I’ve seen various “charms” that help you keep up with which glass belongs to whom at parties, but most of them only work with stemmed glasses.  What if you aren’t having wine?  How do you identify your soda glass or beer stein or your coffee cup?  It won’t be a problem with the Drink Ink […]

If you have young children who have reached that “I can do it myself” age, you know what a time bomb a gallon jug of milk can be. Install a Magic Tap Automatic Drink Dispenser on the milk jug, and even young children can dispense milk or other beverage without even needing to lift the
