Tech and beer collide in this machine, which not only allows you to dispense 10 pints of fresh beer, but to brew it yourself too.

The sustainable service from The Greater Good Fresh Brewing Co. involves ordering a 10-pint Eco-Crate via the Pinter app, before purifying, adding fresh press (a concentrated medley of ingredients) and brewing yeast to the mix, before leaving it to ferment and then conditioning in the fridge (you’ll need to clear a shelf in a normal-sized fridge). Clear step-by-step instructions with videos can be found on Pinter’s website.

When the beer is ready, tap it straight from the barrel-shaped machine into your glass. If you’ve always fancied trying your hand at making small-batch beer, Pinter puts you in the driving seat.

Design-wise, there’s a departure from black (if you want it), with red and blue options available. Beer is available on a one-off or a rolling subscription basis, so you’ll never go without, with a menu of IPA, stout, pilsner, lager, ciders and ales to choose from. Using ingredients from elsewhere will cancel the one-year warranty, so that’s something to bear in mind, but Pinter adds new options to its collection routinely which should be enough to satisfy any thirst.

Brewing at home means, short of suckling straight from the brewery, you’ll enjoy the freshest pints you’ll ever taste, made yourself.
