The system is a compact, pod-based countertop appliance that prepares one fresh dose of Kwatha on demand for any formulation, for use at home or in Ayurvedic clinics. Each single-dose pod contains the standardized coarse powder (yavaku?a c?r?a) of one formulation and serves as the brew-bag, so the decoction stays clear and the spent powder is removed with the pod; a different formulation is handled simply by changing the pod. To prepare a dose, the user adds water and inserts a pod; the appliance soaks the powder, boils it at a controlled mild temperature (~85–90 °C), reduces the liquid to one-fourth, filters it, and dispenses a single fresh, warm decoction, ready to drink. The water volume, boil profile and dose follow the formulation’s AFI/API specification encoded on the pod, and the ap
