Serious question here:
How in the world can ice be different temperatures? Slow melt ice? I can see where shape of the ice (block vs cubes) could make a little difference, but ice is just frozen water. Once that water reaches 32 degrees it turns to ice. That ice whether it stays in the freezer at 31 degrees or -100 degrees is still ice and no chemical change takes place after 32 degrees because the water molecules have already frozen You take the same ice out of a 31 degree freezer and a -100 degree freezer and place it out in the sun, they are both going to melt at the same rate. If there was salt or something mixed in with the ice, the ice would be colder because it would take a lower temp to freeze, but it also would start melting at a higher temp so would be counterproductive. |

You can take Ice made by a few diffrent machines and you will find that some hold better than others...My Ice Machine does not make solid ice like my buddies and his Ice holds longer than mine all the time

I think a lot of the difference with ice is how it is stored before you buy it. If the ice is coming from a dispenser, that ice is typically stored in a bin that has no refrigeration. The ice itself is the only thing keeping it cold. The ice storage boxes you find at convenience stores are typically freezers that control the temp.

So, the ice is already in the melting phase when you buy it, gotcha

if you take a bag of ice from the big ice machines on side of the road and put it in a deep freezer it will freeze it solid and it will last alot longer, that ice always tends to be wet and melting when you first buy it.

Funny (to me) story, my mother has an ice machine for their office and she gets ice every Friday and if she comes down here she brings a chest full of it every time. If there is a family get together she always brings the ice from her work. She calls it 'the good ice' That is her contribution to every function is the good ice. We make fun of it but anyways Cool story bro

DuckB... my mother in law does the same thing. She calls it "good ice" too. Kinda like the ice you get at sonic.

The Ice at Canes is the best.
Slo-Melt Ice is just bigger chunks, You put that in a cup and you aint going to have any room for Pop, plus when the cube slides down it sometimes bust ya lip open. |

Same Motherinlaw
DuckB/SalteRedneck.....Sounds weird. Maybe you both got same motherinlaw.
Today, I tried to lift a Yukon Extreme about 54 qts. That ***** was so heavy while empty I would never be able to lifted it with anything in it. I may regret saying this, but I am starting to side with "W" on this issue! |

Slo Melt ice is a brand in SE Louisiana. It is in big chunks rather than small cubes so it really does melt slower

Ice that freezes cloudy will not last as long as ice that freezes clear...that is a FACT
You want your ice to freeze from inside out...not outside in..(Cloudy ice)
