How It Cooks
It Boils the Noodles. It Doesn't Soak Them.
Hot water alone only softens instant noodles. Studio pours the water, then brings the bowl itself to a rolling boil.
- Add the noodles to our paper bowl or your own pot.
- Set the bowl on the induction plate.
- Press a preset. It pours the water you saved and brings the bowl to a boil.
- Stir once partway, and eat in 3 to 5 minutes.
Real Bowls
The Bowls It Makes
Cooked by NEO CUCINA machines, and finished down to the broth.
No Kitchen Needed
What It Replaces
One machine in place of the kettle, the microwave noodles and the delivery app.
- Instead of: Microwaved or soaked noodles With Studio: Boiled right in the bowl, in 3 to 5 minutes
- Instead of: Waiting on a kettle for tea or coffee With Studio: Hot water in about 2 seconds, at four temperatures
- Instead of: Delivery fees and a tip on every order With Studio: Hot food at any hour, with no fee and no tip
- Instead of: A pot to scrub with no sink nearby With Studio: Our paper bowl means nothing to wash. Your own pot works too.
- Instead of: A kettle and a hot plate on one small counter With Studio: One machine, about as wide as a coffee maker
Every Day
Not Just Ramen
The same machine makes tea, breakfast, and whatever you cook in your own pot.
Hot Breakfast on a Rushed Morning
Pour hot water straight onto instant oatmeal, or cook porridge and congee in the bowl. Ready before you finish getting dressed.
Use Your Own Pot or Pan
The induction surface works on its own, no paper bowl needed. Fry an egg, warm a pot of soup, or cook a bigger batch. Set a time and it stops on its own.
Where It Fits
Made for Places With No Kitchen
All it needs is an outlet and a strip of counter.
Office Break Rooms
Hot noodles at lunch and tea water all day, from one machine instead of a line at the shared microwave.
Small Apartments
No stove, or no room to cook on it. A real hot meal from the counter space of a coffee maker.
Dorm Rooms
No open flame and no exposed heating coil, plus a child lock and overheat protection. Rules differ by school, so check yours first.
Night Shifts and Long Stays
When everything nearby is closed, or a hotel room is home for months. A hot bowl in 3 to 5 minutes, any hour.
Small Shops
Shops run Studio as a first machine at the counter or a second one in the back.
Selling ramen to customers all day?
NEO CUCINA Pro is built for it. Customers scan the ramen package and the machine loads the right water and cook time, and it can take payment at the machine.
Before You Buy
Frequently Asked Questions
Isn't it just a hot water dispenser?
No. The hot water tap is one half. The other half is the induction plate under the bowl: the machine pours the water, then brings the bowl itself to a real, rolling boil, so the noodles cook instead of soaking.
Do I have to use your paper bowls?
No. The NEO CUCINA paper bowls are there for convenience: cook right in the bowl and eat straight from it, with nothing to wash. But any induction-compatible pot, pan, or bowl works just as well. Two things to check: a magnet should stick to the bottom, and the base should be flat and about 5 to 8 inches (12 to 20 cm) across. There are no proprietary pods.
Can I use it as a cooktop?
Yes. The induction surface works on its own, with no paper bowl involved. Put any induction-compatible pot or pan on it to warm up soup, reheat last night's dinner, or make a bigger batch. Set a time and it stops on its own.
One thing to know up front: there is a single heat level, so it is built for boiling and heating rather than searing or slow simmering. For anything that needs step-by-step temperature control, keep your regular stove.
Do I need to connect it to plumbing?
No. Open the top lid and pour water straight into the tank, and lift the tank out when it needs a rinse. If you would rather never fill it by hand, connect a water line and it refills on its own.
Is it safe around kids?
The control panel stays locked until you press UNLOCK, so a stray tap does nothing, and overheat protection cuts power to the heating plate automatically. Everything that touches food or water is BPA-free. It is still a cooking appliance with a hot plate and hot water, so children should not use it on their own.
What is your warranty policy?
Our 2-year limited warranty covers manufacturing defects for products bought from NEO CUCINA or authorized dealers. If a unit is defective, we replace it.
See 7 more questions
What can I cook with it?
Anything that cooks in boiling water. Ramen, udon, pho, oatmeal, and more. For pasta or larger portions, use an induction-compatible metal pot instead of a paper bowl.
How do the presets work?
You set them yourself. Pick the water amount and cooking time that suit something you make often, save it to one of the three buttons, and it repeats the same thing every time after that. The presets work the same way whether you cook in a paper bowl or in your own pot, so nobody in the house has to remember the numbers again.
Do I need an app or Wi-Fi?
No. Everything runs on the machine itself. There is no app to download, no account to create, and no network to set up. Plug it in and it is ready.
How hot does the water get?
The dispenser has four temperature settings, from warm drinks up to near boiling. When cooking noodles, the induction plate brings the bowl to a full boil.
Can I use it in a dorm room or an office?
That depends on your building's rules, so check them first. What you can tell whoever sets them: there is no open flame and no exposed heating coil, the controls have a child lock, the heating plate has overheat protection, and it runs from a standard wall outlet.
Do you sell bowls and lids?
Studio or Pro: which one do I need?
Studio is for cooking for yourself, a household or an office, or a few bowls a day at a small counter. NEO CUCINA Pro is built for selling to customers all day: they scan the ramen package and it loads the right water and cook time, it can take payment at the machine, and you can change the menu remotely. Pro also carries ETL safety and sanitation listings, which a health inspector may ask to see.
