The Dipper - a tea brewing robot

myminifactory

If you've ever attempted to brew yourself green tea at 6am (or really, anytime), you're familiar with the challenge of setting a timer for three minutes, then waiting twenty minutes before brewing another cup, only to find yourself dozing off from the first one. So I set out to solve this problem. I'm introducing the Tea Dipper or Brewer, still weighing my options for a name. As far as I can tell, it's the first of its kind. Design-wise, it lacks a professional touch, which isn't something I'm capable of providing, but I put in my best effort nonetheless.
