Brainstream - Character Collection - BeepEgg Sirene

BeepEgg gets a character. Lifting it up from its mere function, which is frame and base, but soul is given to it by this final shaping. Like a DNS. A gift with identity. With a story. It doesn’t only teach you to boil perfect eggs, but also invites you into the world of an artist. You get to know someone, almost personally. And its high-end components make it a highlight for all senses. Not just for the eyes. And in the end it’s all about the egg again. It’s supposed to taste good, to be boiled on point. Bon appétit.

BeepEgg Sirene - By Cristóbal Schmal

“Sirene” was penned by Cristóbal Schmal. Well, not exactly penned, he uses multiple techniques. Techniques like woodcut or linoleum. Cristóbal Schmal is a Chilean graphic designer, but by now lets his steam off in Berlin. He works for several renowned magazines, which is stressful. But stress triggers him off for his works at times. He also likes independent and freelance works. Talking of free…he’s from the desert. But has a weakness for the ocean. Attracted by its hugeness and mystique. His BeepEgg is an underwater item as well. Literally. His “Sirene” is supposed to bring some fiction into our hectic kitchen life. But the result is based on facts. Promise.

BOILING EGGS THE EASY WAY - [EGG]STREMELY GOOD GIFTS
The singing and floating egg-timer guarantees perfectly boiled eggs and lots of fun. BeepEgg is a precise egg-timer, which is boiled together with the real eggs. Once yolk and egg-white have reached the desired degree of hardness, BeepEgg® will play a tune.

Here is another cool, innovative and fun item that is actually really useful. Do you like your eggs cooked egg-sactly right but have trouble timing them to perfection? The Beep Egg is the solution! The easy way to cook eggs, Beep Egg can sense when the conditions in the pan are just right for an egg to be soft-boiled, medium-cooked or hard-boiled. A temperature sensor detects when the water is boiling and then from that point, a timer will start to count down until the perfect conditions are reached for the ideal egg.Simply put the Beep Egg into the water with your real eggs and cook it in there with them. When the eggs are ready, the Beep Egg will play you a tune!

• "The Wild Rover" for soft eggs
• " Rolling Home" for medium eggs
• "Drunken Sailor" for hard-boiled eggs

When they are done, you lift the Beep Egg out of the water with your now-perfectly boiled eggs, rinse it off and it is ready to be used next time! The Beep Egg is an ideal gift for anyone who hates cooking but has to boil an egg occasionally, or anyone that loves cooking but has so much on the go at once, they need a little help to keep track of it all!

• No more morning disappointments - enjoy your eggs exactly as you want them, every time!
• For those of you with large families with different preferences - use several Egg-Beeps at the same time!

The Egg-Beep will play its melody for 3 minutes, or until cooled off using cold water. When not in use, store it in the fridge to keep it at the same temperature as your eggs. The battery will last for 1-2 years with normal use.
 

Brainstream

BRAINSTREAM is a German manufacturer of “fun & functional” gifts.  The products are creative, funny and all have a high-t[egg] function and unique feature. This mix of solving a problem and causing a laugh makes them ideal gifts.
Everything started in 2000. Dr. Rupprecht Gabriel, a German engineer and entrepreneur, was annoyed by his poorly boiled breakfast eggs.

“Sometimes they were too hard, sometimes too runny, but rarely the way I like them to be”.  His aim was to spare himself that frustration. BRAINSTREAM’s founder and general manager wanted do invent a product, which did the work for him. The result was BeepEgg® - a singing and floating egg-timer. The first BRAINSTREAM product. Then, Gabriel formed a creative team, coming from different backgrounds, to start BRAINSTREAM as an enterprise.
Not a huge assortment, but a small, strong portfolio with products which fit the claim “fun & function” is the goal of the small, family run company. Funny and functional that is our product’s aim. Never simple gimmics or gadgets.

Made in Germany

The small, family run business stands for quality “made in Germany”. Not only is the design and distribution  based in Germany, but also production. This takes place in BRAINSTREAM’s home base in Bielefeld. Even almost all components are purchased from suppliers nearby. Quality and flexibility are essential for BRAINSTREAM products and short lead times can be counted on.
