Brewie the Linux Powered Home Beer Maker
-
You can put this one super high on my "must have cool gadgets" list. Brewie is a 20 liter (5.2 gallons) beer brewing system with RFID, touchscreen and access from mobile devices. At $1499 this really is a cheap device considering the size, complexity and amount of work that it does for you. Brewing at home is somewhat complex and this takes the complexity out of the system making it easy for anyone to make beer themselves at home.
The system is powered by a single core ARM A8 processor and runs on Linux.
