CryoPod Insulated Can Holder Freezable Parametric

CryoPod — the can holder that gets colder 🥶

🔥 NEW — 🛶 Take your CryoPod paddling: SUP CUP Pro (read below)

Parametric version is here! Set your own can diameter and height and CryoPod fits any drink, anywhere in the world. Just hit Customize , enter two numbers, and print. More below.

Summer is coming and our favorite drinks just can’t survive the heat ☀️. Standard insulated holders only slow things down — they don’t actually cool. I wanted something that actively keeps the can cold for hours , not just “less warm.”

So I built CryoPod and, spoiler, it works great!

The idea is simple: a double-wall can holder with a hollow chamber you fill with water and pre-freeze. Drop in your can → the ice melts slowly around it → your drink stays frosty cold for hours, even on the hottest days.

🎛️ Parametric version — fits ANY can or bottle

Your drink isn’t in the preset list below? No problem. The parametric version lets you set your can diameter and height , so CryoPod fits literally any can or bottle in the world. 🌍

1. Customize your size

Click Customize , then enter two numbers:

- Diameter — measure the widest part of your can/bottle body (not the rim) - Height — the full height of the can/bottle Just enter your can’s real size. A 1.5 mm clearance is already built into the model, so the can drops in and out easily — no need to add anything yourself. (Want a snugger fit with less rattle? Enter a diameter ~1–1.5 mm smaller than your real can. Want it looser? Enter slightly bigger. Your call.)

2. Print it

Once you’ve set your size, you download a single 3MF with everything in it. To print:

- Open the 3MF in Bambu Studio - Right-click the model - Split → To Objects - Arrange the parts on the plate, remember to flip the lid so the flat face is on the build plate, and set up the slicer This separates the pod, lid, and ring so you can print each component.

⚙️ Print settings — IMPORTANT for watertightness

The parametric file won’t carry over my tuned profile, so set these yourself or it may leak:

- Walls / perimeters: 5 or more - Bottom layers: 6 or more This makes the pod essentially solid-wall with no infill = no leaks. Skipping this is the #1 cause of a leaky pod, don’t skip it.

Supported can & bottle sizes

Each CryoPod is sized to fit a specific diameter — pick the model that matches your favorite drink. If your can or bottle isn’t listed, just measure the diameter (most production tolerances are within ±1mm) and match it to the closest pod.

Model Inner Ø Fits

🥤 Classic 66 mm 330ml EU cans (Coca-Cola, Fanta, Sprite, most European beers) • 12oz US standard cans (Budweiser, Pepsi, Mountain Dew)

⚡ Slim 53 mm 250ml EU slim cans (Red Bull, Monster slim, energy drinks) • 8.4oz US slim cans (Red Bull US)

🍻 Sleek 57 mm 12oz US sleek cans (Coors Light, Miller Lite sleek, Bud Light sleek) • Hard seltzers (White Claw, Truly, High Noon) • 12oz craft beer sleek format

🍺 Tallboy 66 mm 16oz US tallboy cans (Modelo, Pabst Blue Ribbon, Coors Light tallboy, Stella Artois tallboy, craft beer 16oz) • 50cl EU cans (large-format European beers)

🍾 LongNeck 60.5 mm 33cl EU longneck bottles (Heineken, Becks, Corona, Peroni, Stella Artois) • 12oz US longneck bottles (Bud, Yuengling, Sam Adams, most craft beers ISB standard)

💡 Quick check : measure your can or bottle at its widest body section (not the top or bottom rim). If it’s within 1mm of one of the diameters above, that pod will fit comfortably. The CryoPod has about 1-1.5mm of clearance built in for easy insertion and removal.

⚠️ Note : Classic and Tallboy share the same diameter (66mm) — the only difference is height. If you have both 330ml and 16oz cans, you may want both pods to get the best fit for each.

Print tip : to keep the pod watertight, the profiles use 5+ walls and 6+ bottom layers (basically solid wall, no infill). This avoids the slight inter-layer porosity that FDM prints can have. If you customize the profile, keep those counts high.

Why doesn't it cover the whole can? Deliberate choice: keeps the pods lighter (less weight, less print cost/time) and lets you grab your drink without flipping the pod over. It works surprisingly well even with the top exposed, most of the cooling happens around the body where the liquid is.

How it works

- Pop off the top cap with a satisfying snap - Fill the chamber with water up to the internal indicator ring (more on this below ⚠️) - Click the cap back on and place the pod upright in the freezer overnight - Drop your can in and head out 🎒 - Enjoy ice-cold drinks for 2 to 4 hours depending on ambient temperature 🌡️ The water chamber holds around 130-140 ml of ice — that’s a lot of cooling capacity for a pod that fits in your hand

Why CryoPod

- Actively cools, not just insulates — most can holders slow the warming, this one fights it - Three sizes ready to go — Classic and Sleek for 330ml, Slim for 250ml - Snap-fit top cap with diamond knurling — solid grip, satisfying click, no rattling, no twisting - Decorative ring insert in a contrasting color — slides in from below, holds in place by friction, no glue needed. - No supports needed — print profile is ready and optimized - About 4 hours per pod on standard settings - Reusable forever — just refreeze and go again 🛶 Take your CryoPod paddling: SUP CUP Pro

CryoPod now has an official home on the water. Adequate Labs designed the SUP CUP Pro , a seriously very well-engineered cup holder for stand-up paddleboards and kayaks and built it to fit the CryoPod too!

It mounts to your board’s existing bungee cords with a twist-lock base , so it stays put even if the board flips. It also has a phone and sunglasses module, an open-source accessory system, and a connector to link two cups together when you’re paddling with someone.

How to use them together:

- Print the Classic or Duo profile of the SUP CUP Pro (the Mini doesn’t fit a CryoPod) - Print the Classic Pod profile here - Freeze your CryoPod as usual, drop it in, and paddle away Hours of cold drinks and paddling. Go give Adequate Labs some love, the twist-lock design is genuinely clever. 🙌

About the seal

Right now there is no TPU gasket — I’m working on it for the next version 🔬. The current design has a snug snap-fit that holds water well as long as the pod stays upright . So:

- ✅ Keep the pod vertical in the freezer - ✅ Keep it vertical in your bag (carabiner-friendly attachment points coming in the next revision) - ❌ Don’t shake it or flip it upside down while filled — small drops may escape from the snap joint Once a proper TPU gasket is ready, I’ll release v2 with full waterproof rating. For now, “splash-resistant” is the honest claim 🌦️
