New amazing pasta maker

| No Comments

Zevro Pasta Cooker uses 50% less water and up to 70% less energy, and can also be used to store your pasta while not in use.

Only uses a litre of boiling water, and no need to stir the pasta or watch while cooking (so you can get back to the keyboard).

No details on a release date yet, but I’m keen.

WAS Halo Board released Dec 15th

halo2.jpg Equalizer for Halo-B is a replacement board for your hopper with heaps of features like battery saving abilities and antijam technology.

“How many times have you sat in a bunker with the Halo blinking red/green? It’s jammed and now you have to fight with manually fixing the jam using your finger or the rip drive (if you have one) and turn the hopper off and back on. 5-10 seconds have easily gone by with a marker that is down.”
