Scotsman Beer Dispenser Pours Ten Pints in Ten Seconds

The Scotsman Trufill beer dispenser takes a different approach to filling pints, by filling from the bottom up. In doing so, it is able to serve beer at the alarmingly fast rate of ten pints in ten seconds. One would assume that a specialized cups or glasses are required in order to make use of the bottom-up filling method, but if it gets us beer faster, I am all for it.

Wenger Giant Swiss Army Knife

If this doesn’t take the cake, it will at least slice it in 67 different ways. The Wenger Giant Swiss Army Knife features a staggering 85 implements and is capable of performing over 100 tasks. It comes complete with double-cut wood saw, laser flashlight, universal wrench, golf divot repair tool and of course, what Swiss Army Knife is complete without a flashlight? It does weigh 1.5kg though, so you may not want to put it anywhere flimsy. Like a pocket.

The Blok is an awesome new minimalist faucet mounted to a large shelf. Embedded within the shelf is a glowing digital display showing the water’s temperature. You can view the thermostat to instantly know if the water is too hot or too cold without having to do the tried and true water touching method.

I work from home and I sure would not get any work done if I had the desktop cotton candy maker. I would be bouncing off the walls!

The desktop cotton candy maker – how cool would that be (although I may get even fatter!)

Brenna Says:

I think this cotton candy maker is awesome. I should get the $50 gift card because I need the money for Christmas. I am planning to get my niese this new toy that is like $200. It’s rediculas I know, but she is only 1 in 5 poeple that I buy gifts for, so I don’t care.

Giant Swiss Army Knife takes the cake. I’ve wanted to buy one of those for years. Seriously, that thing has just about everything you need to survive. Yeah, I’m suprized there isn’t a laptop and cell phone tucked in there as well.

max Says:

I would have to go with the laptop, it has a touch screen and is a laptop hands down the winner.

EC Says:

November 23rd, 2008 at 3:56 pm

I’d say the car battery charger, it has a more practical use than any of the other ones. Though it isn’t very fun…

I think that the best thing is the HP TouchSmart tx2 notebook. It is like a touchscreen laptop. I think it is so cool. If I had the money I would buy one.

Definetely the best.

Krysta Says:

The perfect water temp every time would be awesome. How about multiple water temperature presets?

Amanda Says:

I love the built in thermostat.

Chris Says:

November 25th, 2008 at 10:33 pm

The faucet just rocks! tired of scalding your hands with hot boiling water or mistreting them with freezing water? You’re too sophisticated for that! Buy the faucet and just feel the thermostat! simple!

I really like the car battery charger because I’ve had my battery go dead in the winter time and it really sucks.
