New machine chills beverages in 45 seconds

Have you ever wanted a machine that would actually chill your drink for you? Well the technology has been found, and the ‘reverse-microwave’ has been created! This machine was created by V-Tex, a United Kingdom company, and funded from the European Union.

The creation cools drinks in all kinds of containers, including wine bottles and soda cans, from room temperature to a low of four degrees in a matter of seconds. The drink, once put into the machine, is rotated at a low speed in water to keep the beverage from fizzing while the water quickly brings down its temperature.


According to V-Tex, their machine uses around 80 percent less energy than standard machines used in grocery stores and markets to keep beverages cool. A commercial product is currently being used in retail outlets across the UK, but a domestic product is currently being created for the average household to purchase. The V-Tex site even has a prototype gallery!
