## Abstract

Disclosed are systems, devices and methods for providing a beverage brewing and analyte tracking portable platform. In some embodiments of the disclosed portable beverage brewing and analyte tracking technology, an intelligent beverage management system includes a portable brewing device in communication with a user's mobile device (e.g., smartphone, smartwatch, etc.) for monitoring and controlling consumption and metabolism of caffeine and other compounds from beverages consumed using the portable brewing device and/or other beverages logged by the user. The intelligent beverage management system includes a cloud-based data processing system in communication with the mobile device and/or portable brewing device to receive, process and/or store data associated with brewing of the beverage and data associated with the monitoring of consumption of the beverage and/or certain beverage constituents.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A portable beverage brewing device, comprising:
a container body having an interior chamber to contain a fluid;
a brewing canister assembly positioned in the interior chamber and including (i) at least one component operable to move between a closed position and an open position, the open position providing at least one hole between an exterior and an interior of the brewing canister assembly, and (ii) an actuator configured to modulate movement of the at least one component between the open position and the closed position, such that the fluid is able to flow in and out of the brewing canister assembly when in the open position and is unable to flow in and out of the brewing canister assembly when in the closed position, wherein the brewing canister assembly is operable to contain a brewing material in the interior of the brewing canister assembly and regulate fluid flow in and out of the brewing canister assembly to brew the brewing material;
one or more modular units to regulate or monitor one or more parameters associated with a beverage to be brewed by the portable beverage brewing device, wherein the one or more modular units includes a heating unit to modulate heating of the fluid, an analyte sensor to measure a concentration or an amount of a constituent of the beverage within the portable beverage brewing device, and a flow sensor to detect fluid flow of the beverage from the portable beverage brewing device; and
a data processing unit, including a processor and a memory comprising instructions executable by the processor, configured to process data and produce one or more commands to the actuator of the brewing canister assembly and the one or more modular units of the portable beverage brewing device, the data processing unit configured to wirelessly communicate health data associated with a user of the portable beverage brewing device with a software application program product resident on a mobile device, wherein the health data includes one or more of a heart rate level, a movement level, a blood oxygen level, a blood pressure measurement, an electrophysiological measurement, a glucose level, an ATP level, an electrolyte level, a body temperature measurement, a transpiration activity level, a respiratory activity level, a pain event and level, or sleep information, wherein the software application program product comprises a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having instructions, which when executed by a processing unit of the mobile device, cause the mobile device to process data detected by the flow sensor and the analyte sensor to determine a beverage constituent parameter including one or more of an amount, a concentration or a volume of a constituent of the beverage dispensed from the portable beverage brewing device, wherein the data processing unit is further configured to process the beverage constituent parameter and the health data to determine a quantitative value associated with an effect of consumption of the constituent of the fluid beverage.
