It is not always easy to find the right meals to prepare - let alone the cooking times. This is where the Orange Chef’s Countertop device comes in as an excellent addition to any kitchen.
The gadget can be synchronized with your iPhone or iPad that you can pair with appliances in your kitchen such as Vitamix blenders, Crockpot slow cookers, and more. Not only do you get recommendations of what to eat via your smartphone, the Countertop helps you out by giving you recipe directions, and has the ability to keep track of what you’re consuming!
With the looks of a glorified cutting board, you make your appliances smart by adding on an adapter. For example, it’s as simple as pressing a sticker on the bottom of your Crock-Pot to communicate with the Countertop’s NFC chip.
Is it time to make soup? To make your Vitamix smart, pop on a plastic adapter onto the bottom of the blender. Place your Vitamix on the Countertop and begin tossing in your veggies. The Countertop will recognize and adjust your ingredients, giving you the perfect proportionate meal every time. Orange Chef plans to come out with more adapters for more kitchen appliances in the future.
Another cool feature? Fitness trackers such as Jawbone UP can be synchronized to this kitchen gadget. The moment you end your workout, Up will communicate with the Countertop, and let you know what kind of replenishing snack your body needs.
It also serves as a scale, helping you weigh out the correct amount of ingredients and adjusting as you go thanks to its smart load sensors for that purpose specifically.
The Countertop is set to revolutionize the way kitchens operate in the future. It will be ready in Fall 2015 for $199.95.
