About Wild Cook Capsule

Wild Cook-capsule, is een capsule met een verscheidenheid aan natuurlijke ingrediënten en is ontworpen om voedsel te roken en verschillende smaken en geuren te creëren. De meeste mensen geloven dat de enige manier om voedsel gerookt te maken, is door verschillende soorten hout te verbranden, maar de waarheid is dat je je voedsel met veel materialen kunt laten roken en een geheel nieuwe smaak en geur kunt creëren. De ontwerpers realiseerden zich de smaakverschillen over de hele wereld en daarom is dit ontwerp volledig flexibel als het gaat om de bruikbaarheid in verschillende regio's. Deze capsules zijn er in gemengde en losse ingrediënten.

Unique Properties: There is no way to make your food smoked in your kitchen without making a huge mess. To overcome this problem, designers thought of an easier, cleaner and faster way that one can use in the kitchen. Wild Cook capsules can make your food or drink smoked. Most people believe that the only way to make food smoked is by burning various types of wood but the truth is, you can make your food smoked with lots of different natural materials and create a whole new taste and scent. The designers realized the taste differences around the world and that is why this design is totally flexible.
Dimensions & Packaging: 37 mm x 37 mm x 18 mm
Tags: Food, Smoked food, Smoking device, Smoked drink, Smoke flavor, Smoke scent, Beverage, Smoke, Wild cook, Cook
Production Technology: The presented design has two main parts which are the device itself and a capsule that contains natural ingredients with various types.
After putting the capsule inside the device, the ingredients of the capsule will be heat up by hot air, the hot air will cause a smooth burn and smoke will be drawn into the pot and you have your meal smoked.
The bottom of the capsule has a recess that allows the air to circulate inside the capsule better and burn the ingredients in a uniform manner.
Design Challenge: The challenge was to find out about different ingredients for the capsules that the designers could use to smoke the food and the fact that the smoke of different ingredients and their combination can create a variety of choices.
Research: In order to develop this design the designers had to do various researches about the current ways people use to smoke their food and also to study about the disadvantages and weaknesses of them to be able to overcome all of them with this presented design.
Inspiration: The most important fact in people’s everyday life is food. And how to make it more easy and pleasant. Smoking food is the process of flavoring and cooking food. The designers realized that they can create a mixture of flavors by the smoke coming out of natural ingredients for example you can smoke and flavor your food with paprika or onion and they would taste differently. You might cook your food along with various vegetables and they burn a little and the mixture of different ingredients' smoke can create divers flavors and that was the inspiration for designing Wild Cook Capsules.
Project Duration: The project started in 2019.
Operation Flow: The using procedure of this device is fairly simple for everyone with no complications. The designers created a healthy, simple and clean way to smoke food and also they focused on the variety of scents that can be provided. Most devices that are used for smoking food and drink are only meant for direct burn of wood by hand, the presented design has much healthier impact because of the smooth burning procedure and the fact that the burn is caused by hot air and not direct fire. It is important to mention that the recycling process is much easier in comparison to other devices.
