Show #1838 Thursday July 1st 2021 Independent Show 317 

Wow! We're in year 16 of The Giz Wiz Show! (The first Giz Wiz Show – called The Daily Giz Wiz back then – was February 20th 2006!) If it wasn't for our loyal supporters, the Giz Wiz Show would be gone. If you'd like to support OMGchad & DickDe in our independent venture (we pay for everything ourselves, including travel) just click the Patreon link at the top of our show web page: http://www.gizwiz.tv/

Yes, I went to a live in-person trade show; the first one in 15 months! It was the Housewares Summer Preview. So this week we finish our look at new gadgets for the kitchen and even a new accessories line for the doggie set!

We'll start with the perhaps the most expensive, deluxe cappuccino maker I've seen at a show. It's the Jura Z10.  
 
First, a bit of info about Jura. I've seen and talked about their machines for years, but never knew they sold them in large numbers. Like 448, 000 coffee machines last year alone! Now JURA has introduced the new Z10 model, which offers not only hot-brewed coffee but also cold brew offerings at the touch of a button. This doubles the range of specialties available and opens up a whole new dimension in the enjoyment of coffee. Here are a few of the operating and programming highlights. It starts with a 4.3” touchscreen color display and lets you save, copy and personalize products with memory for different family members. Plus: Programmable and individually adjustable amount of water. Programmable and 10 individually adjustable coffee strength levels. Programmable amount of milk / milk foam with 10 programmable milk / milk foam temperature (Levels). 3 Programmable brewing temperature levels. Even 3 programmable temperature hot water levels. There's also a Product Recognizing Grinder (P.R.G.), which recognizes the chosen specialty and instantly and precisely adjusts the fineness of grind accordingly. It makes 38 kinds of coffee concoctions, so you know it's not inexpensive. MSRP $3999.99 or about $4400 as you'll see in the video. It's not for sale in US till the fall.
