Neat trick for coolers...
I watched a Mthbusters that I had missed yesterday which tested the
fastest way to cool beer. So I tried the experiment myself yesterday with a couple of Playmate coolers. First cooler had a six pack of Diet Pepsi, ice and salt water. I used about a 1/4 box of salt on the ice and in the second cooler a six pack of Diet Pepsi with just ice. I put both coolers on the rear deck, in the sun, of my Ranger at 6 PM. As expected, the ice/salt combination cooled the soda to 36 degrees F in roughly fifteen minutes which matches the Mythbusters experiment. As of 10 PM last evening, the ice only soda only reached 45 degrees. However, the interesting piece of this was this morning. The ice/salt water combination over night kept the soda cooled and as of ten minutes ago, the water was at 50 degrees F. The straight ice cooler water was at 62 degrees. Cool huh? Get it - cool? |

You should have taken the temp of the salt water and fresh water last night during the experiment. I guess the salt allows the water to stay colder in that cooler. |

Ever make ice cream in an old fashioned, hand cranked freezer? It works much better if you add rock salt to the ice packed around the canister. A pile of ice cubes will contain a lot of air pockets and that air will never be as cold as the ice itself. By accelerating the melt with salt, the pile of ice cubes more quickly becomes brine. As your experiment illustrates, brine is denser than a pile of ice cubes and that allows it to maintain temperature more effectively. The melting of the cubes also releases the cold temperatures stored throughout the shape, rather than merely the cold temperature stored on the faces of the cube. I wonder why somebody doesn't make sal****er ice cubes? Freshwater freezes at zero degrees centigrade, but depending on the amount of salt in the water sal****er can resist freezing down to about -20 centigrade. While a salt water ice cube would really screw up a drink, ice used in coolers and other applications where it is not imbibed or consumed would be much colder if made from salt water than when made from fresh. I guess that once made it would be more expensive to transport and store sal****er ice cubes....the trucks and freezers would need to be considerably colder to keep them frozen....so that's probably one of many reasons. |

Nuts with those idiots! Haven't they ever heard of "dry ice"?
A friend of mine up north used to work in a meat processing plant, and if he was wanting to have a party, cook out, whatever, he'd bring home a chunk of dry ice. Fill the cooler half full of water, throw in the beer/ soda, make usre it was all submerged well, then throw in the ice, and let it boil. short moments later, you had very chilled goods. Co2 fire extinguishers work in a pinch. but you ahve to rince the cans off well though.

Co2 fire extinguishers work in a pinch. but you ahve to rince the cans off well though. At $40 per extinguisher to cool a six pack, the salt idea is much more economical. And not as effective. |

They cool down the place touching the ice, and then slowly melt. The salt lowers the freezing temperature to less than 29 degrees and all that ice melting takes up a huge amount of heat energy. Ice going from frozen to liquid state gives up a, if I remember correctly 100 calories per gram when changing state. To raise the liquid water one degree C only takes 1 calorie per gram. So the ice melting the ice sucks up lots of the heat from the cans. |

Yep - do it all the time. And submarines have screen doors. ;-) I'm serious. We have an oak bucket with the SS insert and the churner with four speeds depending on how much air you want in the ice cream. I get the cream from a local farmer. We can make a gallon at a time. Ain't nothing like home made ice cream. With fresh cream - straight from the cow - well, not straight, but you get my point. Yum, sounds great. You'll have to teach me how to do it. We just bought a milk shake maker, the old fashion bullet looking kind, have not dialed it in yet, might just need better ice cream ;) |
