Pyali, the cup that keeps your drink hot, to your temperature, for your taste!

All of us who have an affinity for tea or coffee know the basic problem when we drink it. Our drink gets cold so fast! We make our drink with such care, with a certain amount of grounded coffee or chai patti and a specific amount of sugar, so that we will get a drink for our taste, yet 5 mins later when it goes cold, we just shrug and drink it anyway because that has been the natural order of things since the first time we had it. Well not anymore.

A new cup is in the market called Pyali. This cup keeps your coffee or tea hot to whatever temperature you prefer. You just set the temperature you love and she will keep the drink at your temperature to your last sip no matter the time taken to drink it.

Pyali is a simple ceramic mug, just like your coffee mug. The difference is it is accompanied by a coaster which perfectly partners with its operation.

Pyali is in its initial setup phase, with a small team working day-in-day-out to develop the product and bring it to us. Pyali has been shortlisted among the top 38 most innovative product based startups in India in an on-going event organized by Catapoolt. This helps the team to see how the public’s reaction is to the product as it enters the market and also get them the funds for their future plans. The team has already gathered more than 1 Lakh Rupees already. Currently all 38 startups are competing among themselves in the penultimate round of the event to raise crowd funds. 15 startups who will raise the maximum fund by the end of June will get an opportunity to pitch their ideas in front of the investors. Being one of the very few product based startups in India and being one of the members of the leader board of the on-going Crowdfunding round, Pyali caught our eye. Here, we bring you some exclusive insight about what Pyali is all about.

Pyali is developed by 4 engineers who fell in love with coffee & tea in college, particularly how much coffee/tea had helped them during the last day exam cram-up. Remembering those good times the four friends came together to start this company.
After taking a year to develop the technology, filing a patent for it, the team has launched the product, hoping fellow caffeine addicts will appreciate it.

Team Pyali
As any hot beverage consumer knows, reheating a drink often causes deterioration in taste, luckily pyali’s team tells us that when our coffee or tea is getting cold at the same time it is also getting oxidized which results in deterioration of taste but with pyali you won’t experience it again because pyali always keeps your drink hot continuously which limits oxidation of your coffee or tea and you get to drink it always fresh “We researched about many cup warmers in market, what differentiates pyali from others is its ability to control the desired temperature and to keep your drink at that exact temperature till your last sip”.

The technology developed by them doesn’t just stop at heating coffee or tea but they want to redefine our whole eating and drinking experience.

Their next product is designated “The Beer Mug” which will keep your drink cold to your preferred temperature, so no more complaining to the bartender that your beer isn’t cold anymore, or ordering more ice for your drink. The pyali team already has prototypes ready for the “Beer Mug” but just like any budding hardware start up is facing financial problems regarding the moulds and custom hardware needed for such an innovative product. The team firmly believes that the crowdfunding and the attention they will get from the campaign will be something for their future investors to consider, which will help the team get these much needed products to us, the users, faster.

They have a vision where our table is the digitally equipped to heat our meals and keep them hot until we finish them, which in term will bring a whole new segment of products in the market of Digital Kitchenware.
