Miller Beer to be First to use Cold Can Technology

**Doctor Feelgood**

The beer can is in for a technology makeover that will shake-up the beverage industry, and itâ€™s being brought to you by a company called Tempra Technology, which has ambitious plans for their cold can technology.

The specially modified cans use proprietary engineering to create a temperature drop that will reduce the I.C. Can contents by a minimum of 30Â° Fahrenheit in just three minutes. When activated, the all natural desiccant contained within a vacuum draws the heat from the beverage through the evaporator into an insulated heat-sink container. It is this patented vacuum-power which lowers the temperature so dramatically and quickly, leaving the beverage inside cold.

I wonder if they use something like peltier-technology in it? Sounds a lot like they would have to use something a peltier lining within the can, to accomplish that feat.

even though this product would demand a large price premium over a traditional can, the convenience factor and bragging rights would make this a must have item.

and exactly how much is this "price premium"? I am NOT paying Guinness prices for piss-water beer

The can is about the size of a 16 oz can and only holds 10.5 oz? Squirrel, please! If I'm forced to buy Miller, I'm going to forego this can and use the extra $3 I save on ice and another case.
