October 23, 2017 – Seattle, WA – PicoBrew celebrates the launch of its Pico Model C, the countertop brewery appliance that shattered Food Kickstarter records this spring, with a week of product pre-orders, releases, announcements and the ultimate Seattle craft beer tasting event. The Pico Model C Kickstarter campaign is PicoBrew’s fourth successfully funded and fulfilled campaign.
“With the launch of Pico Model C, we’re pushing our offerings beyond just a craft beer appliance to a full countertop brewery and ultimate kitchen appliance,” said Dr. Bill Mitchell, CEO, PicoBrew. “The PicoFerm fermentation device and BrewPulse app give beer brewers even more precision and control over their brews, while the PicoStill and sous-vide capability allow them to explore culinary creation beyond beer. We think every foodie and beer-lover should have a Pico Model C on their countertop.”
