Cryo-Can! v1.0

<p>Is your soda or beer too warm? Do you want a completely over the top way of cooling it down in a hurry? Meet the Cryo-Can! This little baby solves all your beverage can cooling needs.</p> <p>Start by pushing a standard beverage can all the way down inside the Cryo-Can, just like your standard 3d printed coozie. Next, hook up coolant lines of your choice to the entry and exit ports for the Cryo-Can's internal cooling manifolds. Either pump or siphon your coolant through the Cryo-Can and in no time flat, your beverage will be ice cold. The coolant enters through the intake port and is distributed by an internal manifold to 6 helical cooling channels. As it makes it way around the can, the coolant picks up heat and is ejected via manifolds at the top and bottom. The coolant is then routed to the exit port. If you have trouble removing the can push up through the hole in the bottom.</p> <p>The Cryo-Can features helical cooling channels that butt right up against your beverage for maximum cooling effectiveness. There is a inlaid race for seals near the top lip and at the bottom to keep your Cryo-Can from leaking. The entry and exit ports are meant to be threaded into with brass barb fittings which can easily be attached to the flexible tubing of your choice. I recommend printing with a very thick wall, if not 100%, especially around the intake and exit ports. It needs to be strong and watertight. There a high probability that this thing will be used by drunk people.</p> <p>Hardware needed:</p> <p>Small threaded brass barb fitting for hoses.</p> <p>Flexible hose of your choice sized to match the barb fittings.</p> <p>Rubber bands or RTV to craft seals. (depending on the fit of the cans, these may not even be necessary.)</p> <p>Buckets for coolant.</p> <p>Coolants:</p> <p>I recommend ice water with ice cream salt added but you do you.</p> <p>Cheers!</p> Category: Kitchen & Dining
