      I just go the reply from Coleman Product Management that the plastic is NOT BPA-free - so I thought this might be an important info to share with the people that are interested in using the cooler for making ice cubes

    Now this is how to make a video. It got straight to the point. It was not self-indulgent as the focus was on the content, not the presenter’s face.
    Nice simple technique too. No need to buy overpriced clear ice makers. The guy who made this video would be good company.

  • @Skeletomania
    @Skeletomania 8 лет назад +314

    How to make crystal clear ice.
    Step 1: fill cooler with water.
    Step 2: empty your freezer to make room for cooler
    Step 3: Wife finds out you threw away all the frozen food, and hopelessly yell at you for hours.
    .
    .
    .
    Last step: enjoy your beverage alone, and look at the camera w/ a hollow smile. Because you realize your wife finally left you for good when she got tired of restocking the freezer whenever you have an urge to make fancy ice.
    just kidding, love your videos ; )

    For huge ice balls for scotch - the real simple extention of this method is to use tall insulated stainless steel coffee mug. The difficult part to find one with straight neck.
    Fill it with water, put in a freezer. Wait a day. Turn over and gently tap over the sink. The top 1/3 - 1/2 will slide out as single block of clear ice. The only trick is not too wait too long - you don't want more than top 1/2 frozen

    how do i make cloudy ice? i only have clear ice :s

    • @GewoonGamings
      @GewoonGamings 8 лет назад

      +DeathlyDiJ It's actually a different concept, ice is transparant, when light enters 1 small ice cube i just goes through and the ice cube stays transparant. When light enters 1 ice cube next to lots of ice cubes the light goes in in a different angle and doesnt go through but keeps on reflecting through all ice cubes, and in the reverse prism of light, the colour is white. that's also the reason why a cube is more clear than a ball as a ball reflects differently.

    • @GewoonGamings

    @Ravenspawn2000 7 лет назад

    Just tried this yesterday. but I just did a little cut on the top end of the ice block, so the ice kept splitting up uneven.
    But I used a knife with a uneven blade and a tiny hammer, so I will have to upgrade those to something better for my next attempt.
    I did end up with 2 bags full of beautiful clear random shaped ice cubes. It is quite fun and the ice looks so much cooler then that old dull cloudy ice cubes you get.

    So...i got here because I'm reading a book where the main character drinks Old Fashioneds everyday, was curious about the drink, found your Old Fashioned video and was fascinated by the ice in your drinks! I love falling down the rabbit hole to learn new things especially when it starts with my #1 hobby/pastime of reading "smut"! Lol...great tutorials by the way! I'm off to purchase the ingredients! 😍

    Actually even if you don't care about how your ice looks, clear icecubes are still way better than cloudy icecubes. Since there's no air bubble inside clear icecubes, they are denser and cooler, which makes them melt slower than normal icecubes, so your drink won't get watered down too quick.

    • @brunotvrs
      @brunotvrs 8 лет назад +14

      +TaiwanBro 好色龍 I think the water resulting from melting because of the trapped bubbles would stay trapped inside the ice cube. Only the ice in contact with the drink will dillute it when melting... Also, that dillution is linked to the chilling of the drink. So... no melting = no chilling the drink!

    • @agestam
      @agestam 8 лет назад +14

      +Bruno Siqueira well... when you serve the drink it accually doesn't matter that much, if you have decent ice to begin with. the melting goes faster the more area the ice have to the drink. that's why one big sphere is the best way to go.
      how ever, if you are shaking the ice, it's waaaay better to use clear ice. the ice is much harder and wont crush in the shaker. if the ice gets crushed, it ends up diluting the drink alot!
      happy mixing!

    • @brunotvrs
      @brunotvrs 8 лет назад +6

      agestam
      I can agree with the shaking argument, but that same link also says why big spherical ice isn't always good: as you drink it gets exposed to the atmosphere, which makes the ice melt and dilutes the drink without the benefit of chilling it, as it's chilling the air.
      I guess one could argue that chilling the air makes the drink stay cooler for more time, since it's not gaining as much heat from the atmosphere.
      I suspect the differences are all too subtle to matter, anyway... Just pour the ice and drink! If it gets too diluted, add more of the drink! Hahahah

    I'm hooked on clear ice. Since I've been making it, I can't have a bourbon with out it. I make and cut large cubes and rectangles. I have a silicone tray that makes 2 in balls. I cut holes, in the bottom of each mold sphere . It just floats in the cooler so it stays in the clear ice zone. Just make sure the molds are topped off with water.
