Silicon Valley’s Cana Technology is coming out with what it says is the world’s first countertop molecular beverage printer, designed to give people any beverage, anytime.

The result of three years of research and development, the beverage printer – about the size of a toaster oven ­– can produce thousands of beverages, from cocktails to hard seltzers to juice, to coffee. Cana Technology says that sugar, alcohol levels, portion size and vitamins can be customised to customers’ preferences.

Cana says that its technology can save packaging and water by reducing the number of compounds needed to make a beverage and eliminating shipping.

“The food and beverage industry needs to be reimagined so that the world can escape carbon-intensive, trash-generating, 20th century centralized systems of production,” says Cana CEO Matt Mahar, who previously led teams for Vivint Smart Home and Nike. “Our vision at Cana is to make the global beverage industry sustainable with molecular printers in every home, so people can get any drink they want, any time they want – without torching the planet.”
