There’s nothing more dejecting than burning toast. Your eggs come out too runny? No one’s perfect. Pancakes are too crispy? It happens. Burn your toast? Give up on life (or at least the rest of your day). According to the culinary laws of physics, toast is theoretically idiot-proof. It’s supposed to be the one sure thing in one’s breakfast. But, sometimes, the toaster hates you. And, then what’re supposed to do? No one likes black toast. If you eat it, every nasty bite reminds you how much you suck. Throw it out, and now you’re incompetent and wasteful. Fortunately, Aussie appliance company Breville understands how you feel. Okay maybe it’s just me, but their Die-Cast 2-Slice Toaster BTA820XL, a.k.a. the Smart Toaster is the Lebron James of toasters. First off it’s beautiful– a full metal body, slick buttons, and a futuristic blue LED browning indicator that doubles as a countdown timer. But it’s real coolness is in its brains. Not only does it have a one-touch auto lowering system but it also boasts a one-of-a-kind ‘Lift & Look’ feature that actually raises the bread carriage mid-cycle to let you peep your toast’s doneness without resetting the timer. If after the cycle finishes, it needs just a bit more time, there’s actually has a feature called the ‘A Bit More’ function to lower the toast and give it just that. The browning control has a 5 levels and can be adjusted mid-cycle as well. Now, you just have to ask yourself if you’re ready for a toaster that’s smarter than you?
