iZac does not care how attractive you are so do not even attempt to “woohoo” this bartender. iZac is an electrifying machine, the Android Bartender! The barbot was created by Nick Johnson; who was inspired by Evil Mad Scientist Labs’ creation, Drink Making Unit 2.0. Nick was awed by the Drink Making Unit 2.0.; as a follow up, he challenged himself to develop his own version.
If bars own the iZac, would they be able to maintain it without busting their wallets? Nick Johnson took considerable time in determining how the iZac would be able to succeed at its purpose while being easy to maintain. Traditional pumps for the machine are frightfully expensive and impractical. Nick came up with the idea of using a battery powered aquarium pump to pressurize the bottles, lowered the cost and eliminating problems.
The iZac is not plugged straight into an outlet, instead if uses a custom laser-cut pinch-valve designed by Nick Johnson. Pinch valves do not require interrupting the tubing which the liquid flows through. The iZac is food safe. Johnson is determined to bring softdrink style self serve to the local pub.
iZac begins serving a delicious cocktail by choosing a drink from the list provided. You then place your glass onto a scale that measures the amount of liquid that would be appropriate. iZac then activates the aquarium pump and opens the appropriate valve to dispense that liquid gold. Then iZac continues to dispense all the liquid that makes up the drink. Once the barbot is finished dispensing; you take your glass and scream “CHEERS!”
