Seattle-based startup PicoBrew announced on Monday the launch of its fourth reward-based crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter. The company is currently seeking $350,000 for its latest craft brewing product, C and has already secured more than $115,000 thanks to nearly 400 backers.
While sharing details about the new project, Dr. Bill Mitchell, CEO of PicoBrew, stated;
“We’ve spent a significant amount of time listening to our customers who were early adopters of the initial Pico to identify areas where we could streamline and simplify the use of the appliance even further. By making improvements to our hardware with a sleeker design and easier-to-use and clean brewing keg, and by offering a more accessible price point, brewing fresh craft beer at home can be a reality for an even larger number of craft beer enthusiasts. We are excited to offer incentives through our Kickstarter campaign that will allow the earliest backers to secure their own Pico Model C for more than 50% off the retail price, with plenty of other enticing add-ons to choose from.”
Features of the new Pico Model C craft beer brewing appliance include:
- High-contrast two-line OLED display;
- Brews existing PicoPaks and Freestyle PicoPaks in about 2 hours
- Dishwasher-safe Pico C Keg with a simplified hose connection
PicoBrew is currently selling its Pico C product through the Kickstarter campaign, starting at $279. The company also reported that Pico C will retail for $549 when it hits stores in fall 2017 and will include the brewing appliance, Pico C Brewing Keg and 5L serving keg. PicoPaks and CO2 carbonation kit will be sold separately. The Pico C Kickstarter is set to run until May 12th.
