About Selftea 자동 차 추출기

셀프티(Selftea)는 터키식 차를 우려내기 위해 설계된 자동 차 추출기입니다. 이중 챔버 시스템은 2.5리터 물탱크와 1.5리터 찻주전자를 통해 전통적인 이중 주전자 방식을 그대로 재현합니다. 슬라이딩 메커니즘이 끓는 물을 찻주전자로 옮겨 수작업 없이 우려냄이 이루어집니다. 온도 제어와 자동 우림 사이클이 추출 시간을 관리하며, 물의 유량을 조절하여 차의 농도를 변경할 수 있습니다. 내구성과 안전성을 위해 스테인리스 스틸과 내열 유리가 사용되었습니다. 컴팩트한 본체의 크기는 250 x 210 x 363밀리미터입니다.

Production Technology
The Automatic Turkish Tea Maker was designed through a user centered approach, focusing on preserving the authenticity of traditional brewing while integrating modern automation. Extensive research on tea making rituals shaped the ergonomics and functionality. The device incorporates high quality stainless steel and heat resistant glass, ensuring durability and safety. Advanced temperature control and infusion techniques were implemented to replicate the precise steeping process of Turkish tea.
Design Challenge
The main creative challenge was automating Turkish tea-making while preserving its authenticity. Traditional methods require precise control over steeping time, temperature, and tea water ratio, which are difficult to replicate mechanically. Socially, tea is a cultural ritual, making user acceptance crucial. Externally, technological limitations, material selection, and production feasibility posed challenges. Through rigorous R&D, smart automation, and material innovation, these obstacles were successfully overcome.
Research
Our process began with field research, user studies, and R&D testing, ensuring a deep understanding of traditional Turkish tea making and user expectations. The design journey was highly iterative, involving numerous sketches, prototypes, and extensive team discussions. Through collaboration and continuous refinement, we transformed insights into a functional, user friendly product that seamlessly integrates tradition with modern automation. This project is a true team effort, shaped by research and innovation.
Inspiration
The Automatic Turkish Tea Maker is an innovative gadget designed to simplify a lot of the hard work
required by the traditional method of brewing with ease and speed. It automates the entire process
to give the real Turkish tea without any kind of manual effort.
Project Duration
The project began in 2022 in Istanbul and was completed in January 2025. Following extensive research, prototyping, and user testing, the final design successfully integrates automation with the traditional Turkish tea brewing method. The product is now prepared for mass production and is expected to be introduced to the market soon, offering an innovative and effortless tea-making experience.
Operation Flow
Using the Automatic Turkish Tea Maker is effortless. Simply add water and tea leaves, press a button, and let the machine handle the rest. It mimics the traditional double teapot method, automatically adjusting heat and steeping time for the perfect brew. The device ensures consistent flavor every time, without the need for manual control. By eliminating guesswork and effort, it makes authentic Turkish tea accessible to everyone, delivering a rich and smooth taste with ease.
