Hi Kegland when are your RAPT Fermenters going to be available for purchase please Im waiting on one
Yes we feel that this is one of the most exciting products on the horizon. The
RAPT Fermentation Chamber doesn't have a release date yet but to give you some idea how far we are away:
1. The main body of the
chamber is complete however the plastic cover for the top has not been finished yet. This will take about 6-8 weeks to complete this injection mould.
2. The electronics have been made and already started to print the PCBs in preparation.
3. Firmware has got to a stage where it's already working and over the air updates are working. With that said this model has been designed so the software will can be updated over time and the updates to the firmware will be pushed to the
chamber in future as we bring out other stuff that will talk to the
chamber. So this means people who purchase the first units will still be able to take advantages of new features moving forward.
4. The front door still needs some work hopefully this will be completed in the next month and these last parts of the injection moulded door will then go to tooling. This will take another 2 months. We do already have the glass door available but we will release this as an upgrade. the standard fridges will have foam filled brushed stainless door.
So in summary we will probably have a working model by June/July but then we will have to get the electrical approvals. The electrical approvals will take about 2 months.
So based on all these factors it's likely that we have this product finished before Christmas this year.
