OREA V4 Narrow Brewer - PRE-ORDER

Not just a coffee maker, a system

The V4 is much more than a coffee maker. It's a system that currently supports eight brewing devices in two compact packages. A system that can be developed over time.

0 Lies

Everything in this system has been thoroughly tested. If one element is part of the system, it means it was significantly different from another and deserved a place in it.

1 System

The V4 uses a modular system to connect and disconnect different bases. The connection point is placed high enough on the coffee maker to allow for significant changes to the design of the bases. This isn't modularity for modularity's sake; you don't tweak minor things. Rather, it's a system that allows for big changes with small parts. It wasn't easy to design, and many will copy these ideas, but they will never be as good as the originals.

2 Geometries

For the V3 coffee maker, two sizes were launched: 155 and 185. For the V4, they focused on two geometries: narrow and wide. Both are sized "Large/185." For now, we're ruling out small coffee makers, as we prefer the flexibility of a slightly larger body with the same geometry. The flow rates and cup profiles of the two geometries are very different; we think you'll love exploring them.

73° Narrow: Classic geometry. Although the coffee maker looks slightly different on the outside, the Narrow V4 has the same internal geometry as the V3 and V2.

65° Wide: A new geometry. Narrower than most, but wider than the classic. It was ideal for creating a difference without becoming a slow coffee maker. It's a width we're comfortable with and provides a unique profile.

3 Flat Bottoms in Each Geometry

Each geometry has 3 different flat bottoms. You'll notice they're very similar to all the other brewers they've released, and it's no coincidence.

Classic: A V3 MK2 bottom on the V4, for equivalent performance and flavor profile. This bottom provides some restriction while keeping the bed perfectly flat. A vintage approach, appreciated worldwide.

Open: The same design as our Glass Series OPEN brewer, but with the V4 plastic body, giving it a different profile. This bottom centers the flow and produces a completely different flavor profile, ideal for exploring.

Fast: This design incorporates all the ideas we explored in the new Big Boy Brewer into the V4 system. A clog-free design, and arguably the fastest, offers new options for those who want to grind more precisely, pour more, or experiment with different paper types.

4 Coffee Makers in 1

The V4 includes 4 distinct bases that direct the water flow in unique ways. Each features a different set of touch and outlet points, designed to manipulate the water flow and enhance the different characteristics of the same coffee. All are efficient, fast, and consistent, but differ in the qualities they enhance.

AWARD-WINNING

The V4 won the European Product Design Award in 2023, being chosen as the winning design in the Home, Tea, and Coffee Machine category. They won another award in 2024 with the new Z1 coffee maker.

Modular without the modular feel

When they took on the challenge of creating a modular coffee maker, they didn't want it to feel modular. Sometimes modular products feel too... modular. They didn't want it to feel like a gadget. Every time you set it up, it looks and feels like a regular coffee maker—it's a simple, intuitive way to create a coffee machine. There's no sense of modularity. If you prefer to use a base most of the time, you'll never think of the coffee maker as a modular object, but rather as that specific coffee maker. All the connection points are sturdy threads that interlock with connections hidden by the base. Each combination feels amazing on its own, and this was so important to us that it's hard to convey with text alone. The V4 won't feel modular; it will feel like a solid coffee maker with options when you need them.
