MELLOW
Mellow is a smart cooking tool designed to remotely prepare great meals within your daily routine.
Sous-vide is a healthy cooking technique that allows food to cook on its own juices without losing any nutrients. However, it requires a lot of precision, therefore cannot be performed at homes. Mellow is a smart cooking tool designed to make sous-vide fit into your daily routine, because it takes a lot of energy to craft a great meal, when you have to balance dinner, work, and everything else you have going on. Mellow makes it a lot easier by cooking ingredients to perfection while you're away. It takes orders through your smartphone and keeps food cold until it’s the exact time to start cooking. This way, when you want to cook dinner, you can let go of the stress and focus on enjoying yourself. Smartphone control is more than just remote control, it uses artificial intelligence to make suggestions and learn to cook food to your taste.
