Cold Brew On Tap 2.0 makes made-by-you cold brew super easy

NEWS – Cold brew coffee on tap, yes, please! The Cold Brew On Tap 2.0 lets you brew a weeks worth (8 to 12 cups) of fresh cold brew coffee all at once. And it not only brews the coffee it also stores and serves it.

Less mess, less work

You make the coffee in the compact two-liter brewing jar using a drop in fine mesh filter. All you need is ground coffee, water, and patience (brewing time is at least 12 hours). Then you can store and serve it straight from the fridge.

The coffee will stay fresh for up to two weeks thanks to a rust-free lid that seals in all that cold brewed goodness.

An adjustable stainless steel spigot makes serving easy. The spigot even has a mesh filter built-in to keep any stray grinds from getting into your cup.

With summer coming up fresh cold brew coffee straight from the fridge sounds pretty good to me.

The Cold Brew On Tap 2.0 is $49.95 and available from The Grommet.

The Twist Press Coffee Maker from Barista & Co – Notable crowdfunding campaign

CROWDFUNDING NEWS – I’m a fan of coffee, and although I can’t complain about the free coffee where I work, the flavor is less than…flavorful. I’ve had my eye on various coffee presses for a while and I recently stumbled onto the Twist Press Coffee Maker from Barista & Co. Let’s check it out.

What is it?

The Twist Press Coffee Maker from Barista & Co is a coffee press that relies on a twisting action via a simple and quick twisting action.

Why do I like it?

I like simplicity, and the Twist Press Coffee Maker from Barista & Co is a coffee press that has simplicity in spades. The Twist Press, as its simple but descriptive name implies, utilizes a patented, helical, twisting mechanism to compress a pocket of air to press hot water downward through the coffee grounds. Quick and easy. Made from high-grade polypropylene and BPA-free Tritan to ensure it can last for years, it is also dishwasher safe. The Twist Press’s chamber can hold three extra servings of coffee grounds for travel. It also includes 100 premium filter papers.

Where can I find more info?

The Twist Press Coffee Maker from Barista & Co campaign ends soon—April 4, 2019—and has already surpassed its funding goal of $21,799. Pledge packages start at about $21US for a single Twist Press and increase from there depending on the options selected. After the end of the campaign period, rewards are expected to start shipping in August 2019. Visit the The Twist Press Coffee Maker from Barista & Co campaign site for more information or to become a backer.

Now you can carry Audioengine sound with you

NEWS – When I’m asked to recommend speakers, Audioengine is always at the top of my list, no matter the budget. The reason is simple, Audioengine makes unpretentious, well-made speakers that perform beyond their cost, whether it’s the petite A2+ or higher end HD6 speakers. And now Audioengine has applied their speaker expertise to make the 512 portable Bluetooth speaker.

Don’t let the size of the portable 512 speaker fool you. It’s small enough to carry wherever you go, yet will still produce sound that’s bigger than its size. The 512 has surprising imaging and a large soundstage—something not associated with a small speaker. Audioengine wanted the 512 to be different by incorporating full-range transducers and a passive bass radiator to produce firm bass and a solid midrange with clean highs.

The 512 will stream instantly all your favorite music services, apps, and devices—Tidal, Spotify, Apple Music, you name it.

The 512 has an impressive battery life with a rechargeable lithium-ion battery that charges fast and plays up to 12 hours. Its wireless range is an impressive 100 ft—far wider than the standard 30 ft Bluetooth range. It uses the latest Bluetooth 5.0 for better sound quality. The 512 also comes with an AUX port for wired connection.

The Audioengine 512 portable Bluetooth speaker comes in either black or forest green and is priced at $169. Visit audioengineusa.com for more information.

Turn your attic room into your personal balcony with the Velux Cabrio balcony

NEWS – Do you have a room in your attic? Is it dark? Did you find it impossible to add natural light because of the pitch of the roof? Velux can add light, and add a balcony with their innovative Cabrio roof window and balcony combination.

The Cabrio installs like a skylight but can be opened to produce a personal balcony, allowing you to enjoy your morning coffee with a view. The upper section is top-hung and opens outward. The bottom section unfolds into a glazed balcony with side railings. Cabrio adds to your outdoor living space while also being able to provide filtered fresh air to your attic space when closed.

Cabrio comes with a clear coated pine interior finish, multiple exterior frame colors and in one size:

Outside frame (W” x H”) 37-1/16 x 99-1/4
Rough opening/ Finished frame (W” x H”) 39-3/8 x 101

Velux estimates completed installed costs to range from $4,450-$4,850 to replace a skylight with a Cabrio and $5,350-$5,950 for a new installation.

For more information and to find Velux certified installers, visit Velux.
