The $10,000 Beer Tap That Became an Operating System for Every Pour

Jose Hevia spent about $10,000 putting self-pour beer on a restaurant table. The real business appeared later: software that can identify a drinker, price every ounce and tell an operator what is happening inside thousands of ordinary dispensers.

Porifera

Porifera builds forward osmosis membrane systems that concentrate beverages and treat wastewater without heat or pressure. Its proprietary PFO technology removes water from juices, coffee, beer and wine while preserving flavor, aroma and color - cutting energy use up to 80% versus conventional evaporators. In 2025 the company launched Draftfox, a beer concentration and Microkeg dispense system that shrinks a keg by 6x.
