Tea boilers are professional water heating equipment, indispensable in the HoReCa sector of Uzbekistan, where demand for high-quality hot beverages is growing in cafes, restaurants, and hotels, and tea is at a peak. They often provide a stable temperature for brewing tea, coffee, and other beverages, minimizing wait times and increasing efficiency . Restaurants often feature Russian samovars and Turkish teapots, which also heat water for tea. A tea boiler is a modern, efficient solution for HoReCa. In the local market, with its emphasis on imports from Europe and Asia, these devices are available starting from 300,000 soums and are designed for heavy-duty use.
Types of tea boilers
Tea boilers are available in two types: pour-in and flow-through (with the ability to connect to a water supply).
Instantaneous water heaters, such as the Hurakan 10L, heat water instantly with touch-sensitive temperature control and double-walled stainless steel for safety. Storage models ( fill-in models) , such as the MARCO Ecoboiler UC 10 or UC 45, maintain a constant volume of hot water (up to 45L), ideal for peak hours in bars and restaurants. Compact self-service options are popular in Uzbekistan, including dispensers from local suppliers in Tashkent, priced from 900,000 soums .
Functionality and capabilities
Modern boilers feature electronic displays, precise temperature control (from 80–100°C for tea), automatic shut-off, and a flow rate of up to 100 liters per hour, preventing overboiling and saving energy. The MARCO Ecosmart UC 4 models allow you to customize settings for different beverages, while the Julius Meinl sells 10-liter instantaneous water heaters with heat exchangers for tea and coffee, ready to be connected to the water supply. The hygienic food-grade stainless steel design makes cleaning easy, and the stands provide mobility for catering .
Why is it important to install a water filter?
Water quality is a crucial factor in achieving the perfect tea and coffee. Soft and pure water allows hot drinks to fully develop their flavors, creating a unique experience that makes you want to return again and again. Important water quality parameters include the amount of minerals and salts (TDS). The ideal TDS for coffee and tea is 100 TDS. For tea, a TDS of 20 TDS is even better.
In addition to taste, the quality of the water used affects the lifespan of coffee and tea equipment. In this case, using hard water causes a hard mineral deposit to form on the heaters and boiler walls, which negatively impacts boiler performance and the taste of beverages. Using purified water in boilers ensures the proper operation of tea equipment. As a result, your guests receive exceptional hot drinks prepared in minimal time.

Benefits for HoReCa
In cafes and hotels across Uzbekistan, boilers reduce staff workload, speeding up service by 30–50% thanks to reliable heating without downtime. They improve the quality of tea, preserving the aroma of premium blends, and comply with sanitary standards, minimizing the risk of burns thanks to insulation. Energy efficiency reduces utility bills by up to 20% , and their compact dimensions (from 190 x 240 x 630 mm) fit even the smallest kitchens in Tashkent establishments.
Market in Uzbekistan
The market offers boilers on online platforms (from 313,702 soums ) and from suppliers (from 1.2 million soums ), with imports from Russia, China, and Europe. MARCO and local dispensers in Tashkent are popular. For HoReCa, we recommend models with a 380V power supply and 6 kW capacity for restaurants, with nationwide delivery. Julius Meinl.uz can expand its range with tea boilers for the full HoReCa cycle, including service.
