To chill beer quickly...

 

Add ordinary table salt to a cooler filled with ice, water, and beer. That will drop the water temperature to about 22 degrees farenheit and cool beer in about 6 minutes.

thanks. makes a lot of sense, once you think about it ...

wouldnt making the water temperature 22 degrees F make it very difficult to get your beers out of the cooler?

 

Surprised I am the first to catch AD on the fact that the water would be frozen at that temp.

It a combination of time, temperature, and chemicals that interfere with aqueous crystallization. :w00t:

Hence the reason you add the table salt. Hello? Is this thing on?

So do you just drop your 12 pack right in the ocean to save time and money on salt? Or do the walruses still run things over by the ocean shore?

Freezing Point Depression:

 

A colligative property that the freezing point of a solution is lowered by the concentration m of solute (measured in molals) according to:

 

deltaT=Km

 

 

where K is the molal freezing point depression. For water,

 

K[H2O] = 1.86 deg C/molal

Awesome advice, AD...

 

To take it one step further, may I suggest squeezing a few limes in there as well...

 

I always enjoy an ice cold beer with lime and salt.

 

:lol:
