White dwarfs are often found in close binaries with stellar or even substellar companions. It is generally thought that these compact binaries form via common envelope evolution, triggered by the progenitor of the white dwarf expanding after it evolved off the main sequence and engulfing its companion. To date, a handful of white dwarfs in compact binaries with substellar companions have been found, typically with masses greater than around 50 M-Jup. Here, we report the discovery of two eclipsing white dwarf plus brown dwarf binaries containing very low mass brown dwarfs. ZTF J1828+2308 consists of a hot (15900 +/- 75 K) 0.610 +/- 0.004M(circle dot) white dwarf in a 2.7 h binary with a 0.0186 +/- 0.0008 M-circle dot (19.5 +/- 0.8 M-Jup) brown dwarf. ZTF J1230-2655 contains a cool (10000 +/- 110 K) 0.65 +/- 0.02 M-circle dot white dwarf in a 5.7 h binary with a companion that has a mass of less than 0.0211 M-circle dot (22.1 M-Jup). While the brown dwarf in ZTF J1828+2308 has a radius consistent with its mass and age, ZTF J1230-2655 contains a roughly 20 per cent overinflated brown dwarf for its age. We are only able to reconstruct the common envelope phase for either system if it occurred after the first thermal pulse, when the white dwarf progenitor had already lost a significant fraction of its original mass. This is true even for very high common envelope ejection efficiencies (alpha(CE) similar to 1), unless both systems have extremely low metallicities. It may be that the lowest mass companions can only survive a common envelope phase if it occurs at this very late stage.
