Hi guys! Video today is a little longer that my usual and I hope you will enjoy it. I love ice so much I could have make it at least double HAHA! Let me know if you'd like to see more ice tricks on this channel. Have a great day. Cheers!!!
I was thinking, the half dome is cool, but if you use a garlic press and shaved ice you can make 'perfectly unclear' ice to contrast with your perfectly clear ice. I'd really like to see you do that actually
Pretty much the setup I use for ice - guests love the big clear cubes. Especially when you add a little something interesting to the middle of the cube.
This video is the best at explaining the tricks of the trade. Thank you for detailing the process and showing that a block of ice is part of the presentation and taste of the cocktail.
I love to hand cut it too. But now I actually lack space for bigger cooler in my freezer so this option is the best for me. But I miss making large hand cut ice sphere!
I clicked the link to buy a couple of trays used in your video and they are currently all sold out. I will continue to check back to make a purchase. Thanks for the video
it does enhance the mineral concentration though. you have the feeling it helps because it freezes slower but if you adjust your freezer temperature, you shouldn't have to waste your time with that step.
I just have to say you blew my mind on 2 different subject matters. I have made clear ice before but I have never use the plastic template on top of my cooler. I am mind blown. The second tip was the old fashion mixed with rum. I can’t wait to debut that on our channel and I’m definitely going to be giving you credit for shedding light I wanna drink I have never heard it ...And you better believe we “subscribed”
I'm new to the channel, but I love your Halcyon (I think) knife. Cutting with good knives completely changes your experience in the kitchen and his are certainly some of the best.
Really like that dICE mould, and of course they're sold out. I've been making ice in a camping cooler, and it works, but it is a bit of work hacking or sawing out the cubes. Great content, I like your passion for making great cocktails and ice :)
Thank you! Means a lot! Yeah I know it sucks they sold out. I approached some other brands to test other molds to see if I can find another one to suggest to you guys. So part 2 of this video is gonna happen.
I reached out to them and unfortunately, their facilities including all their stock and tools burned down a couple months back. They are in the process of setting everything back up, but it could be a while before they are fully operational again.
Thanks for the video. I mess around a lot with ice and that mold is one of the easiest I've used. Very easy to get the ice out of the mold and makes great, square, clear cubes.
Thanks! That barspoon was custom made by a friend of a friend and tbh the price was complete non sense lol not sure you’ll still want it if I tell you 😂
Very nice, sir. Don't think I'll be purchasing the ice press any time soon, but very informative. I may steal your shaved ice cup, though. Thank you. Be safe.
This is nice if you really want to impress. I'm not sure I like my friends enough to spend > $500 on ice presentation but if you have the money, go for it. The $10 igloo works great for for clear ice but the shapes will be random.
HAHAHA!!! And what about yourself? Really though, I understand the investment is not for everyone, especially when as you say, the rustic method works just fine. But still, when you get really into something, I guess it's fun to go the extra mile. Speaking for myself. Thanks for watching mate. Cheers!
First of all, great video. Perfect camera work and perfect barteding&ice making skills. I got a question, what do you call the old-fashioned you made in the video? I personally didn't study French (even though I had a chance in my secondary school ,,, but I chose Japanese to learn) so it's sometimes challenging to understand your French pronunciation. Anyway, great video, great channel, I'm watching almost every video you uploaded from the recent ones, cheers!
Of course! But in a close container if you don’t want the ice to taste like what you have in your freezer. And when you store them, if they are wet, they will stick together afterwards. It’s not a big deal since they will be easy to separate. You can avoid that by drying the cube with a cloth before putting them back in the freezer.
Super cool tips!!! I had a method for clear ice, but you just made it easier!! Will definitely try! Btw when I saw that logo on the barspoon I thought I recognized it, then you said Fairmont and I was happy to see ghat I have super cool colleagues like you man! Fairmont Le Montreux Palace here ✌✌ (Switzerland)
Another great video. I always liked the idea of stamped ice but I was thinking you need to warm the stamp (since some people use a torch to heat it). It is great that it works just by applying some pressure. Cheers and have a great weekend!
Thanks again my friend! If you make several in a row you will have to heat it eventually because the metal will be cold but as long as it's warmer than ice, it works.
Thanks for the great video for a thorough explanation. How do you store the cubes once extracted? I have several sealed containers in our freezer for the clear(rustic cut 😉) and the fog ice. After making 2-3 batches it last me several weeks/month. Like making the long columns for nice G&Ts really wows the guests.
I have the perfect size topperware. the 8 cubes fit like if it was made for it. I feel so good when I have clear ice back up in my freezer. I'm so weird HAHA!!!
Unfortunately the dIce mold has been sold out for a long time now. Here are two options that work almost the same geni.us/VbiaBu geni.us/eR7rXM I hope this helps. Cheers
Hi. Thank for the info. Now I can make clear ice for my bar. But, my small cooler box got crack after 1 month of use. (Crack always at the bottom inside) This is my 4th cooler box. I used 3 different brand of coolerbox already. What am I doing wrong? How to not crack the ice box? Thnk you
Unfortunately, this was a custom made item. Send me a DM on instagram if you really want it, I'll try to reach the guy who made it and see if he can make some more. It cost about 400$ though LOL
It was customly made by a friend. He ordered a Japanese barspoon with interchangeable tips and he made the stamp that fitted the screw at the end of the spoon. It cost me 400$ lol
Hey thanks! Well exactly like that will be tough because it was custom made. But if you look for cocktail ice stamp online you can get some pretty cool stuff.
HAHA!!! As I said it was made custom and I paid about 400$ US for it and the 3 ice stamp. If you are intersted anyway, send me a DM on Instagram and I'll send you the link of the guy who made it for me. Cheers!
Oh no! Really? Well I wintersmiths make some very good quality molds but they don't yield as many cubes. Look at @vladslickbartender 's latest ice video. ruclips.net/video/MG-gYMprGcQ/видео.html The mold he uses makes 4 cubes. It looks pretty legit. Tell him I sent you there ;)
Sorry! apparently they didn't restock in a long time. I'm even wondering if they are still in business. For the Ice stamp, look Atmos Ice press. I know they are doing great product as I have some too.
@@TrufflesOnTheRocks Seems their inlays and small cube molds are still in stock but not their complete boxes. Seems weird. Was really excited to find a clear ice mold with reliable distribution in Europe, but I guess we've got a bit to wait. Here's hoping they are just having trouble as a result of the pandemic.
Checking back in with you. Hope you are staying healthy during the pandemic! Would you please share where to purchase the bar spoon with changeable ice stamps? :-)
Unfortunately, this was custom made. I bought a japanese barspoon with an interchangeable piece at the tip of it. Then I sent it to someone who make icestamp in Europe and he made the custom tip with an ice stamp that fit the barspoon. I can't get a hold on him anymore. Keep in mind, this was a 400$ project. If you really want it and don't care for the price tag, send me a DM on Instagram and we'll see if I can help you more.
It was custom made by a gentlemen in Europe. It cost me 400$. If you’re interested, send me an email at info@trufflesontherocks.com and I’ll hook you up with him
Unfortunately they seem like out of business since the beginning of the pandemic. But here are some options I've tried and liked. Cheers! geni.us/eR7rXM geni.us/VbiaBu
The Coleman thing looks like it's just styrofoam? Will try this with a normal styrofoam box and the molds I have, because 20€s for only a box is a bit expensive! Besides, it looks fascinatingly easy
Boiling water will help removing some of the oxygen in it but you enhance the concentration in minerals so no, it doesn't help much. Don't waste your time.
I had it custom made from a guy in Europe. It legit cost me 400$ LOL But I'm working on a collab with another company much more affordable. When I will have tested it, I will make a part 2 to this video. Cheers!
Great channel, I also follow you on Instagram, I came across your YT thanks to Steve the Bartender :) Just made some grenadine and trying out your 5 recipes for the classics that contain grenadine... Anyway, I have 2 dIce molds, small and large cubes, plus a few different setups for directional freezing, they all did a great job at my old location. Ever since I moved to a new house, not anymore... Crap ice starts already in the 'cubed' part of the mold. I've been told we had bad water at the new location, I am using a water softener here, have tried mineral water, boiled water... I have also put extra insulation on all but the top side of the mold, nothing has worked. My freezer is set to -18 C, could that be the problem? Thank you in advance for your and anyone else's comment!
Thanks for following us on both plateforms :) Your problem sounds to me like it's due to the "hard' water you may have. Meaning that your water has a lot of minerals and it makes for a lot of impurities when it freezes. But the fact your freezer is at -18 may affect that as well. If it freezes fast, the air bubbles and sediments don't have the time to escape the process. I would recommend to try with filtered water from the market and lower your freezer to maybe -14. Let me know how it turns our. Cheers!
I get pretty much all my gear at www.alambika.ca I'm working on an affiliate program with them and I will be able to give 10% off with my link. I'll keep you posted soon. Should be working within a week. Cheers!

Truffles On The Rocks thanks for the reply!! Unfortunately, I’m unable to find the glass cobbler that I always see you using! The link doesn’t seem to work for me either. If you have the ability to link directly to it, let me know!! Love your content man, appreciate it!
Unless your using water from a lake, only impurities you will have at the bottom of your frozen tank will be air pockets so it will melt faster butu it won't affect the quality of your drink if you can control your dillution. Cheers!
Oh man this is a fantastic video! When I saw your other dICE video I loved it and got me an unit (which I loved) but I thought I was doing something wrong because my ice wasn’t 100% transparent, but like 90% instead. Now I see that it is apparently normal, glad to know is not my fault. Also I love your bar spoon with ice stamp, damn how I would love something like that, do you know if there’s a way to get one of those online? I know you said is custom made but hey I had to ask 😅! Thanks again for this amazing video!
You can fine tune your technique with dICE by adjusting the temperature of your freezer, breaking the bubbles in the water tank before placing it in the freezer, things like that but for home purposes, I think the result is perfectly fine with its little imprefections. For the barspoon, its a guy in Europe that hangs out with Eddis from @cocktails_for_you who made it for me. It was the one and only he ever made. He makes ice stamp (or used to make, I don't know if he's still operating) and I asked him if he could make something very special... he said yes. He bought a barspoon online. The tip was interchangeable so it had a screw at the end. So he engeneered pieces that fit that screw and made an ice stamp that fitted. Was pretty complicated but was worth it. With that video, I realize I should ask him if he still makes them... I'm sure he would sell some because I got a lot of questions aboutit.
Truffles On The Rocks oh man that sounds awesome and you definitely deserve that special thing, your cocktails are beautiful. I guess I’ll just try to get a regular customizable stamp online, that looks dope! Thanks for your videos man
I've never seen an ice stamp like that before. Would any kind of metal work as one? I assume it's just heat conductivity and pressure that makes them work?
Love this video and have been working on my clear ice skills. Can you mention where I can purchase the bar spoon with interchangeable ice stamps? Happy to send you my email if you prefer private mentioning of this.
Sorry I miss you message. Just answered your latest one. But if you want to send me your email, do it through this address. info@trufflesontherocks.com Cheers!
Great tutorial! I want to find the bar spoon with the impression. I cannot find the link for it. Can you send it? I really enjoy your channel. Very fun and informative.
Yo, this is great! Call me crazy but the Jack Daniels Single Barrel Proof taste like Bananas, and the Plantations Pineapple Rum taste, well like Pineapple, that would be a pretty crazy variation? I can't wait to go home and try it!!!
Wow! Thanks for this! I live with my family of 4 and unfortunately I don’t have the freezer space for a big cooler and if I’m being honest, cutting my own ice probably isn’t the best idea cause I’m so clumsy😂. Saw the site, and it seems like all their products are sold out😔 looks like we’ll have to wait for the restock!
I didn't expect them to be out of stock. I sent them a message to see if they are planning on restocking anytime soon. Will keep you guys informed as soon as I get more details. Cheers! And yeah, if you are clumsy, don't play with ice pics ;) HAHA!!!
I reached out to them and unfortunately, their facilities including all their stock and tools burned down a couple months back. They are in the process of setting everything back up, but it could be a while before they are fully operational again.
Just so everyone knows.. their is a machine that makes clear ice cubes. Luma Comfort Portable Clear Ice Maker While it wont do LARGE ice so you can make balls.. it will do standard clear ice if thats all you want. They sell it on amazon.
Yeah well water can contain 0.01% of oxygen dissolved but with tap systems, that are under lots of air pressure, the air content can be way higher. It is not dissolved oxygen but trapped oxygen. The reason why, if you leave a glass of water sitting on the counter, it will have a lot of little bubbles after a while. So that trapped air, if you leave your water sitting on the counter, will loose some of it which will result in a clearer ice.
Your suggestions for getting the oxygen out of water will be ineffective. If you want to get the oxygen out you could boil the water and let it cool or use a 'vacuuvin' type device for putting the water under vacuum and Degas it that way. Leaving it on the counter or stirring it will not do anything to Degas it.
He doesn't have nearly enough info for 12 minutes. A lot of uninteresting fluff. I don't even care what tips he has at the end. Only made it to 3 mins in

Can you share where to get the changeable bar spoon?! #musthave
@@ivytreadwell-garcia567 It was customnly made. Sorry I can't help you with a fast link. It also cost me like 400$ dollars LOL
@@TrufflesOnTheRocks That's so worth it! Super clever idea 👏🏽 Maybe one day I'll be that cool. Thanks for the great videos :)
Do you have a link for that ice mold? The dICE?
Pretty much the setup I use for ice - guests love the big clear cubes. Especially when you add a little something interesting to the middle of the cube.
True! We used to make it with orchids at the bar I work... it was our top seller cocktail just because of the ice HAHA!!!
Man's not only fun to watch. He a damn techie when it comes to the bar. Some of this tools 😍 that barspoon. Jesus
Agreed - an artist but with the technical chops.
Thanks a lot! Really appreciate :) Cheers!
Thanks!

Love that ice stamp. Adds such a nice touch to the cocktail!
The attention to details makes a huge difference right?
Very Nice. I usually hand cut everything. I will have to try a couple of your techniques.
I love to hand cut it too. But now I actually lack space for bigger cooler in my freezer so this option is the best for me. But I miss making large hand cut ice sphere!

Thanks! Glad to have you on board now! Happy to see I'm not the only one who hates to waste precious stuff! Cheers!
I've been looking around for the solution to this for a year or two and FINALLY found your video. THANK YOU! I now have CLEAR ICE!!
Thank you! Means a lot
I’m a bartender and this helped me a lot with making proper clear ice 👌🏻 thanks dude
Thanks! Means a lot! Cheers!
Good work. Great ice. And nice mold.
Thanks!
Boiling the water prefreezing also helps expel oxygen in solution. Awesome techniques btw!
it does enhance the mineral concentration though. you have the feeling it helps because it freezes slower but if you adjust your freezer temperature, you shouldn't have to waste your time with that step.
I love fabulous cubes! Good large cubes so that they melt much more slowly!!
That’s the spirit!!! Cheers :)
Love this! Not seen the ice stamp before - very cool!
Thanks! Cheers!
@@TrufflesOnTheRocks Where did you get a custom stamp made?

I've been told we had bad water at the new location, I am using a water softener here, have tried mineral water, boiled water... I have also put extra insulation on all but the top side of the mold, nothing has worked. My freezer is set to -18 C, could that be the problem? Thank you in advance for your and anyone else's comment!
Thanks for following us on both plateforms :) Your problem sounds to me like it's due to the "hard' water you may have. Meaning that your water has a lot of minerals and it makes for a lot of impurities when it freezes. But the fact your freezer is at -18 may affect that as well. If it freezes fast, the air bubbles and sediments don't have the time to escape the process. I would recommend to try with filtered water from the market and lower your freezer to maybe -14. Let me know how it turns our. Cheers!
@@TrufflesOnTheRocks Will try that, thank you!
Please fix the link to the ice press. It asks for a password when it loads the page. I’m interested in ordering one.
Ok I’m sorry about that. I don’t know what is happening. Will let you know here as soon as it is fixed. Thank you for letting me know
I just click the link and it didn’t ask me anything. Could you please send me a screen shot at info@trufflesontherocks.com please?
It's still PW locked. Is there another place to purchase an ice press?

Truffles On The Rocks thanks for the reply!! Unfortunately, I’m unable to find the glass cobbler that I always see you using! The link doesn’t seem to work for me either. If you have the ability to link directly to it, let me know!!
Love your content man, appreciate it!
J'ai soif 🤤
#boulevardier mon ami!
If the scrap ice has all the impurities from the water aren’t you adding concentrated impurities to your cocktail by using it to mix or shake?
Unless your using water from a lake, only impurities you will have at the bottom of your frozen tank will be air pockets so it will melt faster butu it won't affect the quality of your drink if you can control your dillution. Cheers!
@@TrufflesOnTheRocks ok, thanks
@@NicholasFiennes Pleasure sir!
Oh man this is a fantastic video! When I saw your other dICE video I loved it and got me an unit (which I loved) but I thought I was doing something wrong because my ice wasn’t 100% transparent, but like 90% instead. Now I see that it is apparently normal, glad to know is not my fault. Also I love your bar spoon with ice stamp, damn how I would love something like that, do you know if there’s a way to get one of those online? I know you said is custom made but hey I had to ask 😅! Thanks again for this amazing video!
You can fine tune your technique with dICE by adjusting the temperature of your freezer, breaking the bubbles in the water tank before placing it in the freezer, things like that but for home purposes, I think the result is perfectly fine with its little imprefections. For the barspoon, its a guy in Europe that hangs out with Eddis from @cocktails_for_you who made it for me. It was the one and only he ever made. He makes ice stamp (or used to make, I don't know if he's still operating) and I asked him if he could make something very special... he said yes. He bought a barspoon online. The tip was interchangeable so it had a screw at the end. So he engeneered pieces that fit that screw and made an ice stamp that fitted. Was pretty complicated but was worth it. With that video, I realize I should ask him if he still makes them... I'm sure he would sell some because I got a lot of questions aboutit.
Truffles On The Rocks oh man that sounds awesome and you definitely deserve that special thing, your cocktails are beautiful. I guess I’ll just try to get a regular customizable stamp online, that looks dope! Thanks for your videos man
Javis V. Pérez look for @atmos_icepress on Instagrams. They are awesome and also make icestamps
Truffles On The Rocks sweet, thanks man! Will do!
I've never seen an ice stamp like that before. Would any kind of metal work as one? I assume it's just heat conductivity and pressure that makes them work?
It works exactly like you said. There are many companies now that make custom stamps like that. I think it’s pretty cool! Cheers
Love this video and have been working on my clear ice skills. Can you mention where I can purchase the bar spoon with interchangeable ice stamps? Happy to send you my email if you prefer private mentioning of this.
Sorry I miss you message. Just answered your latest one. But if you want to send me your email, do it through this address.

Cheers!
Great tutorial! I want to find the bar spoon with the impression. I cannot find the link for it. Can you send it? I really enjoy your channel. Very fun and informative.
Yes, please share where to get one! @TOTR
Sorry but how do you spell the name of this cocktail
The Fairmont Old Fashioned?
Truffles On The Rocks thank you I appreciate it I just couldn’t find a written recipe for it
Just try to put hot water, it should help to avoid bubbles
I personally think that this tip doesn’t make any difference in the end result
nothing you mentioned is listed "below" the dICE is not there, nor is the japanese ball machine
Yo, this is great! Call me crazy but the Jack Daniels Single Barrel Proof taste like Bananas, and the Plantations Pineapple Rum taste, well like Pineapple, that would be a pretty crazy variation? I can't wait to go home and try it!!!
Dude! That sounds great! I totally agree with you about that! The Mount Gay XO also taste like super ripped bananas! Ok I'm thirsty LOL
Truffles On The Rocks I’m going to buy the single barrel and let’s see how it goes
Where the hell do you even get an ice stamp like that
I got it custom made a few years ago
Hey look guys its mixologist joshua weissman
Totally down with that! Especially if that means I’ll have 1million subs in a year haha!
Wow! Thanks for this! I live with my family of 4 and unfortunately I don’t have the freezer space for a big cooler and if I’m being honest, cutting my own ice probably isn’t the best idea cause I’m so clumsy😂. Saw the site, and it seems like all their products are sold out😔 looks like we’ll have to wait for the restock!
I didn't expect them to be out of stock. I sent them a message to see if they are planning on restocking anytime soon. Will keep you guys informed as soon as I get more details. Cheers! And yeah, if you are clumsy, don't play with ice pics ;) HAHA!!!
I reached out to them and unfortunately, their facilities including all their stock and tools burned down a couple months back. They are in the process of setting everything back up, but it could be a while before they are fully operational again.

Just so everyone knows.. their is a machine that makes clear ice cubes. Luma Comfort Portable Clear Ice Maker While it wont do LARGE ice so you can make balls.. it will do standard clear ice if thats all you want. They sell it on amazon.
Interesting
😩😩😩 dICE products are sold out. They look perfect for my mini fridge
Just realized it. I sent them a message to see if they will restock soon. Will keep you guys informed as soon as I have more details
Oxygen Evaporate what?
😳
Yeah well water can contain 0.01% of oxygen dissolved but with tap systems, that are under lots of air pressure, the air content can be way higher. It is not dissolved oxygen but trapped oxygen. The reason why, if you leave a glass of water sitting on the counter, it will have a lot of little bubbles after a while. So that trapped air, if you leave your water sitting on the counter, will loose some of it which will result in a clearer ice.
Your suggestions for getting the oxygen out of water will be ineffective. If you want to get the oxygen out you could boil the water and let it cool or use a 'vacuuvin' type device for putting the water under vacuum and Degas it that way. Leaving it on the counter or stirring it will not do anything to Degas it.
Rum in an old fashioned?
To get the most out of this video... skip all the BS and go to 12:10
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching till the end though haha!
Way too many words.
He doesn't have nearly enough info for 12 minutes. A lot of uninteresting fluff. I don't even care what tips he has at the end. Only made it to 3 mins in
apenas empiezo el video mas vale q no tenga q comprar ninguna maquinita yankee
0:26 lrpmqtp
please - no hands - i am getting dizzy
Meaning?
JUST FUCKING SHOW ME ads and such up till about 5 min in.
Blah blah blah blah ,too much of talking then come the ads
Lol "sustainable" clear ice, "no waste" ... I don't get the concept 😅
I guess you didn’t watch the video then.
@@TrufflesOnTheRocks Nope, bf and I launched into a long laughter filled convo about it because we couldn't get past the title lol
WoW
