Brooklyn Steel Co.

Overview

Brooklyn Steel Co. launched the Talos 20 with a storefront that educates first-time buyers, showcases the brand's Brooklyn identity, and drives accessory upsells — turning a considered purchase into a confident one.

Brooklyn Steel Co. is a kitchen appliance brand inspired by Brooklyn's creative energy. Their flagship Talos 20 Espresso Machine brings café-quality brewing, built-in grinding, and milk frothing to home kitchens.

The Problem

• Home espresso is a considered purchase — customers need to understand features before committing $499.
• The brand's Brooklyn-inspired identity had to come through in every scroll, not just product photos.
• Bundle and accessory merchandising needed to support higher average order values.
• Brew Guides and educational content were needed to reduce post-purchase uncertainty.

The Solution

• Shopify storefront with a feature-education product page for the Talos 20 (grind settings, pressure gauge, steam wand, dual spout).
• Visual feature cards that explain capabilities in benefit language, not spec sheets.
• Mix-and-match bundle builder for limited-edition coffee cup collections.
• Machines, Mugs, and Accessories collection pages with Brooklyn-branded typography and tone.
• Brew Guides content section for post-purchase confidence.

The Outcome

The storefront at brooklynsteelco.com now delivers measurable improvements for the business and its customers.

• Product education reduces purchase hesitation for a premium appliance.
• Brand storytelling reinforces Brooklyn Steel's unique café-at-home positioning.
• Bundle merchandising supports higher average order values.
• Brew Guides build loyalty and reduce return risk.
