Something That Caught Lauren's Eye
This Kickstarter campaign caught my eye for different reasons from the love of my life, Lauren. Although this is not a "food" related project, we thought after the guys have purchased MEATER for themselves, they might as well treat their beautiful soul mate to something special for the holidays (and I mean the Evolution Bra).
And for the ladies, if you want the most comfortable, versatile, and technologically advanced bra, this is it. Check out the Evolution Bra campaign by clicking here.
You helped MEATER get to a million and the Evolution Bra campaign is almost there. Maybe we can give them a little nudge =) Thank you so much!

Another stretch goal reached. Another day at the office.
Wow! You guys are machines: reaching each stretch goal like clock work. Thank you so much for getting the campaign beyond the 550% mark. You guys are the best! Chuck also agrees.
We also want to give a shoutout to the 1200+ backers who participated in the survey. They chose the next stretch goal and software update (after launch).
Thank you guys!
Holiday Card Stretch Goal Unlocked
You did it! Now you can give that special someone the MEATER Holiday Card in lieu of the actual MEATER (arriving soon after). Go ahead, let them know you love them and to please cook your steak medium rare. Enjoy!
Next Stretch Goal
The most popular stretch goal voted in the survey was the exclusive MEATER gift. See the beautiful excel pie chart below:
We're happy to announce, the next stretch goal at $750K is the Kickstarter exclusive gift! We've already started the procurement process for said gift because we know you'll smash through it like all the other stretch goals =)
But what is this gift you ask? Well, that's gonna be a surprise!
Software Feature Survey Results
You spoke, we listened, you voted, and we created a pie chart. The most popular software feature we will add after launch is the Graph and Cooking Log. Take a gander at the majestic pie chart courtesy of excel:
MEATER App Features:
Graph: A visual representation of Time vs. Temperature
Cooking Log: Save your data so you can analyze what went right or what went wrong with your cook. An essential tool to have so you can make improvements on your next cooking project or repeat great results.
ONE passion - ONELID
While MEATER will make you a perfect steak our friends at ONELID will turn your ordinary pots into perfect pots.
ONELID is a universal multifunction lid - cool to the touch, fits most pots and has an integrated strainer.
ONELID was created from our shared passion to make ordinary things just a little bit more clever and a little bit more fun.
With both a MEATER and ONELID your cooking is in safe hands.

...Cuz The MEAT, The MEAT, The MEAT IS ON FIRE!
We are privileged to have such great supporters and appreciate all the feedback we received so far. With over 400 comments and 200 private messages, we answered your questions, added a FAQ section, provided additional product details, and listened to feature and stretch goal suggestions. This has been a great way to interact with you all and has helped us to make MEATER the best possible product it can be.
Now there are still a of couple days left in the campaign. Let's try and break the big round number of $1,000,000. It may seem far away, but with the support we have received these past couple of days, it doesn't seem so impossible anymore.
Getting this great result will really help us with rest of the project and bring MEATER to a wider market. We want you to feel proud when you see it and be able to say you were part of making it happen!
As a backer, you still have hours left to get involved, update or add discounted MEATER products to your reward (send us a private message with your request) and share the campaign with your friends and family.
Let's do this together!
All the best,
Teemu and Joseph

Tick Tock Ya Don't Stop
Like clockwork, you passed the exclusive Kickstarter MEATER gift stretch goal and there's no sign of stopping you. Wow!
We're very happy to unlock the Kickstarter Exclusive Gift for all of our backers. You guys deserve this =)
Let It Go, Let it Go, Can't Hold Us Back Anymore
Just a few days left and we will pass the 1000% funding goal mark! To celebrate this milestone, we will do something fun for the next stretch goal =)
We will both cut a hole in a frozen lake, take a dip, and document the whole event for your entertainment.
You've got to be kidding me =(
Who in their right mind would do that? Nobody except for us, because we are crazy for our backers and cannot thank them enough for their support and love for our project. This is for you guys!
Ice Cube For Your Ice-T?
We all know the hassle of using ice cube trays and ice cube bags. Imagine a container that you can just fill with water, throw into the freezer in any orientation, and when the water is frozen; you can just rotate the lid to dispense ice cubes. Fill - Freeze - Dispense.
We know you are hot for MEATER, now get cool with icebreaker - ice cubes made easy. It is the evolution of the ice cube tray!
The simple, sophisticated ice cube maker will transform your social life! Click here for the campaign.

The MEATER army is growing!
We're now 3800+ backers strong. Thank you everyone for your support so far. But we know there are a lot more out there that will need MEATER so let's keep spreading the word, sharing the link, liking our social media pages and talking about MEATER. You can let them know we still have a few [Early Turkey] Rewards left. Get them before we run out!
Now on to the "meat" of the update:
Where's Teemu?
Teemu is packed and flying to our manufacturer this week, we are starting to prepare for production due to good progress on Kickstarter. We're incredibly excited and thank every one of you because we wouldn't be at this stage without your support.
Naughty or Nice?
Our backers are nice because we know a good percentage of the MEATERs are going to be gifts for significant others. Although MEATER will not be available until after the New Year, wouldn't it be nice to be able to "gift" MEATER this holiday season? Cue the next stretch goal:
In lieu of the real MEATER product shipping early next year, you can gift this card to show what they will be receiving very soon!
We will send the appropriate brochure for each of the MEATER products you've chosen as a reward. Expect a ton of hugs and kisses this holiday season!
There are more stretch goals to come. We are all ears to feedback, wishes, and dreams about MEATER. Keep your stretch goal suggestions coming!
