3D-printing technology is becoming more popular, especially in medicine, for example in dentistry. But 3D printer types are good, first of all, its universal concept, so they can be used to create almost everything you could wish for. And they allow you to unite professionals working on this equipment, with lovers who would like to develop your skill using the 3D-printer. Now a “bridge” appeared for the Brewers.
The main features 3D printer types for printing beer
The young startup from Seattle PicoBrew, in the past, has successfully completed a campaign on Kickstarter with the project Zymatic – compact home brewery – decided to try his luck again on the popular site. Now, the guys offered to potential customers to buy Pico, which they call 3D printer types for beer, emphasizing ease of interaction with the gadget.
The new gadget is different from Zymatic compact (30 cm wide, 14 kg weight) and focus on the man in the street who loves to drink beer instead of his own produce, but wants at least partially participate in the process. Fill the container with water, add the hops and grains from the complete set, click the “cooking” – that’s all. Then the installation will do everything on their own, offering owner 5 liters of beer alone cooked. And cook in such a device can be different varieties, as well as trying different proportions and additives in search of a better recipe.
PicoBrew hope that their new act unifying gadget between professionals of home brewing and ordinary users, as it did in its time 3D-printers, will translate the ideas of inhabitants in a physical form that is usually only available when factory production or the presence of special tools: “We actually create a new international market for crafting a beer that combines the traditional brewery, a small place of production of beer and consumers. “
The creators encouraged their product over which they had to work for five years. Startups call their development a major step towards the realization of its mission to disseminate home brewing to the masses. The price tag is also focused on the more mainstream users – the cost after gadget of the sale will be $ 999, and for those who take part in the fundraising campaign, 3D-printer for the beer will cost 499 dollars.
This is not the case when the 3D printer types are used to “print” food: Foodini hamburger or pizza, ChefJet – candy and Solidoodle knows how to make ice cream. But Pico is another way to prepare a complex product at home without any difficulty and in-depth knowledge of the brewing process. At this rate, the house can be arranged full production of all desirable and necessary for life products. A parsley can be grown in ordinary pot on the windowsill. Or buy another special gadget.
