How to Make Coffee Shop Favorites in Your Dorm with Bruvi


College students are no strangers to caffeine. But let’s face it, daily coffee shop runs get expensive, especially when you’re trying to balance a budget and a class schedule.

That’s where Bruvi steps in: a compact, stylish, and powerful single serve coffee maker that turns your dorm into your personal café.

  • One Brewer, Many Drinks: Enjoy 7+ different beverages including coffee, espresso, Americanos, matcha, cold brew, and more.

  • Easy Auto Delivery: Never run out of your favorites. Set your schedule and save 15% on every box.


DIY Coffee Shop Menu: Dorm Edition

You don’t need a barista certification to make café-level drinks in your dorm. Here are easy recipes you can create with Bruvi’s premium B-Pods, all in under 2 minutes.

1. Iced Matcha Latte

Skip the sugary powdered stuff.

  • Brew a matcha pod directly over ice
  • Add almond, oat, or dairy milk
  • Optional: Stir in honey or vanilla extract

Tip: Froth your milk with a mini frother for café-style foam.

2. Classic Iced Coffee

Cool, bold, and refreshing.

  • Use a medium or dark roast B-Pod
  • Brew over ice
  • Customize with creamer or syrup

Freeze leftover coffee into cubes for a stronger chill.

3. Vanilla Latte

The go-to comfort drink, now dorm-approved.

  • Brew a Bruvi espresso pod
  • Froth milk
  • Add a splash of vanilla syrup

4. Caramel Cold Foam Brew

A Starbucks dupe you’ll actually want every day.

  • Brew any Bruvi coffee pod on iced setting
  • Mix milk and caramel syrup and froth separately
  • Spoon the foam on top

5. Mocha Espresso

Because sometimes you need chocolate and coffee.

  • Brew espresso directly over chocolate syrup
  • Stir and top with milk or whipped cream

Better Than the Campus Café

Here’s the thing: Bruvi doesn’t just save you money. It saves time, space, and stress.
