Is the coffee filter part included with any level of please, or only as an add-on later?

All levels of pledges come with the Tea Smart Brewer. The coffee filter is an add-on that’s available after the campaign for $9.95

How does it stop the tea from over-steeping?

Great question! The Smart-Brewer is designed with a patented filter system. It only allows water through where you push it down to lock. In this way, once it’s in place tea will no longer be in contact with the liquid.

It all sounds very scientific �, and it works amazing.

So what is the difference between the coffee filter that is an add on or the one I think it comes with?

Tea and coffee work differently. One is a leaf; another is grinder hard beans. They take up different space and work individually in the infusion. So to get the best out of your coffee, we came up with a design that gives you a smooth a rounded cup with minimum coffee mud.

Could the Smart-Brewer be lifted up and more water added for re-steeping of the same leaves?

This is one of the best benefits for enjoying your tea in a Recharge! Because the Smart-Brewer stops infusion, once you finish the first cup, most tea types are flavorful enough for a 2nd steep 

BackerKit FAQ

What is BackerKit?

BackerKit is a service that crowdfunded project creators use to keep track of hundreds to tens of thousands of backers—from shipping details, pledge levels, preferences and quantities, whether they have paid or had their card declined, special notes, and everything in between!

The BackerKit software and support team is independent from the campaign’s project team—BackerKit does not handle the actual reward shipping. For more information about the preparation or delivery status of your rewards, please check the project's updates page.

How does BackerKit work?

After the campaign ends, the project creator will send you an email with a unique link to your survey. You can check out a walkthrough of the process here.

I never received my invitation. How do I complete the survey?

The most common reasons for not receiving a survey email is that you may be checking an email inbox different from the email address you used to sign up with Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account, or it may be caught in your spam filter.

Confirm that the email address you are searching matches the email address tied to your Kickstarter, Indiegogo, or Tilt Pro account. If that doesn’t work, then try checking your spam, junk or promotions folders. You can also search for "backerkit” in your inbox.

To resend the survey to yourself, visit the project page and input the email address associated with your Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account.

How do I update my shipping address?

BackerKit allows you to update your shipping address until the shipping addresses are locked by the project creator. To update your address, go back to your BackerKit survey by inputting your email here.

When will my order be shipped, charged or locked?

That is handled directly by the project creator. BackerKit functions independently of the project itself, so we do not have control of their physical shipping timeline. If you want to check on the project’s status, we recommend reading over the project's updates page.

I completed the survey, but haven't received my rewards yet. When will they arrive?

As BackerKit does not actually handle any rewards or shipping, the best way to stay updated on the shipping timeline would be to check out the project's updates page.
