For the Tech Geeks

· Creativity, in the face of necessity, knows no bounds. Check out the following URL for an awesome beer cooler. And just a point of interest·. Notice that the Guinness can sold in New Zealand advises you to "Serve Extra Cold" ·.. what's up with that? http://www.asciimation.co.nz/beer/

If you find this type of engineering interesting, check out a couple of designs from C.D. Pritchard.

The amazing wort chiller & oxygenator, get your wort ready to pitch almost instantly - http://chattanooga.net/~cdp/moocow.htm

Need a new brewing system? Check out the WRIMS, I'm sure you've got a washing machine in the house ·. http://home.highertech.net/~cdp/wrims.htm

And for the non-politically correct, an x-rated beer holder. Do Not click if you're easily offended - http://chattanooga.net/~cdp/beerhold.htm

If you were impressed by C.D.'s wort chiller, this might interest you as well. There is an annual contest for quickest starting of a bbq grill, held by engineering types. Several years ago this was won by a team using LOX. Seems this would have brewing potential as well but I've apparently deleted the link. You'll have to search for it yourself if you're interested.
