Hasta La Gadget!

You know, when you have a device that costs close to a Benjamin with a name that goes like this, “The Only Perfect Temperature Electric French Press”, you would surely expect quite a lot from it, don’t you think so? After all, there is the word “perfect” thrown into the mix, so expectations should run pretty high if you are on the lookout for a French press that churns out that perfectly brewed cup of coffee. Surely if the brew turns out otherwise, you might want to look for the culprit elsewhere – like the quality of coffee beans, perhaps?

The Only Perfect Temperature Electric French Press has been touted to be the only French press of its kind that will automatically brew coffee at the perfect temperature for rich, flavorful coffee. It will not be as clumsy as the imprecise heating that happens with a kettle, as this device will work to heat water to between 197° F and 204° F, ensuring that the temperature hovers within that range all the time so that you can extract optimal flavor from beans, followed by transferring the hot water to the French press so that your tongue can dance across the bouquets of flavor that bursts from this pot of coffee. Sporting a durable borosilicate glass body, this bad boy can hold up to 4 cups of coffee, and will be accompanied by a stainless steel plunger and screen.

Once in a while, a really zany idea crops up – and here we are with the $25 Flask Tie that is clearly pretty much self descriptive. To put it in a nutshell, the Flask Tie would make for the ideal piece in any executive’s wardrobe, although it has an added advantage of sporting a removable hidden flask pouch within. Just in case you were wondering what kind of company is able to think of such an item, it is the brainchild of the very same company that delivered the Pillow Tie to the masses. You will be able to choose from a range of slanty striped color combos, and the hidden pouch within has enough space to hold half a pint (8oz) of your favorite beverage.

If you want to be sneaky about bringing in a little “happy juice” into the office, then the Flask Tie is the way to go. We highly recommend that you do not pour in your favorite hot beverage inside, as it is not going to be too comfortable at all, and neither will it give you the kind of buzz that your “happy juice” would. This seems to be quite a worthy stocking stuffer this coming Christmas, don’t you think so?

Do you have an appetite on all things that have to do with the Doctor Who series? If you have answered in the affirmative, perhaps it is time to slake that thirst with the $59.99 Doctor Who Exclusive Dalek Tumbler Set. Yes sir, this bad boy will definitely scream “Exterminate! Exterminate! Exterminate!” whenever you encounter any thirst in your throat, assuming there is some life giving water inside, of course. Having emptied a can of isotonic drink into the Doctor Who Exclusive Dalek Tumbler Set beforehand would also help a whole lot, especially when your body is gasping for electrolytes.

You can choose from five different colors – red, orange, yellow, blue, and white, although we do not think that white is a wise color option to fall back upon considering how fast and easy it will get dirty. Not only that, if you are going to fill the Doctor Who Exclusive Dalek Tumbler Set with your favorite cold beverage, you would be happy to know that it is double walled, ensuring the mercury in there remains lower for longer periods of time.

You can shoot from the hip – without harming anyone in the process other than your liver, of course, and when you have drunk enough, it is time for you to shoot from the mouth as well. The £19.99 Shot Flask is nothing quite like a hip flask. It oozes with class, and sure as heck beats carrying a keg on your shoulder, where the latter is definitely far from being subtle, and it just makes your entire look so unrefined.

Of course, that is not all, the Shot Flask itself is a gorgeous, leather-wrapped, stainless-steel hip flask. It sports a collapsible 60ml metal shot glass which is carried within the flask itself, thanks to a recess that has been carved out on the the flask. At first glance, it does look as though it is an embossed badge, where the shot glass will pop out and extend telescopically so that you end up with a solid 60ml cup. This allows you to share a toast with the rest of your mates – ideal when your favorite sports team wins, or for you to drown your sorrows in them. All without having to worry about any mess whatsoever to clean up after that.

Time for a kitchen fix! For you cooks out there, have you ever taken a step back from the counter when making a concoction only to find EVERY measuring tool strewn across the surface? Ugh. It seems that you never need just the teaspoon or just the ¼ cup. It always has to involve every device plus a spoon or whisk to mix it. This is exactly why we all need a Portion Classic. The spoon portion indicates ½ teaspoon, teaspoon and tablespoon. The neck of the spoon holds up to ¼ cup of wet or dry ingredients with a wide pour spout at the end. And of course you can stir your mixture with the Portion Classic. Silcone spoon and spout plus plastic handle means easy cleaning too. Available at Quirky.com for just $8.99 means all chefs should own one.

Also on Quirky are Sliders, a novel idea for skewer cooking and grilling. One of the challenges with using skewers is getting the food off. There never seems to be a fork around when doling food onto your guests’ plates. Use fingers? Eeew. The skewers include double prongs, to hold food on, and heat resistant sliders on the prongs. Place the Slider on the plate and slide the food right off. A set of 4 Sliders will only run you $24.95 and is certainly a convenience any grilling guru can appreciate.
