The best high-tech bartender kit for your home bar

LG HomeBrew

A six-pack from the store may be satisfying, but a home-brewed craft beer is so much better. LG HomeBrew is coming soon, something like the Keurig of kegs with single-use capsules. Not only will you be able to easily make a batch of beer at home, but as it ferments and ages, you can use your app to keep tabs on the "percolating" process. Sure, if you're in the mood for a beer, starting from scratch won't quench your thirst immediately, but that DIY pride will be worth the wait. GearBrain has more on the beer-making system to see.

Coravin Model Eleven

For the true wine connoisseur who cares about quality from cork to "clink," the $1000 Coravin Model Eleven is the smart choice in smart sipping. Bluetooth connected and beyond compare, this wine system does everything from pressurizing to aerating to even providing the perfect soundtrack to set the mood as you sniff and swirl, complete with a display base and carrying case.

Forge Clear Ice

Cubes are so last century. Your drink deserves a sphere of sophistication that only comes from crystal clear ice that's free of impurities and super dense, making each sip supreme. Forge Clear Ice is an expensive, but innovative solution for those who love a wonderful glass of whisky that tastes and drinks like it was intended. This $1500 machine makes perfect globes of ice and can even press custom logos and designs onto them for parties and events. It may be a lot cheaper to freeze some tap water the old-fashioned way, but for those who fancy the finer things in life, Forge Clear Ice is an investment in ice-making.
