On a marketing note: I get why they've chosen this name, but I think it's a bad idea. It raised all of my snake oil red flags initially.

I checked out the page and it does seem like a real project, and could be pretty cool. But I think attaching a hyperbolic "miracle" name to an otherwise interesting home winemaking device hurts their credibility.

Exactly. I wouldn't be surprised at all if "The Jesus Machine" came out while brainstorming..
Perhaps the company and customers are aware that all supposed "miracles" are actually technology.
