A Chef Reviews Crowd Funded Kitchen Gadgets Vol.2 | SORTEDfood

Hello and welcome back to classified food. Now, when it comes to

crowd

funded

kitchen

items, we love exploring why these things exist, what problem they're trying to solve, and who in their right mind would buy them, for that reason and on topic. To welcome you back we're going to put three of these devices to the test Guess who's back It's our very own

James Curry Thank you Thank you That was good Device number one Lift the shock You haven't forgotten how to do it But what is it? it has something to do with beer designed because the best way to drink beer is topless uh sorry it's not exactly what you think no it is I agree so the keg cap is designed to remove the Securely caps an entire can of beer so you can drink. from it like a glass and you get all the extra aromas that would otherwise be trapped inside and you don't really go through a single pull of the ring, that sounds scary, yes it did.

Should we try it? I think we should, so you need to pull. Take out its little handle, then press down on the top clamp to close it and you should rotate it about 180 degrees, but what you need to keep in mind is that while holding the can, hold the can from below so it doesn't get squeezed when you release the pressure and You push it in and then release the lever. I totally understand what you're doing right now, so it's like you've done the right job. What's annoying is that it actually did it pretty well because Ben and I tried to do this before we started filming and we made a real mess, but essentially what you got was a safe container to drink from and the reason is that it cuts and it folds or crushes and folds at the same time, so it is actually turning the sharp edges on itself.

It's great, like it worked, it did exactly what it said it would do, we very deliberately gave you an aromatic, citrusy beer with poppy, drinking like that helps, it's been a while since I've had a beer, I don't think I've had a beer this year, something strange, the bad influence, maybe if I wanted to have the experience of drinking it without a wrinkle type situation, I would prefer to pour it into a glass because then you can control the head and make sure there is a head being British I like its head he's back what they say about this is that with the lid completely removed it's a lot easier to pour if you want instead of puffing where it's fighting the air trying to get in, so it's a lot easier port control, the other thing that's useful is if your beer or whatever canned drink you prefer with a garnish, for example a little bit of lime, a little bit of orange and a blue moon, then you certainly can't throw that into a bunch of rings, but now you have The option to do it if you are out on a picnic, having a barbecue, camping and you don't have glasses but you have cans, then the giraffe top slides easily into your pocket.

I'm not a big beer drinker, but I like it. a rum and coke, you could take the top off the coke and put your miniature rum on it, that would actually be pretty cool, I imagine it will get a reaction from people and if you think of the reaction as something

crowd

, this had Huge reaction so this was massively overfunded by over six hundred thousand dollars in funding on the platform originally and as of yesterday when we filmed this it was actually backed by Shark Tank one of the sharks so it has adequate support. a new approach now considering this has been created by normal people and trying to get this idea off the ground, these aren't mass produced yet, how much do you think it costs to support this?

I'm going to say like 20 It costs 24.99, which is about £18, so we've seen it in action. We have heard the price. The question is: did this open your mind or is it not worth finding? That's what it says. It has opened my mind. I'm open to it, number two, James, please pick it up. He feels good, very tactile, doesn't he? Yes, he is very tactile. Well, it's sticky, so maybe it's like a countertop protector. This is Scrub Bio, the latest generation of ecological silicone brushes for the

kitchen

and bathroom. your daily life and ultra durable to preserve nature, it has eight multifunctional uses in one and is recyclable, ultra durable and high quality silicon, indeed, it is magical, but can you name the eight functions? um scrubbing, you can scrub pans or vegetable dishes.

My next point was that you don't want to scrub vegetables with the same scrubbing pad that you want to scrub pans with, since it's silicone and easy to clean, it wouldn't really make any difference unlike a tea towel, you wouldn't want to have a kitchen you have necessarily cleaned the dirt and then the things, but in reality once you have used it it will be like new. It's in two scrubbing description strengths one on each side it works well let's move on to the pan specifically it is very gentle especially on non stick pans to be fair it is gentle on pans and that's good it seems to be working well, the good thing is that it is actually magnetic so it can stick to anything nearby and if that is not magnetic then it comes with its own magnetic element so you can put it next to the sink or next to anywhere where rub your vegetables.

Don't know. We have given you some more clues. James, can you guess the rest of the functions? spoon holder check, are you serious? a spoon rest, yes it's useful right, trivia or countertop savior, you're absolutely right, check, but okay, what if that lid is hot? Well, poi like that, yes, six, too, this thing is as useful in the bathroom as Is the kitchen okay? Yeah, then you could put soap on it. You could rub your back with it. Yes, rubbing someone else's back with it. Oh, now we're talking about Ben. They're the best friends. I like it.

I think the important thing is to focus on the environmental impact and that's the selling point of it rather than the eight-in-one, which makes it feel a little ridiculous and I think that's what caught everyone's attention. He has had the support of more than 2,000 sponsors. He raised more than 70,000 euros, so let's talk. price uh this comes in a set of two for 21 euros it's about 18 quid and the question is would you put one in your kitchen? I would put it in my kitchen as a replacement for scouring pads and cloths if it works and stays clean. so it's a good product, I don't think I would use it for anything else and thus the question: are you joining the club or is it not worth the wash?

I'll join the club, sure they're a little expensive, but I guess you'll save in the long run, okay? Okay James, it's not in its original box, but gadget number three, the Clash is doing its job, I can't see what it is, oh first impressions, what's heavy, it's good quality, it means heavy. quality not in the case of jamie two clippers but I will take revenge what comes in here open your clothes maybe it is a rotisserie thing but there is no heat element so where will the heat come from the oven james this is the broken q360 the first Non-electric automatic rotating rotisserie smart kitchen eat smart non-electric maybe it can go to the oven, but how does it rotate?

Oh, does it roll up? You are a stored rope kinetic energy with a sinuous twist. I missed you, you were just saying randomly. The sentences have some destructions James, you will notice this as you build it, it means it stores a flat pack and therefore takes up minimal space, guys I think I have put it together, it requires no electricity, gas or batteries to run . It has been designed to fit in any home. If you have an oven, you can place it in your kitchen. Did you ever think you needed this in your life? Once we tried to make lean duck and you want to hang it in the oven, this might have helped.

If you have chosen the basket there, you can imagine that it is useful for many things, from roasting coffee beans, nuts, seeds or playing bingo or tombola using a gearbox that stores kinetic energy when the knob of the device is turned, three minutes equals one turn and therefore the maximum number of turns is 20 and it can give you one hour of cooking, what are we going to cook with it? I'm glad you asked, okay, now you have in front of you all the ingredients you need to make our Spiced Roasted Beets. yogurt recipe from our meal pack app, we can't wait to see how beech root is roasted in this spin dryer, okay, I have the app, I should try it please, cool, like thousands of people have endorsed this , the concept is obviously very strong, but personally I don't know how much difference it makes to say roast chicken that we grew up with, so that's what we know and love, but that's always done on a baking sheet and it's very different than roasting any thing in rotation because it is much more. even the juices drip and are based on what you are cooking and then the excess strips on a tray to make them different.

I think we are more used to roasting chicken in an oven on a tray that goes into the oven at 200 degrees for about 15 minutes, I think we should emphasize that the gearbox is particularly noisy until of course you put it in your hot sound chamber. It makes me think of something sizzling, yeah, like hitting the bottom of the oven, so I'll remember that hopefully everything will be okay. Because we were so progressive, we crowdfunded two of these and so we have another one in the other kitchen with chicken going around and around and around and we'll compare both at the end.

Do we support only this one? We are the main ones. He was over nine thousand two. Does it work under the grill because that's what I would love to use under a grill like say the same thing as dough if you have room to put it under the grill? Yes, food, James. great day oh hi oh you've burned yourself more than once with that so far it's a little hard when it's hot because this is heavy oh that worked I like the kale chips even more if you had something in the basket that was dripping on them, yeah, it really lends itself to things that have their own fat involved in the meat, basically, so the beets are cooked.

I'm plating it with my yogurt, quinoa and kale dressing, so the beet that you put back in that kind of balsamic. oil seasoned dressing What does it look like? Is it a uniform roast? It's good? That's wrong? How is it working for you? It's definitely uniform. I think something like walnuts would be really good because you put the pine nuts in the oven and five minutes later they are there. They are black if you are cooking like large quantities of nuts or more likely coffee beans, that would be great, elegant, healthy, delicious and can be made with or without a roaster.

I love it while you finish. We also have a roast chicken. in the other kitchen we will bring them, place them on plates and try them all, it certainly smells good, that was easy. I'm just as excited about those potatoes in the bottom drip pan as I am about the chicken, they call me that. it's done everything i would expect a varied chicken it's really even um it's a really succulent breast it looks great what a great day what a great day welcome back you have a very nice, uniform color um it's a nice chicken but the potatoes are amazing that's why I chose that first because they are better than what you can do otherwise, if I compare it to a roast chicken that I would buy in a store, it is just as good, it is the same, but surely the best option for that machine is the barbecue where there is a heat source that covers the bottom, I think what we need to do is remove that tray and you could put a Barbie on it, yeah it looks great with a Barbie, so we paid the advance price, the package price and it was 99 .for that with all the accessories, if I had 100 to spend on kitchen equipment I would probably choose something else over this, but if you have all that stuff then go for it, is it a smart rotation or a strange creation? a smart rotation is a smart rotation well that's up to you, can you see yourself endorsing any of these devices and keep your eyes peeled for other kitchen devices that are currently being crowdfunded?

Do you think we should jump into the proverbial backslide? below and tweet us at salted food with the hashtag sorted

gadgets

. It's a refrigerator magnet, so it's super easy. In addition to all its uses, it is very easy to store because I am close by. Well, I'm giving you errors. Let's put it like this. In addition, it is also a refrigerator magazine, has an eco-friendly design and eight uses. Great, the question is: James, is it worth the rub. I haven't even done it.
