaranteed to be both functional and durable. The Paragon Chilling Rock is made from food-grade, 304 stainless steel with a titanium coating for durability. The core of the Rock is filled with a gel-based liquid. This construction increases the mass of the Rock, which, compared with hollow, or water filled cores, increases its chill effect.
The Paragon features three tiers:
The top tier of the stand allows you to customise your Paragon with your favourite brewing device! Simply add your favourite V60 or other pourover brewer and a paper filter onto the top tier.
The middle tier has been designed to hold the unique and mesmerising Paragon Chilling Rock. Remove the Rock from your freezer and place it in the holder on the second tier.
The final tier is a small drip tray, which catches any drips from the Rock or the brewer once your brew is complete, making clean-up simple and minimal.
Each tier is completely adjustable so you can use your favourite brewing devices and vessels, no matter their size, and swing them easily to the side once you have completed brewing. The vertical pole features clear markings so you can record adjustments so you can easily repeat your favourite recipes. Underneath the drip try, you can place your favourite server on the base of the Paragon stand, which sits on your brewing scales.
