The details
The Baby Hardtank runs on a normal power point, with a filtered water line recommended for daily use. Treat the water as you already do for espresso.
Hardtank’s patented accelerated cold extraction is based on recirculation. Water is pushed through the extraction basket continuously, so the coffee is always agitated. The basket design gives a very clean brew without extra filtration.
Up to 4 litres of cold brew coffee, or up to 5 litres of tea and infusions, in under 45 minutes. Tea takes 15 to 30 minutes.
Up to 300 serves of 200 ml a day. If you need more, the Hardtank 20 makes up to 1,250.
A standard power point, and a filtered water line at 0.2 to 0.4 MPa is recommended for daily use. It uses a pumped drain. For events or sites without plumbing, it can be filled by hand.
340 x 341 x 490 mm (D x W x H), so it sits on the bench beside your espresso machine.
No. Hardtank machines brew without single-use filters, which cuts waste and ongoing costs.
Every Hardtank has automatic cleaning and sanitation programmes, so there is no manual scrubbing.
Cold brew coffee, tea, cascara, herbal infusions and cocktails. You can infuse spirits up to 60% ABV. Use lower sugar spirits, as thick liquids can damage the machine.
The Baby Hardtank has no tap. To pour nitro and still cold brew, pair it with a Hardtap, which makes its own nitrogen from the air.
Until Monday 30 November, 11:59pm AEST. From 1 December the Baby Hardtank goes back to $10,490.
