Aroma volatile compounds play a key role in our perception of flavour. Typically, they evaporate, filling the air with the scent of coffee we know and love.
To keep more flavor in the cup, we’ve partnered with Zurich University to create the Paragon, a tool which dramatically increases retention rates and maximizes the potential of the brewing process.
The Paragon’s patented design utilises innovative extract chilling technology to elevate your brewing experience.
Resulting from years of extensive research, the tool has been scientfically proven to capture and express up to 40% more key aroma volatile molecules than an identical brew without chilling – flavor that would otherwise be lost to the environment.
The 30mm diameter chilling rock size is smaller than our Paragon Filter rocks and has been designed to suit espresso coffee with extra rocks available to order too.
– Material Food-grade 304 stainless steel with a titanium coating, built for the repeated freeze-and-use cycles of a daily brewing practice.
– Form Spherical, by design. The shape maximizes surface area contact with the brew stream for even, consistent chilling across the full extraction.
– Core A high-density liquid gel fill that reaches colder temperatures, holds them longer, and freezes faster than hollow or water-filled alternatives.

Colors of actual products might show up slightly different than in the product photos. This is due to the various settings of monitors. Every monitor or mobile display has a different capability to display colors, and every individual may see these colors differently. In addition, lighting conditions at the time the photo was taken can also affect an image's color.
Products that have a shimmering coating will also show differently under different lighting setup. Colors might appear different even under a fluorescent light or a warmer shade bulb.
