#13 Instant Ice
Supplies: bottled water, glass or ceramic bowl, plastic tray, ice cubes, freezer
- Put water bottles in the freezer and set a timer for two hours. Lay them on their sides for the best results without denting them.
- Remove the water bottles from the freezer before they freeze. They are ready when crystals form when you shake the bottles.
- Place a ceramic bowl upside down on a tray. The tray will catch the extra water.
- Place an ice cube on top of the pouring surface.
- Then SLOWLY pour while instant ice forms!
How does it work?
When the freezing temperature is reached, water molecules form ice crystals.
We put an ice cube on the bowl because water molecules freeze more easily on existing ice crystals. These crystals grow and eventually freeze the entire bottle of water.
