chef

is one sometimes they cook you great food and number two when you are a normal looking to buy something for your kitchen you can get their advice James First question how do you support something that has been financed by

crowd

funding?

I know quite a bit of a Scott stereotype. Do you want to raise a bell? Sure Jamie Wow, coffee, tea is tea. easy that's why we created it arista simplicity qi Arista comes with six preset brewing programs start brewing with the push of a button agent enjoy your brewed teas without the hassle Qi Arista will brew your tea effortlessly Would you like to make a cup of tea, from done im looking forward to making a cup of tea ok james in front of you you have everything you need to make yourself and us a delicious cup of tea take off the lid and a fuse oh voila fill the kettle. with clean drinking water, ok, I filled it up to two cups, place tea leaves inside the infuser, turn on the Brit row by long pressing brew for two seconds, press type to toggle the selection of the desired tea type, and then press print que on It was actually easier than I expected the duration of the brew and the temperature of the water to change.

Definitely the temperature does not want to boil a kettle and then put water at 100 degrees, I do not know why it burns the tea that is known as the same with coffee. it burns the coffee, so it seems like it's for people trying to get the best tea experience in a more convenient way. I'm still not sure how it works. steam in there the steam does condense and intersperses a lot of words to serve remove the pot from the base and never put your hand under the spout it's a good cup of tea there are a lot of variables it's not controlling like you're making black tea it's not controlling how much milk you want so people who love their tea how much chicken would they pay to back this 50 quid ok he had eleventy eighty backers yeah including us you're welcome um that's the goal of sixty thousand Pam and on they actually got a hundred and thirty two thousand pounds so they totally crushed it.

There is only one 110 pound round. I would expect something that looks a bit smarter. I agree that it doesn't feel premium, but I think a lot of things that are backed on Kickstarter. I have never created the websites. The end result never feels like you'd expect because it also had to be done quickly and cheaply, but I always look at that kind of thing as the first step in a much bigger process I think it's only going to get better from that point on I can imagine. to the people back at this they are very happy with what it does 110 posters stuff like that alot right mate great question for you i thought we passed this to you is it an IndieGoGo or an indie no no uh its not a black and white but I'll say IndieGoGo turn around I knew it wouldn't fit whoa hot on earth is that oh it's got bins and it's got little cuts it's got some graters it could be here all day why don't you play the video?

We love to take pride in the meals we cook, but cooking at home can be a lot of work, time, and endless searching. for the right kitchen tool it can be frustrating meat prep deck your complete meal prep system what are you thinking what is this no oh is that cutting board is it a cutting board and cover oh this is so this is how higher quality than bro so we could stand here and look at it or we think we actually go ahead and use it so what we would like you to do is make the baked eggs recipe from our bundles app and see how you do I think that i have all my ingredients i'm going to choose it's my smoke in the oven do you really like it this is your kind of recipe i'm going to put all this in my trash can too i don't appreciate the fact that Jessa is keeping knives in there because that definitely it will ruin them.

Why don't I put them here? So all you have so far is a utensil which is a knife, yes, and our own cutting board, just what James has. a garlic crusher so no my garlic is done you know what I don't want to waste a place so just put it in oh yeah these are people who get as much satisfaction organizing as they do cooking yeah he's not using well the slicer technically I'm dicing okay tiny my chili usually if I'm cooking at home I just separate it out on the board or I'll have a skillet and I'll just put it in the pan as I go but I'm trying. to test this specifically, I'm setting up an ovenproof skillet over high heat and add a tablespoon of oil, the onion and bell pepper, add the chile and garlic, a can of black beans, rinse them well to remove the liquid, and then I toss them into the saucepan with a tablespoon of cumin and a tablespoon of smoked paprika stirring it all together a tablespoon of tomato puree stir well then add 200 milliliters of water and half a can of diced tomatoes we will use the other half in the pasta dish this week it has a very thin tip so it forces you to stay organized and be clear look my impression is that it has actually caused as much or more mess than it would have done without it but all the mess is encapsulated but it's encapsulated within the good clutter, yes that's an interesting point, maybe it's good for you, because you are forced to organize your clutter, wash the eggs, our bacon in the oven, let's chat about the device, how did it go? the hardest life Oh do you have something like that before it looks a lot like what you might find in a professional kitchen where you have a bunch of things lined up ready for service so when you're cooking at home when it's helpful to contain your disorder?

I mean all those parts are dishwasher safe except for the cutting board and the work station itself. I need to make a recipe because they had a goal of 20,000 and they got five thousand four hundred and sixty nine backers with a total of six hundred and fifty seven thousand four hundred and thirty pounds that's a lot of people spending a lot of money can you? do the math I think it could be over a hundred pounds except for one time when this is backed we'd get it for a bargain forty six percent off we got it for £122 wait wait wait wait this is this retails for just under two hundred and fifty pounds 227 pounds that's crazy as normal I can fully relate to the problem you're trying to solve yes being more organized in the kitchen is something I need to do when I'm cooking I'm not 100 percent sure I agree with the solution, but that takes the idea out of everything.

Yes James. I have a big question for you: crowdfund or crowd shunned for me personally. I like an organized kitchen but I don't think he's helping me in the kitchen and slowing down so he's a Crouch why my packages are ready I got a notification now I know his baked eggs are ready and he wants to dig in, but before we dig should we get another device, be quick because the yolks won't be running make the baked eggs look smell so good darling i could cook them at home for a cheap monthly subscription at £499 to get your packs in the books we keep podcast i mean it sounds like a great deal no maybe i should check the link in the description box below hmm wouldn't you like if you had something to help you eat those baked eggs which will help me eat the eggs in the porridge? you're out these days thanks for calling it good this feels a lot more premium than it looks this is what i meant how to make something small and simple and do it the way you wanted to do it what we have here i have got a knife fork and spoon .

Why don't you put the video? This is John and John is a nice person but when it comes to eating with plastic cutlery he just doesn't give a fork. We created the best cutlery in the world that I created this little box with some of the powers of the gods to somehow fit this into this introduction of our world's first plastic-free, portable folding cutlery and chopsticks. that we've talked about in videos before if it's about using bamboo wood cutlery cutting those kinds of things what do you think solves that problem? Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, I don't see myself carrying them with me all the time. right phone wallet keys covered no ok don't or try them yes i do what would i do this yes how could we use it? could have got the same result as a recipe it was great ok the key thing is the fork and spoon don't give it any extra flavor off flavor it doesn't have any knife probably small looks like it could have been ya agree I agree with that, it works fine though.

I'm really interested in the knife because, looking at it, it reminds me a lot of the kind of knife you get at an airport that's sharp enough to help you with cuts. butter but not sharp enough to hurt someone or do the job it's supposed to do with real food eggs cut great even though they are similar to war but it's good it's how it feels feels good and in any situation in Whichever you're offered plastic or wooden knives, then these would be ten times better. They had a goal of 4200 to get this going. don't forget the money showing there's an incredible demand for things like it's easy to understand it's a little cheaper to get involved so cost wise what do you think fifty quid?

I do a few different versions so you can get a knife or spoon you just get chopsticks or this is the complete set it's 40lbs I mean that's quite a lot it feels like a lot of money but I also feel like this is something I go to you aspire and you will stop. using plastic cutlery and you know you're taking positive steps forward to help that yeah ok i should ask you the big question dawn you've been thinking about this for a long time is this a Kickstarter or not? I like the simplicity. I like the way it looks and feels so you can do it on Kickstarter or you can lower the kicks higher can you because it's as high as a calf weight? the kitchen is sometimes a bit of a hindrance oh i didn't pour any water in there it fell over that's a fake sink so we thought maybe it's time for a revamp let's build the ultimate smart kitchen and if you like. to see that process you need to give a video like we got over 50,000 likes we will film the whole process and post the journey on our youtube channel how exciting but for now i woke up and there was a handwritten note on the my other half's fridge is just red not working bye which was weird because when i open the fridge the lights seem to work fine the packages app is just one of the tools used as part of the sorting Club members are finding out too and share restaurant recommendations using the Eat app by listening to and contributing to our podcast Feast your ears and give us inspiration for new cookbooks received throughout the year, it's all included so check out the ranked membership by heading to the club of classified points and now a blooper oh that's pretty unaware that all these headphones work
