    You want 1 push to mean 12 Ozes of beer and for the taps to lockdown at 12am automatically? Bam, they’d do it. In theory at any rate. Truthfully, they never could get the pours perfect. It was actually pretty hilarious in hindsight because they wanted to advertise that they were solving shrinkage and waste lol.

    Um. That should be incredibly easy. Pharmaceutical companies have solved this decades ago. That’s how ever single vial of whatever sterile contents is always exactly perfectly filled. Were they trying to reinvent the wheel or something? Why not just use a normal metering pump?

      Because metering pumps cost more in the short term than custom code, boards, software stacks, and most importantly…consultants.
