How LouJi™ works, step by step

01Hopper

Loose powder in.

No capsules. The hopper is closed and opaque, so light stays off the powder.

02Dosing · Patent pending

The same dose, every time.

The machine sets the dose, not a scoop. The same amount of matcha in every cup.

03Sifting · Patent pending

No clumps.

Every dose passes through the Tamis™ mesh. Clumps are gone before any water arrives.

04Mixing

Mixed at 80°C.

Hot water meets the sifted dose. 80°C / 175°F, never boiling.

05Shot

A barista-level shot.

Smooth and ready in about thirty seconds, for the latte or the iced drink.

Powder in. Shot out.

The powder-to-shot machine.

One machine, every fine powder

Matcha first. Every powder next.

LouJi™ doses, sifts and mixes fine powders. Matcha is the first. The next powders are tested one by one before release.

What goes wrong with matcha on a busy bar.

Batched hours ahead

Whisked into a bottle at open, poured until close. The drink fades all day.

The dose swings

A hand scoop moves by about a gram either way.

Heavy scoops cost money

Powder that goes into the cup by mistake is powder you paid for and never sold.

Clumps

Water poured on unsifted matcha leaves lumps in the drink.

Water too hot

Boiling water makes matcha bitter. It wants about 80°C.

A different drink per barista

Every hand makes it a little differently.

LouJi™ doses, sifts and mixes each shot to order, at about 80°C, in about 30 seconds.

LouJi™ Pro on a café counter, next to the espresso machine

Two ways to get the LouJi™ Pro.

€1,990 with the Matcha Plan

€660 every 4 weeks: the machine, 3 kg of matcha and a fresh Tamis™ cartridge. Yours in under 2 years. About €0.91 a shot.

€2,990 outright

The machine on its own. Use your own matcha.

€550 to reserve, either way. Nothing more until your machine ships. Prices exclude VAT, added at checkout where it applies: none outside the EU, none for businesses in another EU country with a valid VAT number.

Why LouJi™ exists

Cafés batch matcha in a squeeze bottle because they have no choice.

No bar pulls the day's espresso at open and pours it until close. Matcha gets exactly that, because whisking to order takes a minute and a half and the queue will not wait. So the bar whisks a squeeze bottle, shakes it before every pour and tips out the rest at close. The queue moves. The drink gets worse every hour.

The squeeze bottle, across one shift

A squeeze bottle of matcha mixed in advance

The colour dulls, the taste flattens, the powder sinks. The last of it is poured away.

LouJi™, across the same shift

A fresh matcha shot poured into iced milk

Dosed, sifted and pulled fresh for every order. The same shot at eight, at noon and at five.

It oxidises

Matcha is ground leaf. Once it meets water and air, the green starts to break down. Bright jade at open, olive by the afternoon.

It loses its top notes

The sweet, fresh notes go first. What is left tastes flatter and more bitter. The last pour of the day is not the first.

It settles

Matcha does not dissolve. Left standing, the powder sinks. Every pour needs a shake, and the dose still drifts from the first squeeze to the last.

It dies at close

What is left in the bottle is tipped away. Powder bought, whisked and never sold, every single day.

LouJi™ prepares each shot fresh, to order, in about thirty seconds. No batch waits in a bottle, so there is no batch to pour away at close.

While LouJi™ pulls the shot, the barista steams the milk or takes the next order. The same shot all through the queue.

Good to know.

Powder, always. LouJi™ takes loose powder through the Tamis™. No capsules, no proprietary refills. Bought outright, it runs the compatible powder you choose.

Matcha first, because it is the hardest: it clumps, it settles and it burns. Next: collagen, protein, cacao, mushroom powders such as lion's mane and cordyceps, turmeric and beetroot. Each one is tested before release.

Coffee machines are built for ground beans and a tamped puck. Fine powder clumps instead of packing. LouJi™ is built around the powder: dose, sift, then water.

Matcha Plan: €550 to reserve, then €660 every 4 weeks for the machine, 3 kg of matcha and a fresh Tamis™ cartridge. In under 2 years the machine is yours. More kilos in the box, lower price per shot.

Outright: €2,990 for the machine, with Tamis™ Care at €39 every 4 weeks. €550 to reserve, either way.

A paid 30-day pilot to try it first. All prices exclude VAT. See the pricing

It is a powder-to-shot machine. Matcha is the first powder it is made for: it doses, sifts and mixes every shot. Compare the ways to make matcha

A squeeze bottle keeps the queue moving, but the drink changes as it stands: it oxidises, it settles, and the rest is tipped away at close. LouJi™ keeps the speed and pulls every shot fresh. See what one shift does to a squeeze bottle

Yes, if you buy the machine outright: keep your supplier. The hopper takes loose powder, not capsules. Or take the Matcha Plan: our matcha, LouJi™ 530nm, every 4 weeks, and the machine paid off on the same bill in under 2 years. Both run on the same Tamis™ cartridge. Matcha first, every powder next.

LouJi™ 530nm: one Japanese matcha for every drink. First harvest, Aichi, ceremonial grade. Every batch tested for heavy metals by an independent laboratory before it ships. See the matcha

The powder path stays dry until the last stage: the dose is measured and sifted before any water arrives. The wet path is designed to rinse with hot water after every shot, so residue is cleared between orders. The drip tray and the Tamis™ cartridge come out by hand, no tools, and the 2.8 L water tank refills from the top without being lifted.

The Tamis™ is the replaceable sifting cartridge every dose passes through before water: a stainless-steel mesh. It is a consumable: after 4 weeks of service it is swapped for a fresh one, so the sift stays consistent. That is why every LouJi™ Pro comes with Tamis™ Care: a fresh cartridge every 4 weeks, and the used one comes back to us. Included in the Matcha Plan, €39 every 4 weeks on an outright purchase. Swapped, never scrubbed. Very busy bars may need more; we quote those.

In order of reservation and signature. Certified LouJi™ Pro units ship from Q3 2027. Before that, demo units go to private demonstrations from November, Paris first, then Los Angeles in December: dosing, consistency and workflow tests, and nothing they make is served or consumed. Reserve with €550 to take your place in line; it is refunded if you cancel before your machine ships.
