If the $800 price tag freaks you out, just remember that it costs $500 less than a stainless steel Series 2 Hermes Apple Watch, and will actually make your life and work much easier.Įric J.Grimm is a Sprudge contributor based in New York. The Orion, which won Best New Product in the Coffee Accessories category at Expo, starts shipping in July 2017. “We designed this to hopefully fit on a beautiful café’s countertop,” Tseng says. Quite helpful Beancount Formatter, which can format the whole document, aligning the numbers, etc. It not only allows selecting existing open accounts but also displays their balance and other metadata. Who is the Orion for if not just for me to sit around for hours in my living room watching it dispense beans? The product is geared toward roasters and single cup serve cafes and Acaia wants it on display. Beancount, with syntax checking (bean-check) and support for accounts, currencies, etc. Finally, a manual mode allows the user to totally empty the chamber-the whole thing adds up to an adjustable dose-by-weight coffee portioning system with the modern design touch Acaia is known for (the brand is a two-time Sprudgie Award winner for Best New Product). While the time mode is less accurate, Acaia founder Rex Tseng notes that it is a part of future development for a larger model, which will increase efficiency in coffee packing for roasters. The scale’s weight capacity is 3 kilograms, and every time there’s a new target weight, it records the amount of time it takes to dispense the coffee.Īdditionally, one can use a “time mode” to dispense coffee.

While it didn’t turn me into a swole beast as promised, it was a great way to welcome visitors into my apartment. I haven’t taken the plunge with an Apple Watch, but the desire to sport a hideous device that better allows me to ignore my text messages is real.

Immediately introducing a bean counter to threaten an artistic milieu that hasn’t actually been established as such makes no narrative sense except as an excuse for regular monologues about the need for integrity and the injustices of an increasingly weighted economy.The second excerpt is criticizing the plot of a TV show. The Big Ten’s new TV deal kicks in this year, and things are only going to get worse (or much, much better, if you’re a Big Ten executive or a bean-counter at a Big Ten school): Each school will get $43 million in the first year and could be making $54 million annually by the last year of the deal.This excerpt is about all the employees at a school, including accountants, benefiting from extra money.
