This is slightly off-topic -- but for any kitchen nerds out there, Dave Arnold of Cooking Issues (amazing podcast[0]) and Searzall fame is doing a crowdfunding campaign[1] to build an "affordable" centrifuge for the kitchen/bar. His goal is to make it the next piece of high-end modernist cooking gear within reach of the home cook...
Not anywhere close to the $0.20 cost of this paper centrifuge, but still a pretty huge savings compared to the $6k-$10k units generally available currently.

- Chris2048 10y agoNot sure the $6k centrifuge isn't a lot better though. See "DO I REALLY NEED TO BUY A CENTRIFUGE?" section here-> http://www.ginandluck.com/clarified-citrus-centrifuge-process/ http://www.ginandluck.com/clarified-citrus-centrifuge-proces... Also, do you have to clean this one each time (as opposed to using different bottles placed inside?
- erikcw 10y agoOf course the home cook doesn't need a centrifuge -- but I sure do want one! Kind of like how I started cooking sous vide 5 years ago with nothing but a pot, a probe thermometer, some ziplock bags, and a ton of patience. 3 meals later an I was wiring together my first home-made circulator...
- Chris2048 10y agoMy point is, that section discusses pricing. BTW, did you document the home made circulator? I bought a bunch of Anovas during cyber Monday, and wondering if that works out economically...
