I love the form factor of this power-tower power strip that gives you the room for whatever you need to plug in, without fighting over space. Each level has its own on/off switch so you can selectively power certain items, or save power by turning them off. It even rotates on the base for accessibility!
I own one of these (actually the slightly older, but pretty much the same Model S), and after having spent years doing home-brewing the old fashioned way, I’m never going back. PicoBrew has made a machine that turns home brewing into a modular, semi-automated experience that keeps the magic, but gets rid of much of the mess. The device itself includes the pumps and steam-generating abilities that allow it to cook the wort, and then transfer it to the fermenting keg (and later into the serving keg). Everything is kept simple and sanitary every step of the way, making setup and clean-up so much easier that traditional methods. And the library of pre-proportioned recipe packs is amazing (or you can devise your own recipes right on their website). Home brewing has never been easier, or more elegant! This is the same model they recently successfully Kickstarted and brought to market. They sell for $549 retail, but Massdrop has special deal on factory-refurbished units. Depending upon how many people sign up for this deal you could pick up a Pico Model C for as low as $400!
With the Pico Brew C, you can brew award-winning beers at home, from scratch—all without hoses, buckets, bottles, or messy cleanup. Capable of brewing up to 5 liters of beer, the Pico Brew C allows you to taste each beer just how the brewer intended, fresh off the line. It works by using PicoPaks, which have premeasured grains, hops, and yeast. Just pop them in the chamber and let the Pico Brew C go to work. The entire process, from PicoPak to pint, takes a week if you force carbonate, and two weeks with natural carbonation. The best part? You can choose from more than 100 different award-winning beer recipes from some of the top breweries in the world. And if you want to create something new, you can make your own recipe on the Pico Brew website. Everything is easy to navigate and tweak via the OLED display.
All orders will be shipped by the vendor.
Estimated ship date is Feb 26, 2018 PT.
Join the drop today, and get a Pico Model C for as low as $400!
