In the Jetgiller cartoon, we were witnessing the life of the Jetgil family, who could get whatever food they wanted and drink whatever they wanted by pressing a single button. While the folding handheld flying car in the same cartoon is not very realistic, it may not be too far off to get access to the drink we want at the push of a button.
Everything we see on Earth is made up of atoms and molecules. In other words, if we can arrange atoms and molecules correctly, we can make copies of anything we want. This is exactly what the American company Cana claims.
The machine we can drink whatever we want: Could it be real?
According to the California-based firm’s claim, it will be possible to “make thousands of different drinks with the world’s first molecular beverage printer.” It will be possible to use this printer for water, tea, coffee, soda, all kinds of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. Deliveries will take place in early 2023.
Cana One, a countertop beverage printer model similar to capsule coffee machines, was announced by Cana in an official promotion yesterday. Instead, the device will feature the Cana One component cartridge. The beverage we choose from the device’s extensive beverage list will be created using the molecules in this cartridge.
Stating that they have been examining the molecular structure of beverages and flavors for three years, the company states that Cana scientists decompose the molecules in thousands of different flavors and essences. They also underline that the cartridge is long-lasting. According to their claims, it will not be necessary to constantly change cartridges.
Although the company’s claims are almost too good to be true, the company does not stop there. According to Cana, it will be possible to customize drinks in terms of sugar, caffeine, alcohol level. There will also be a PIN code so that children cannot make harmful drinks.
Those who want to buy Cana One need to pay a reservation fee of 99 dollars in advance. After that, the price of the device will be $ 499 for the first 10 thousand orders. Those who want to buy a Cana One after the first 10 thousand models will have to pay $ 799. Cartridge replacement will be free, but a fee will be charged for each beverage requested.
Cana One claims to use top quality ingredients in its recipes. They also underline the future of device-specific beverages. Maybe Cana One can be the first step of one of humanity’s solutions in scenarios such as the water crisis.
