T3 Magazine|April 2017

Everyone Deserves To Let Their Hair Down Once In A While- Even The T3 Staff! So We Set Our Man The Task Of Throwing A Knees-Up For The Rest Of The Team. The Question Is, Could He Find Enough Cool Tech To Keep Them Entertained?

T3 Fights For Its Right To Have A...Tech Party!

Back in the day, all you needed for a good house party was a dansette, a couple of matt bianco Lps and a generous carton of liebfraumilch. but that just doesn’t cut it any more. These days, the kids want cocktails, consoles and karaoke (and if you can throw in a few bags of wotsits, too, that’ll be much appreciated).

So when T3 asks me to throw a (mock) house party for my teammates, i reach for my little black book of gadgets to find the best kit for a domestic blowout. like russ abbot, i want an atmosphere – and i’m going to use tech to help me get it.

WHO’S FOR A TIPPLE?

But I’m also going to use alcohol. Now, I’m not saying you need booze to have a good time (unless you’re a morris dancer), but hey – it gives me the excuse to try out some pretty awesome gadgets.

The first of those is Klarstein’s Stal Beer Tap Dispenser. Art editor Luke looks visibly distressed when he walks into the kitchen to discover that I haven’t laid on any tinnies for the party – but then I show him what this beautiful stainless-steel beast does. Having already inserted a five-litre keg of Czech lager, all I have to do is pull down the tap and out flows the delicious brew. An integrated thermoelectric cooling system keeps the beer refreshingly chilled, while CO2 cartridges inside the machine ensure you get a nice foamy head – something I haven’t had since I fell asleep in the bath.
