“There’s no art” in traditional homebrewing, but apparently there is in pressing one button on an automated microwave brewery (watch the video). This looks like a terrible idea to us. Another over-priced novelty kitchen product. What do you think?

Ex-Microsofties are kicking ass on Kickstarter with high-tech beer-brewing machine
Meet the PicoBrew Zymatic, the the world’s first fully automatic all-grain beer brewing system.
Brewing your own craft beer at home is a difficult, complicated and time-consuming process. Now, two former Microsoft veterans want to help you make a perfect glass of beer in less than an hour and with a push of a button.
In what is probably one of the more badass Kickstarter campaigns we’ve seen, a Seattle-based company called PicoBrewhas developed what they call the world’s first fully automatic all-grain beer brewing system that’s the size of a microwave.
The PicoBrew Zymatic basically allows you to have a full-scale brewery on your kitchen countertop. The device is simply a brewing box connected by hose to a Cornelius keg.
To make beer, you pour in your desired amount of malted barley, hops and water, then push a couple buttons to set a recipe. Three-and-a-half hours later, that water turns into beer. All you need to do is add yeast and let your new concoction ferment for a week and voila — you’ve got great-tasting craft beer at your disposal.
“It is, essentially, an espresso-maker for beer,” Bill Mitchell said in the Kickstarter video below.
OBK has released four new all-grain home brewing equipment kits (in addition to their previous four equipment starter extract kits for the beginning brewer).
Whether you want to try out “Brew-in-a-Bag” (BIAB) or go with the the ever popular cooler mash-tun direction. OBK has you covered. Based around the 9 gallon Stainless Steel Brew Pot, there are options for a large mesh bag for your mash, complete igloo cooler with false bottom, or weldless cooler kits for those who already have a cooler at home. And if you want to skip bottling and go straight to kegging, there’s a kit for that too!
In addition to the Equipment Kits, many new All-Grain Ingredient Recipe Kits have been updated and added for use with the above Equipment Kits. Check them out here!
As huge fans of keeping things simple, aswell as keeping costs low, we see the Brew-In-A-Bag technique as a great way to get started in your potentially new hobby of homebrewing. This technique has been really catching on for it’s ease of use, small foot-print and a cost effective way of going all-grain.
Below we are going to give an overview of where to get this equipment and how to get it shipped to your house for less than $175 taxes included! This will get you on your way to brewing any style of beer you can think of in your own home.
