LouJi™ for cafés

You weigh your coffee to a tenth of a gram.
Your matcha gets a spoon.

Matcha is now the most expensive powder on your bar, and the only one nobody weighs. Every hand scoop swings by a gram or more, shift after shift. LouJi™ doses 4.0 g exactly, sifted through the Tamis™, every shot, any barista.

The scoop leak

What the spoon costs you, per year.

Assumes 1 g of average over-scoop per drink, a conservative figure for hand-scooping ultra-fine powder. LouJi™ doses 4.0 g exactly, so the leak goes to zero.

2026 reality

Matcha changed. The process behind the counter didn't.

Wholesale matcha prices have roughly doubled since 2023 after Japan's harvest shock, and allocations are tight: new accounts wait weeks for supply. When the powder cost that much less, an easy scoop was a rounding error. Today it is the biggest silent leak on the bar.

Dosed like espresso

Espresso got precision fifty years ago. Matcha gets it now.

No serious bar lets a barista eyeball espresso, yet the most expensive powder in the building is dosed by feel. LouJi™ ends that: a measured 4.0 g passes the Tamis™ 150-micron mesh and pours as a smooth shot in about ten seconds. The hundredth drink tastes exactly like the first, and your menu finally means the same thing all day.

  • Exact dose, every shot. No heaped scoops, no light ones, no drift.
  • Sifted before water. Every clump broken by the Tamis™, never in the cup.
  • ~10 second shots. Matcha stops being the slowest drink on the menu.
  • Auto-cleaning between serves. Built for all-day service.
Your powder, your margin

Keep your supplier. Or try ours.

LouJi™ is an open powder platform: no pods, no proprietary refills, no lock-in. Load the matcha your café already serves and keep every euro of the margin. And if you want supply that is tuned for the machine, our first-harvest Japanese ceremonial matcha is lab-tested every batch and matched to the Tamis™.

The October pilot

Ten counters. First in line.

We are selecting ten cafés for the LouJi™ launch pilot this October: a Pro Model on your bar, our matcha or yours, and the numbers measured on your counter, not in a brochure. Pilot cafés ship first and lock founder terms.

Application received. We answer every one ourselves, usually within a day.

Ten spots, café operators only. No payment, no commitment: just your counter and your numbers.
