Milo Silo
For bulk materials geeks like myself who like LOTS of milo. | |
And waiting 90 odd seconds (the time it takes to half fill an oversize coffee mug with milo from a tin using a spoon, then pour the milk, and heat it up) for that milo-ey goodness is far too long.
The optional extras include a marshmallow dump hopper with fully functioning apron feeder (to reliably
meter out your marshmallows, of course), and the steam-pneumatically conveyed milk pipe, that pre-heats AND rapidly delivers the hot milk.
Suggestions welcome.
mmmmmmmmmmm. Milo.

Heyyy! Milo is GOOD for you! It says so on the tin. |
|
|
It's just like vegetables. |
|

I'm just big boned, anyway. |

Regarding Milo. When I was unfortunate enough to live in Kuala Lumpur I consumed so much of the stuff that I believed that I could roll down hills without bruising. I started to believe it was their national beverage of choice. |

i remember milo fro my time in NZ and
AU. i wasn't terribly impressed with it as a
drink. people did drink gallons of the stuff. |
|
|
here i was thinking you meant Milo from
Catch 22. M & M Corp. and all that. in that
case it should have turrets on top for
attacking your own forces. |

I tried Milo in Indonesia, once. People seemed to like it, probably because of all the commercials that made it sound like a national beverage. |

There are many bulk food dispensers available, both for powders and things like marshmallows. Hot-milk machines are available, too. This is more of a wish than an invention, but maybe I'm missing something. |
|
|
I was thinking of Milo Minderbinder also. In that case, it should also dispense sand instead of milo. |

It's a kind of powdered instant hot chocolate mix--as you may have guessed. I found it to be too weak and too sugary, but I was in Indonesia, where all drinks are sugary. There it was pronounced "Meel-oh" BTW. |
