Finally... A SimpleShot Can-Hugger is here!

Do these things actually work? You bet your cold fingers they do! Some people believe they are used to prevent hands from warming up drinks. Others think the koozie is used to keep hands from getting too cold. In reality, koozies keep drinks cold by protecting against condensation.

These SimpleShot Can Huggers (AKA Koozie, coolie, can hugger, and drink cooler) are foam insulators that perfectly surround a container to keep drinks cold.

Did you know: "In a study published in Physics Today, Dr. Dale Durran, a professor of Atmospheric Sciences at the University of Washington, looked at the effects of condensation on beer warming. He found that the water droplets are, in fact, the reason your drink goes from cool and refreshing to warm and unpleasant when drinking outside.

According to the study, as the droplets form, they produce latent heat or the energy and warming that occurs when water changes to a liquid. When the drink becomes covered with condensation, the energy from the water droplets (or latent heat) gets transferred to the beer inside the can."

In effect, the best way to avoid condensation is to wrap a can hugger around your drink! This will stop the condensation from building in the first place, keeping the can cool and the beer inside even cooler. As Dr. Durran stated, “the most important thing a beer koozie does is not simply insulate the can, but keep condensation from forming on the outside of it.”
