So I started with the Yama, but thought it would be a fun project to try to make something from scratch. Had to turn to chem glassware, which is a little pricey but I think looks cool. I used a separatory funnel, Buchner funnel, and Florence flask.
Glassware ended up costing about $83, and I used the ring stand we had in the science lab at school.

Do you mean something like this?
I can't answer your question but if you mean that sort of thing that's a really neat design and I'm gonna need one.
I don't really understand the method you're using to make cold brew but most of these concentrates are made with a cold brew slow dripper (like a Toddy or a Yama tower) to get an extremely high concentration of coffee in the water. That's how they're able to use a 1:1 dilution ratio.
Been using the Yama one for over 5 years now. Great cold brew plus a great conversation piece.
I used to use this as a cheap version:

I want to get this

Otherwise you could get a Toddy:

An engineer would probably prefer a vacuum siphon coffee maker or a cold drip brewer. I wish I had a friend in college with one of those setups. Hell, I wish I had a friend now with one of those!

I’m looking at a Yama, I’ve never seen a shop that doesn’t use this one. But I was also thinking of making my own by scavenging pieces

Absolute best investment I've ever made:

Just get a beaker and have a glass worker add them if you cant find them else where. Or there is always a way to buy a pre-made system: http://www.amazon.com/Yama-Northwest-Glass-32-Ounce-Coffee/dp/B004EBUZ1A .
Drinking lapsang souchong from Red Blossom Tea; it's starting to grow on me more although I'll admit I definitely prefer later brews to the first brew.
No tea-specific gifts this year, which I'm OK with because I'm very picky. Someone who knows me well would usually just ask what I like/want (clearly I've had more than a handful of bad surprises, hah).
My favorite gift by far is a homemade version of this drip tower. I'll upload if I get around to taking pictures! I'm not really sure if I could use this for tea (this is for cold brew coffee, my favorite style), but I am SO happy witih it. Handmade thoughtful gifts are the best. :)

I've had my eye on one for some time. Can't quite justify it, though..
Remember that cold drip tower that was on Kickstarter a few years back and looked cool, but ended up being $600 retail? It was posted on this subreddit a few times. That one just used regular old standard lab glassware. The one in the picture is ~$300 and has custom glassware.
tl;dr you can build a decent cold drip tower for ~$75-100 using lab equipment.
Something like this
It's capable of making concentrate that you can cut with milk/water or just straight drinking strength coffee.
You could make a batch before opening and brew more as the day progresses based on the expected number of customers. It's really mesmerising to watch!
That cold brew science-looking experiment is the Yama and it's for sale on Amazon, as well as other outlets when you know the name. But amazon is easiest for me to link as I already looked it up. My local coffee shop uses ice water in the reservoir.
25 cup model for $479
6-8 cup model for $269
hmmm.... he COULD upgrade his grinder, a baratza virtuoso is a step up from his capresso infinity (that's what i think that is), especially when it comes to espresso making.
there are things like custom tamps that you can get and get their name on it? I'm not familiar with the breville machine so not sure if the tamps you get actually work on the breville one, sometimes they are smaller.
other cool things include a siphon coffee machine, you would want to get a butane burner for it, i'm not from america so I don't really know what people recommend of amazon lol but i'll link something for reference:

or a kyoto style drip tower, which is for making iced drip coffee which is great and this is also somethign I would NEVER get myself (price and all) but would be awesome to have but be aware of the practicality of size and where to put it lol, note: it takes 5-6 hours to drip a few cups haha:

btw, you are a great friend.
Perhaps a really cool science-lab-looking iced-tea maker like this one? Northwest Glass makes a much larger version (about 3-4 feet tall) that is very impressive in person and would be suitable for a tea cafe.
Does he like cold brew?

The aesthetics look really awesome. I've seen many dutch coffee devices being used in South Korea. Like this one from Amazon
https://www.amazon.com/Yama-Glass-Maker-Straight-Black/dp/B004EBUZ1A/ref=pd_sim_79_6?ie=UTF8&dpID=41tRrVDoWJL&dpSrc=sims&preST=_AC_UL160_SR160%2C160_&psc=1&refRID=D620MKJ5734WVNBTRF3Q
Most of them are big (which may be good for displays in coffee shops), and like you said, the openings allow dust and air to enter. I think that's why these dutch coffee tasted so acidic from being oxidized. Have you guys tested if your coffee is less acidic than regular dutch coffee since there's less oxidation?
As a Korean, I think one of the biggest up-sell is that it prevents "dust" from entering. Korea is currently suffering "micro dust" problem and they are obsessed with preventing dust in any possible way. The fact that this prevents dust and purifies water, it could be a huge up-sell there.
In the future, do you guys plan on making larger version for commercial use? Like at coffee shops? Will you guys ever export to Korea?
EDIT: Haha, I just realized this was being made in Korea after reading Amazon product page.
