Coffee made with the help of science

Do you also start your day with a cup of coffee? Here is an innovative idea, which may not substitute George but at least modern coffee machines: The Vacuum Brewer. It´s easier than you might think, just make your coffee with science!


As described on thinkgeek.com Vacuum brewing is exceptionally effective at extracting all the flavor from the coffee grounds without the more „chewy“ texture of the french press method.


Now how does it work? With vapor pressure! During the process of brewing, the rapid expansion and contraction of gasses pushes the liquid from vessel to vessel.

A perfect pancake plate

Do you like pancakes? As an American you almost have to… Here´s a plate that makes it much easier to enjoy them.

In his quest to create the perfect plate for devouring pancakes, designer Jon Wye broke down the elements of what makes a pillowy stack so comforting. After a lifelong love affair with breakfast, Wye pin-pointed the crux of satisfaction: syrup.

Designed with a raised edge that gently slopes the plate toward the diner and an ingenious reservoir for pooling loose syrup, this plate was made for slicing, dipping and delighting in each bite of pancake goodness. But the best part? This plate enhances any saucy dish down to the last drop.
