Our Story

Brewave was created by a father-and-son engineering team united by their passion for coffee.

Over the course of five years, we transformed the idea from concept to market-ready innovation.

The father envisioned the product, while the son dedicated countless hours outside his university studies to developing hundreds of prototypes—ultimately pioneering a compostable, microwave-based coffee brewing method.

Despite numerous challenges, we bootstrapped the company and built a fully engineered factory to bring Brewave to life, ensuring we can deliver exceptional coffee directly into your hands.

7 Years to Bring a Coffee to You!

Bryce and Hunter spent 3 years designing prototypes 4 years building the factory to make Brewave possible. Overcoming many design challenges along the way. The first factory was built in Calgary AB, Canada.

Why I Built Brewave

I am a big coffee drinker, and making a coffee in the microwave seemed like a challenging yet feasible engineering project. I made 100's of prototypes purely out of the love of inventing things. In retrospect the prototypes were the easy part. The hardest part was building the factory to mass produce Brewave.

Why I Built Brewave

I wanted a high quality cup of coffee in the afternoon but didn't want to see an entire pot of perculator coffee go to waste. I wasn't a fan of pod coffee. There had to be a way of making a cup of coffee in the microwave equivalent to the quality of perculator coffee. The final design became the Brewave single serve microwave sachet.
