Kegbot meausres your beer consumption

This is the post for those people who consume beer too much, this is the problem of whole world and they have no tool to stop this. Here I am going to share the information about a gadget named as kegbot, which will not only measure your beer mugs (how many you have already filled with beer) but also it will enable you to compare with your friends to identify the top drinker. This project is running since 2003 and since then it is being improved in accuracy as well as features.

Kegbot Kegerator interface

                                                      Kegbot is a combo of both hardware and software as well. It has sensors which will pass the information to your app which is installed in your tablet and also an online database, using which you can compare yourself with others. Lets have a look at the Kegbot’s features and how it can be used.

                             How kegbot works?

This works on the simple principle that how much your tap pour in a unit time and for how much time the tap was opened by multiplying this it can give you results and it also counts the number of times you open the tap. Thus giving you the nice stats which you can use for further consumption, this may help in controlling your drinking habit because drinking too much beer in certainly not good for health and you should minimize the time for which your tap was opened and number of times too.

                             Features of Kegbot

There is not only the volume of beer consumption that you can measure with Kegbot but there is more that you can do with Kegbot and the features of Kegbot are –
