If you like toast, then you'll be interested in the latest Pocket Toaster that enables you to make toast at any time.
It's a simple device that replaces the top pocket on a coat or blazer with one that makes toast. This is an ultra compact instrument, well protected by thin insulation material about
the size of a CD drive, that lets you make a slice of toast whenever you feel like it.
The complimentary bread is a customised size that fits easily into the Pocket Toaster, and can be carried in a side pocket in its special holder.
The toaster's power supply is contained in a waist-coat battery pack that can be used to power other portable items.
Double breasted version makes two slices at once.

Well I think this is a good idea, but most people
think I am crazy anyway! |
|
|
I like toast and I like this idea. There's probably also a
marketing opportunity for artisan bread made to fit the
device (smaller slices for more money). |
|
|
//about the size of a CD drive// - actually, I would
really like a toaster with the same mechanism as a CD
drive, either slot-loading or tray-loading, I don't
mind. CD drives will be completely obsolete in about
10 years, so this would be a nice way to remember
them. |

|
There was an idea for a 5 1/4" pizza oven posted by [half] but it's a dead link now. |
|
|
I like the marketing approach to selling proprietary bread. Similar to razor blades and printer ink, that's where the money is. |
|
|
I think this is brilliant and if someone doesn't bring it to
fruition, I just might. (not really, but it's really a good idea.) |
|
|
Hmmm, where to keep the butter? Butter pocket? Lined with
plastic wrap or some such product. |

"Butter pocket? Lined with plastic wrap ..."

Yes, this - and the bread - perfect use case for pre-cut half-
sized sheets of plastic wrap. I know where you can get some. |
|
|
I think requiring custom-sized bread, while great for
marketing and revenue, is a bad idea in practice. Sized for
regular bread means you can restock anywhere.
And "double breasted" is always better ;-D |

"Sized for regular bread..."

Is there an ISO number, or other standard size documentation
for "regular bread?" |
|
|
Hmmm. Well, processed ham, and processed cheese are supplied in a very similar square form-factor that seems to fit well with the square sliced "bread" retailed by some supermarkets. |
|
|
That might be considered "regular". Legally, it can be called "bread" but its resemblance to anything that any sane person would willingly consume is doubtful. |

Are those cheese-like and ham-like slices the same
size in
US, UK, AUS, CAN, etc? |

We have a bread machine and the loaves are huge,
haven't
bought packaged bread for a long time. And for
making
entirely from scratch - "In America, a 'standard loaf
pan'' is 8-1/2 x 4-1/2 x 2-1/2 inches ... " (link) "...
but
larger loaf pans are not uncommon, either in
stores or for
recipes." So much for standards... |
