The keyboard enthusiast community has grown quicker than the fuzz which collects inside your coworkers keyboard and this has led to a multitude of new products to feed their needs. If you started talking about the merits of various types of keycap material just a few years ago you would get some odd looks, today you’ll start a flame war. Awekeys have come up with a new contender for enthusiasts to love or hate, full metal keycaps with no plastic in them whatsoever. double shot pudding keycaps
The caps are made of cupronickel, a mix of copper and nickel and sadly not some sort of metal apple, with a thin nanocoating on the top to protect the metal and give the caps an interesting look and feel.
